i actually have planned on buying a belly dancing dvd to do when i have time. i tried to find a place around town that does dance for adults, but no luck. that's not aerobic activity, it's actually anaerobic, but it's getting you active. i used to do it when i was in middle school, but had to stop b/c i had to have surgery on my feet. so i'd like to get back into it.

I'm not sure where you live but I go to 24 hours fitness and they offer a belly dancing class-it's worth checking out!

i think i mentioned earlier (don't remember) that i have a free membership to the ymca in my area. we don't have a 24hr fitness around here. anyhow, i can't afford it. I like the thought though. I know they have tried to do pilates at our ymca, but i've heard it's not great. my cousin is giving me her tapes instead.

also, i've been really bad today eating wise. i had some chicken strips and fries from wendy's. i feel so guilty. i need to work out, but i just hate to. i think i need to live on the beach so i can go do water sports all the time.

I hear you on the gym at work thing. They place I work now has one (very tiny), but it is the best thing in the world to go take a yoga class at noon. I wish more companies would do it!

We are moving our office in about 1 month and I made sure that the new location had one also because O don't know what I would do without it.

Finally went back to WW today after missing 2 weeks.

I lost 3.8 punds!

ETA: Those WW Fruities candies are only 1 point per pack (so you can eat a whole pack! ) and they are really tasty too!

Maybe you can dance with the Teletubbies and count that as activity points!!

I'm thinking of going back to WW next week. I'm afraid I have gained back all I lost this time last year.

YOU are one sick puppy! LMAO!! I forgot to post Saturday that I lost 2.8 pounds. This my first week of Weight Watcher after about 4 years. I'm so excited.

Don't be scared Tinydancer. You have all of us here to support you. Here's a big Tellietubbie hug for you.

OMG...you said it just like them! LOL.

I need to work out. I wish it would warm up so I could go walking/jogging. I walked last weekend but right now it's 25 degrees! If it warms up by lunch I'll take a walk.

Are you girls still working out???

I haven't been working out. I need to get back in the gym but I can't get motivated. I hate even thinking about going to the gym.
I know my gym has a cardio hip-hop class that I would like to try, but it's on wednesday nights and I coach girls hockey on wednesday nights. Our season is almost over so I hope to try that class when hockey is done.

I was going to try and go today and then I said screw that!

I need to get remotivated. I haven't been counting points at all so I just go up and down over and over. Any tips for remotivation?

Need motivation? See http://www.mypetfat.com and order a blob of body fat (replica) to carry around with you to remind you of why you're trying to lose weight in the first place.

This is what 5 lbs. of fat looks like:



To think.. I've lost 32 of these. God. I'm SO glad I decided to go to WW!
