  1. Hi Everyone I'm a Zumba instructor and it's fun. The 1st exercise that's nonjudgemental. You don't have to know the step as long as you are moving and having fun that all that counts. It's better with a group of people than by yourself. I you go by yourself with 5minutes you will have a friend. so you will not feel alone. I say go for it. ZUMBA
  2. I'm not hating on you I'm so proud of you. It's people like you that give others motivation. Eventhough the thought of I wish it was me. Good job and keep up the good work.:w00t:
  3. Good Job Kim good motivation. I need your encouragement:thumbup:
  4. I had been at a still still since December also only because. I stopped exercising and started eating the wroong foods. I just started working out again and hopefully I will stick to it. I had to go get an unfill on yesterday because I was vomiting in my sleep. Having heart burn real bad. That was going since my last fill in february and was just getting worst. She took out 0.25cc and I feel so much better but I'm able to eat more food. I was satified before. But being too tight will not help you lose weight it causes complications.
  5. Hi everyone I am a Zumba instructor. Yes Zumba is alot of fun. You don't have to know all the steps as long as you keep moving. Some people put there own steps in while dancing to the music. When people make a mistake they just laugh and continue dancing. I promise you no one will be making fun. Yes Zumba is fun for all shapes and sizes. Please don't think you are to big or weigh too much to do Zumba. You are just having fun, making friends and losing weight while you do it. Please try it. you may like it. I'm an instructor and I'm not skinny still over 200lbs.
  6. Hi everyone, I just want to say that you haven't given up and you are not a failure. 1st of all you all have noticed your problems and then you asked for help/advice. I failure is one who don't try and just quit. You all haven't given up. You are speaking out. That is a good thing. To Sally The trip to Hawaii with get you motivated. It is so beautiful there I didn't want to leave. I next we are going to New Orleans for Mardi Gras and We haven't seen our classmates in 22yrs. We are planning to reunite. I'm not giving up. I feel great. I haven't lost what I wanted to loss at this time but I'm definately not giving up. Everybodys body respond differently. Everything happens for a reason. We all will be okay. We are winniners and we just have to make it to the finish line.
  7. I stayed over night because I lived 4 hrs away and My Dr. wanted to make sure everything was okay before letting me go. Also I had an planned Hiatel Hernia repair. I felt better staying.
  8. Hi I have the EA Active and got the Wii Fit Plus for Christmas. The active is fun and I haven't done too much with the Fit plus but I did do the analysis and the stepper that is the furthest I've gotten. I have to say this the Wii Fit Plus Gives you your BMI it tells you hot OBESE you are and it gives you your BODY age. It aged my body 9 years older. It told me I had a body of a 50 year old. That mean I have some work to do. It makes you want to just pick it up and throw it out the door or go with the challenge and improve your body. :biggrin:
  9. Hi everyone we have made through another year I ended the year with a gain of 1.5 lbs that put me at 208 lbs. Now that the holidays are over I have to work on one that. Congrats to those of you who reached their goals, mini goals and the big ONEDERLAND. Happy New Years to you all. I have a lot to be thankful for. I am living and breathing, I can get up and exercise, I CAN LOSE THE WEIGHT I always wanted to lose; Thanks to my assistant THE BAND. I feel good, my health have improved. I don't have high blood pressure, high blood sugar, or high cholesterol. I can walk up the stairs without getting tired. I can ride in the car without my back being in extreme pain. This year I will feel even better, if The Lord say the same. I hope you all have a positive new year and I want to leave this thought with you. Do Unto Others As You Have Them Do Unto You. Think Positive Don't Give Up. Last but not lease you are only a failure if you give up. So remember if you fall just get up and start again. This road is not alway easy. You WILL have stumbling blocks. But you are stronger and you can make your way through those blocks. Thank you for reading my blog and will be looking to read more of yours. Until next time. Please share my page.

  11. Congrats on your approval and best wishes on your weight loss journey. I will be looking forward to seeing your success
  12. Have they check you to see if you have a hiatal hernia? If so it can be repaired during your lapband surgery.
  13. I haven't had those symptoms but if you are going to have an endoscopy yes you need someone to drive you home because of the medications they will give you.
  14. Restriction is when the amount of food you take in is restricted and you are satisfied for about 3-4 hrs without getting hungry.
