Can't get enough... ZUMBA!

This past March I was introduced to a workout routine that I simply fell in love with... Not only was it such an intense, great workout, but it was just so much fun! The class lasts an hour, and I could not believe how fast it goes by... especially since my workouts before consisted of me being bored and waiting for enough time to pass at the gym that I could go back home... Not with Zumba :) Let's just say I became an addict...

I noticed results in how I looked and felt really fast, and that is always a plus :) The girls from class (thanks to my cousin Jen) organized a surprise for me at our wedding reception... How many girls can say they did Zumba in their wedding dress??? :)

When my hubby got his new job in July and was working regular hours during the day, I kind of set zumba aside... I was so happy to finally be able to spend the evenings with Dan that I was distracted from how much I missed my favorite workout... Welllllllll I kind of fell back into a slump that was all too familiar from a phase in my life I thought wouldn't surface again... Sleeping too much, mindless eating, etc... Not good for my goals of a healthy lifestyle and losing weight...

So last week my best friend asked what I was doing Friday and I told her that I planned on going to Zumba... and she said she wanted to come with! I was estatic because Manda is a dancer and I knew she would love Zumba too... it just so happened that when I started back in March she was pregnant & just had K at the end of July...

I'm not going to lie I did feel a little nervous walking back into the class... "would I remember anything??" "would I look silly?" "would I be able to make it through the whole class?"... but as soon as that music started for the warm-up I couldn't help but smile... the class was amazing! I was on a "high" the rest of the day... it felt good to be back :)

After I went to the class last night, Dan commented that he already noticed a difference in me... I know this may seem a little silly... but I just can't get enough of it :)
