Man that is ridiculous. There is no need to sell drugs if one can get certified to be a personal trainer doing pilates.

All that said- great workout- it really worked muscles I don't usually focus one and I feel it in my core today. It just ain't 100 DOLLARS worth of great.

I fit into my very favorite business suit that I haven't worn in two years today. It was a wonderful feeling.
You know what kills me about this? One of my Pilates instructors told me that when you don't use the machine, you depend on your own muscles more for the workout and so you get a better workout. I thought to myself, "How do y'all make money, cuz who would choose the lesser workout that costs more money?????" It doesn't make sense? They never have to worry about me bein' on a machine. Ball class or mat class. That's it.

I've lost another pound. In 6lbs, I will be at a HEALTHY weight according to my BMI. I'm happy!!! Untoned flab and all, I'm still happy!!!
