Weight loss results? I was wondering how many of you are loosing weight, over what amount of time, and how many times a week do you Zumba?

I started doing Zumba a few years ago with my girlfriends in a live setting after gaining 20 pounds in college. After taking Zumba classes for a few months, I noticed I was getting more toned- not necessarily losing weight. However, the workout inspired me to do more- running, horseback riding, weight training- and I now weigh ten pounds less than I did in high school (so I lost 30 pounds altogether). I am now a size 2/4. I workout regularly with Zumba, and when I can't get to the gym. It's a great great tool- the cardio aspect is amazing and you WILL sweat. I can promise that you'll have a lot more energy and that you will probably lose some weight, too! All you have to do is stick with it :) Good luck!

If you are eating healthy you can loose up to, 2 inches and 3-4 pounds per week! I lost 2 inches and 4 lbs the first week!

I'm not a mom and I know you wanted to know if mother's have gotten toned from doing Zumba but I just wanted to say I've done both the Zumba and Zumba Exhilarate for three weeks in a row for 5 days each and haven't lost or gained anything. I know in both you work with the toning sticks. I just have regular 3lb weights which gets harder the longer you use them for these two videos. The Zumba 'Sculpt & Tone' will have you heaving if you're not in top shape. The Zumba Ripped is extremely low impact so I don't see why they call it 'ripped' when you barely break a sweat. I'm not in tip top shape but I know the Ripped DVD is too easy to do and don't see how you can get 'ripped' from it.

I just started about a week ago. I lost 2.2 pounds this week. This is not meant to replace diet and exercise. It is meant to aid in weight management and help with hot flashes. I am on Weight Watchers and walk 6 days a week. I was not seeing more than a pound or so a week. Menopause does change our bodies and metabolism. So, I will see if the additional weight loss continues next week, but I was definitely feeling less cravings. There is no magic pill for weight loss. It takes work. But, if this helps, while I do all of the other steps, I will be grateful.

Hi, Travis. I bought this product to help me out with my routine. (I go to the gym 4-5 times a week for about 1.5 hrs each time) this product does not work AT ALL. At least for me.I Took it as directed, no energy and no fat burning affects. I took the entire bottle hopping that maybe it was one of those products that will have to built up in your system. So I went back to my regular supplements. But as you may already know! There is no magic pill or drink that will help lose weight if you are not regularly exercising and dieting... I wish you the best of luck and hope you achieve your goals :) Hi, Travis. I bought this product to help me out with my routine.

I have used UltraMeal in a detox program and lose 20+ pounds in two weeks. I have done this twice. Check out my review, I posted the program.

I have never lost weight on a bike. Never, ever, ever. Watch, I think, the NOVA program on preparing for the Boston Marathon. NONE of the people lost weight. There are other benefits. I tried doing this in front of the TV - apparently we are suppose to be moving every 20 mintues (from the book, Every Twenty Minutes) and that will supposedly get me to better health. But.... Hey, if you are in SF, I'd sell you mine for 75 bucks.

May have lost a little weight but our biggest advantage has been firming up. Arms much firmer and the waist line is shrinking, we do about 50 crunches a day. If you are looking for weight loss this is not the way to go.

With any type of weight lost product, exercise "speeds" up the weight loss, but actually I did not at first and lost weight ... just not very fast. I wanted faster weight loss and I had more energy to exercise, so I did.

over the last 6 months I have lost 32 pounds using Hydroxycut gummies. I haven't changed my eating habits except to perhaps cut back some on sweets. my physical handicap prevents exercise so that has not been an issue.

I am still using the old version. I have lost 5.5 pounds the first 10 days. I eat normally but cut out processed carbs (bread cereals etc). Mostly protein fruit & vegetables nuts. I exercise 30mins a day 5 days. So i am not putting a huge effort in to it , but am still loosing on the old formula .

I have not lost any weight! I don't have time to exercise. I think my body needs some type of movement in order to lose weight. I have gained instead of losing.

I lost 2 lbs in the first 7 days. I also go to the gym 3-4 times a week. A 500 calorie diet sounds crazy. Almost like you can eat one or two things and that's it. I will say they curb your appetite so good that you can eat 500 calories because your not really hungry and when you do eat you get full fast. Drink plenty water. So to be honest, I don't know how people are losing 7-10 lbs in the first week. I know I can't. hope this helps

Hi Cassie - sorry to say I lost nothing :0( I was hoping it would help - I exercise weekly and watch my calorie intake, so I was very disapointed. Even 10 lbs. would have been nice :0(

Hi all,i am thinking of buying the Zumba total transformation system for a workout to add to my elipitical trainer. I currenlty have the Zumba for xbox and between fighting my 7y old for the TV,and anyone else who wants to watch a program I am a little frustrated. I would like to lose 40 to 50 pounds by May and I am hoping this will help. I see a lot of reviews but my husband thinks I should stick with the xbox version instead of purchasing this one. Any advice on if this system works or if its comparable to the game?

I am in the middle of week 3 and so far have lost 18 lbs. My goal is to get down to around 250 (began the program @ 318). As one poster has already mentioned cutting out the soda (and may I add, chips and other snack food) goes a long way to losing the flab. If you have not purchased the program, go ahead, you will not be disappointed, but be prepared to work. In the first week, I hated yoga. Falling over every time i moved a body part, couldn't keep straight this postion or that position, but after the 3rd time, i was not falling over as much, my balance had improved and so has my flexibility. Now I look forward to the yoga portion. I am in the middle of week 3 and so far have lost 18 lbs. My goal is to get down to around 250 (began the program @ 318).

I saw a loss if inches within the first 30 days. I did lose approximately 25 pounds and was very pleased with the changes in my body which was noticed by friends and family. I am started the program again! You too will see pleasing results.
