Healthy Weight Loss

I don't usually stay for the meetings. I have not run into what Starryeyes and Medusa have, so I cannot comment on that. It may be more like that for weekend meetings, but I go over my lunch hour.

Starryeyes congrats on keeping the 50 off. That, I believe, in and of itself, is a huge milestone.

I have not been celebrated for my weight loss either. I have no barbells, no stickies... nada. Like nada. But, it is psychological for me to have someone weigh me, look me in the eye, and physically write down my weight. It makes me accountable to me. I admire you ladies who do it online. That would be as inefficient as me saying I would exercise at home... yeah like that would ever happen!! I can hide quite easily, so for me it really is having a witness. This is my second kick at WW and it stuck this time. Any weight loss program I have ever tried to follow on my own, has failed. I just don't have the discipline you guys are demonstrating. Sigh....

For those who have never done Zumba, I highly recommend it. I took it at my local Y in WA and I loved it. Half the class was on a different rhythm than the other and we were all giggling and sweating nearly the whole time (once the initial shyness wore off for the newer folks). It's super fun and you work hard and the hour just flies by.

My class was muuuuuuch better than the one posted.

Just sayin'.

I'm fairly certain Zumba is a cult.
