Will it be enough?

To do 45 minute zumba workouts atleast 4 times a week (1 class and rest on the wii) and to eat small portions with no snacks inbetween?

How gradual would weight loss be?

I'm 5'6/5'7 and weigh about 14 stone (196 pounds)
I class as obese.

I'm a size 16 (UK) and would like to get down to a size 12 at least.

Any help and information would be useful.

Thanks.

Oh im also 16.

I for one am pretty impressed. Four times a week is pretty good. I would also recomend not drinking soda pop anymore. Its really bad for you and will stop you from shedding the weight because of the amount of sugar in it.
I know for me my weight came off in chunks. I would go for like a year without any big progress and then all of a sudden boom. It is going to take time, but I really hope you don't give up.
Good luck.

I never drink soda, i don't like the stuff. My downfall is snacking on savory foods when i get bored.

& Yeah i worry nothing will ever change, seems like i stay the same size all the time.

Hey there, I'm similar to you, I try these workout things on sky tv though, 4 times a week should make you lose anything from 3-4 pounds to 5-6 pounds depending on your eating habits (obvs) I would like to be a 12 aswell, I'm 5'7/5'8 :)
