Newbie!

[Bigedz]

Upon looking for ways to diet etc i stumbled upon this community which i think is a brilliant idea! Only joined last night so profile is a bit naked! How is everyone on here! My name is Eddy! Young male looking to loose some pounds off my heavy figure but need some inspiration to get up and go to the gym. Thinking of joining a Zumba class. Anybody done Zumba before?

Hello and welcome to the NHS weight Loss Forum Bigedz

I'd like to invite you to join our Newbie Club, which we hope will be a good place for you to connect with members, who are also just starting out. If you just post a few words to introduce yourself and respond to others there, you'll soon break the ice. Here's the link

You'll find all the information you need to navigate the forum in the header and a link to the 12 week plan, so please take the time to read it carefully.

I’ve never been to a Zumba class, but I have hopeless coordination somwould probabaly be a danger to all concerned! However, I do like to dance and do a mini dance based workout in my living room!

Wishing you all the best

Hi Eddy,

I only started a week ago, so am also just finding my way around on here - everyone seems very friendly and supportive!

I'm generally an exercise-phobe, but I must admit that I love Zumba. Never feels like you're exercising, because it's a good laugh and the music is way better than I normally associate with a class! Hope you can find a good group locally.

Good luck with your goals!

Hi H thanks for your reply. Indeed I have read a few people's posts and they seem to be quite friendly and like yourself just going to try and get used to the website etc. But I'm due to be going with a friend to Zumba so hopefully it is a laugh. Good luck with your goals too!

Hi Eddy

Any exercise where you can have fun AND work up a sweat is a definite yes from me.

Try it out - the more variety in your exercise plan the more likely you are to keep at it.

Hi Dave

Your right! I have seen videos and stuff on Zumba so hopefully the expectation lives up but I do wanna get back into the gym. Just the routine I need to find
