I can eat them. I buy the low carb, whole wheat/whole grain, 98%fat-free tortillas, 80cals per large tortilla.

My BMI starting out was 51 and now it's 39. I would like to lose a total of 140lbs or more.

Good luck

Wishing you a speedy recovery. It does get better

I have two left feet too is why I wanted to try it at home first so I don't TOTALLY humiliate myself at the clas haha! I've been too nervous to go' date=' especially by myself. I guess I need to learn to break out oft shell. I'll let you guys know if it's any good when I get it. :-)[/quote']

I was thinking the same way. Didn't want to look crazy trying to keep up.

good luck and have fun with it. I'll be waiting to hear about your experience

I'm scared to try Zumba! I'm so uncoordinated it's not even funny. To say I have two left feet is an understatement. I've heard you don't have to be a dancer to do it. What do you guys think?

I definitely think you can do it. It's all about having fun. Try it out

It is! I have the same thing and really enjoy it and by the time I am done I am sweating hardcore! Keep up the great work

Thanks! You do the same slim

Do you think the Zumba Rush for Kinect is worth buying?

That's awesome! Do you think Zumba for the wii would give the same results?

I believe so, yes. If you try it out let us know how it goes

Welcome

Great post

Congrats!

Had surgery 5/15/12 and just got my first fill 6/27/12 which is about 6 weeks post op and my next is 8/8/12. Good luck!

Just tried this today and boy oh boy was I sweating! Great workout. My thighs hurt and I felt the burn for sure

I didn't make it through a 60 min dance class but I did a short one and I'm going to work my way up. Lots of fun!

I want one of these so badly... I'm jealous of you all

The one thing i have found that is a huge treat for me is to use Redi Whip' date=' or any whipped cream cannisters. The calories are only 15 for Two Tbs, which is enough to put on top of your coffee and less than one gram of sugar.[/quote']

That sounds yummy.

I belong to Pinterest and have found many recipes for frappacino's' date=' machiato's and iced coffee. Of course, I rearrange the ingredients to fit my meal plan needs. I'm drinking one right now!

Jean's recipe's are really good too![/quote']

I love pinterest!

My favorites:

1. Combine 3 scoops Click Vanilla Latte Protein powder' date=' 1 cup unsweetened almond milk, 1 cup cold Water. Blend and serve over ice.

2. Combine 1 cup cold brewed coffee, 1 cup fat free milk, 2 tbl sugar-free caramel or vanilla Syrup. Serve over ice.[/quote']

Thanks for sharing, I'm going to try #2

I'm looking for a great tasting ice coffee recipe. Anybody?
