Okay so I fell of the wagon, I have had no portion control for the last week and a half and I have not been moving enough. Just yoga once a week and sporadicly a bit of pilates at home. I studied my habits and motivation and came to the conclusion that I am not motivated when I have no goal. My initial goal was to reach a healthy BMI now that I accomplished that I am suffering from lack of motivation. I decided to reach for an old hearts desire. My ultimate goal is to take up ballet again. I haven't danced in 11 yrs!! I used to dance a few times a day (jazz ballet, african dance and my favorite classical ballet) then I got pregnant with son#1 and got really really ill. I never fully recovered since the pregnancy triggered my anemia. Anyway I am straying from subject. I will start balletlessons in september of 2008. Wich means that I have 8,5 months to get lithe!
1st goal is to re-teach myself this stretch
2nd goal is to re-teach myself this one
Well enough goals to reach for now, I will be keeping you posted on the progress.
I am soooo exited by the thought of buying a ballet outfit next summer! I used to visit this lil shop
almost weekly when I was a dancer and I was shocked that they didn't go bankrupt when I stopped dancing LOL
Blessings,

Wow! I've love to be able to do either of those stretches. Did you use to do ballet as a child? I really wish my mother had sent me for lessons I think classical trained dancers move so well. Even in just working, and proper posture is just second nature whereas it is something I am trying to teach myself at the moment and finding it really difficult.
Yes I started taking lessons when I was 4 and I continued to take lessons (recreational) till I was 15. When I was 15 I stopped being a recreational dancer and started at the dance academy taking lessons a few times a day, and teaching lower classes. My dream was to travel the world with a large classical ballet company but that bubble was burst when I got pregnant at 19. The pregnancy did not go well and I had a long recovery period so I never went back.
