We went into the room, found our spot and the music started. I noticed that there were other people like me in there. I wasn't the only lubby one. I'm sorry....I know that's not nice. Sooo anyway, the instructor was great! She was full of energy and charisma and you could tell she was having fun! She was very encouraging to those of us that were newby's. Heather and I were in the back so I had a hard time keeping up with the footsteps (because I couldn't see the instructor's feet) but for my first time I thought I did just fine. *This* white girl does have some rhythm and I have always loved to dance. Those of you who've known me for a loooong time....remember the roger rabbit....I kicked it! HAHA!!
Except for the wedgie I got, it really was a fun time and I'm so glad I went. Thank you Heather for inviting me!! :)
On a personal note, I really wanted to say thank you to all of you for your comments and emails on facebook and on here in regards to how I was feeling the last two days. Trying to lose weight is so very hard especially at my age. The lubs want to stay with me instead of going away. I felt guilty for not wanting to get on the treadmill but you guys encouraged me so much by saying it was ok to take a rest day...or two. Thank you so much sweet friends for your prayers also. I have felt them! Today has been much better and I'm so thankful for the sunshine and the promise of some warmer days this weekend and upcoming week. I really do think the sunshine makes all the difference!
Monday is weigh in day and I'm nervous because I didn't work out two days this week, but I have been good with the eating...for the most part. Wednesday I ate just a few more points than I should have but hopefully that won't have ruined me. We'll see on Monday I guess. If I lose some more , than great! If I don't then I'll know to try and work harder. If I have gained....well then I'll just choose to say that I've gained muscle because I have really been watching what I've been eating. The battle of the bulge.....it's tough.
Hope you guys have a great weekend! :)

I've been thinking about trying Zumba too but I have NO rhythm. I just started going to the Y and at my goal planning meeting, she told me don't say things like, I'm going to exercise every day. Instead, say I'm going to exercise 3 times this week. Then you're not setting yourself up for failure and you can work it around your schedule. If you make it more than 3 times a week, you feel better about it! Good luck with it!
