Zumba - first time



Recommended Posts

I've been doing Zumba for 3 years now and I LOVE it! If you can't do the moves just keep moving until you learn the routines. As long as you are moving you are exercising and the music is great! I had no moves until I started doing Zumba. And no one cares if you are a beginner, just do what you can and keep going back!

that is so true! I've been to classes before where if you don't know what you're doing, or you can't keep up, it can be uncomfortable. Zumba is NOT like that. It's fun and easy going. And every class I've gone to has some people doing basic step work and some who are really into it. I've always felt really comfortable even when it gets a little too tough for me . :)

I have been doing Aqua Zumba a few times a week for the past year (except for right after surgery) and it has been fantastic. Like many of you, I was concerned about normal Zumba, which I plan on switching to soon, but doing it in the pool has been great exercise, helped me understand the basics of Zumba and has been easier on my joints since I am still pretty big. I go to the YMCA, I highly encourage you to check it out, so fun and easy.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
