<p>The beauty of Zumba is that it is all about shaking your big ole' (or little) a$$ while working up a sweat. It doesn't matter if you can master the moves or the rhythm, it's about having fun, shaking your thang and having a great time. Do what you can, march to the rest and SMILE!!!<br><br>
I love love love Zumba, I sucked at it at 264 pounds and I am a little better at it at 152 pounds. Either way, it's the funnest of all funs in MY opinion. <br><br>
shake it!!</p>
Love this response!!!! Ty and you are so right. Zumba is fun and doesn't matter if you hit all the moves.....as long as you are moving!!!!!
My sleeve is September 10th!!! Currently on my 2nd week of 4 Pre op diet!!!!!

Hi im getting my on September 10 because my surgeon went on vacation but im happy insurance approve my surgery thats all that matter ....I need a buddy toHey Everyone!
My name is Katarina, I'm 26 and I live in Minnesota! Just met with my surgeon today to schedule my VSG! I chose Tuesday, September 2nd, the day after Labor Day! My pre-op liquid diet starts Saturday, August 23rd. Wondering if anyone else is having surgery on or around this date? I would LOVE to have a surgery buddy! Someone who is going through what I am, when I am, so we can help each other out! Also, if anyone has an Instagram, my user name is liberianne_gal. I follow tons of amazing men and women who have went through Weight Loss Surgery and have fantastic stories! Can't wait to create my own!
Hope to talk to some of you soon!
Katarina

<p>Soooooo, how's everyone doing on this thread with loosing weight on your/our own? I started in mid-February and I've lost 12-15 (depending on day of the month) pounds with just cutting down on carbs, skipping some Desserts and walking/jogging a couple times a week. I'm logging on mfp. Clothes fitting better.....Just 2 more months to meet insurance qualifications....</p>
OK here is an update... My surgery was approved!!!! I will have surgery September 10th... I start my Optifast Sat Aug 9 until September 8th.... I had my EGD on Last Friday. I have to lose 13.6lbs by September 2nd. But with only eating and drinking the Optifast products, I should be able to do it...I've heard really good things about it. How is everyone else doing on their journey????¿

I am so glad I found this topic! I am 10 days post op and I too have cheated. I felt like crap!!! But I have to remind myself that this is brand new and I went through too much to fail and that everyday is a new day. We are not alone. Just remember we all decided we needed this for yourself! I have to learn the best ways to use my tool!!!
