Dance Recital!!

I promised myself when I lost 100 lbs, I would sign up for dance classes, and dance in a recital.  Well, last night I accomplished this major goal!  We did a jazz number to Gnarls Barkley's "Crazy".  I have to say, I was happy, excited and terrified at the same time!!  I've posted some pics in my profile- I think I look pretty darn cute in my costume, although I would have preferred one with rhinestones and sequins! I promised myself that when I lost 200 lbs, I would take figure skating lessons.  Well, I am down 175 lbs - so stay tuned!!

that is awesome!! what nice goals you have for yourself :) and each goal can actually be considered exercise but with a ton of fun involved -- good luck to you :)  Roberta

Thanks Roberta!  I actually gave up my gym membership so that I can take more dance and yoga classes.  I like the results I am seeing through dance and yoga better than when I was lifting weights/ doing cardio machines at the gym. 

WHAT "NO PICTURES"  OF WHAT YOU HAD TO WEAR, COME ON NOW,  POST THE PICTURE.    THANKS!! BRIDGET   K.

Hi Bridget: Check out my profile - I posted a few pics there.  I am not computer savy enough to post them on the message board

OH!  MY GOD,     LIKE A DIFFERENT PERSON.   WHAT A BEAUTIFUL LADY,  BEAUTIFUL SMILE YOU HAVE. MY DAUGHTER WOULD GET A KICK OUT OF THIS.  SHE HAS DANCED FOR OVER 20 YEARS.   JUST NOW TRYING TO GET BACK INTO IT.   SHE LOVES IT. GOOD FOR YOU MY FRIEND. BRIDGET  K.

Thank you so much Bridget - you're making me blush!!

NAY,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,JUST ENJOY IT. GOOD FOR YOU. BRIDGET K.

Elisa that is fantastic, I love your story!  I am still in the early stages of my journey.....waiting to get approval......and I can't wait to do all the things that my weight has not allowed me to. I used to ice skate and I miss it so much, and I love dancing.....so we definitely share some of the same goals. Your story has inspired me so much that I just had to tell you. I hate exercise but love to dance so I will be looking for a dance group around here, after I get close to goal that is. (100lbs) Thanks so much for sharing and i wish you continued success. Eileen

Thank you so much Eileen!
