Aye, yup, that definitely made me smile!
Just wanted to update everyone (mostly to share, but also to help keep myself motivated by making all y'all "accountability" partners *grin*):
I'm wicked blessed to have a gym and certified trainers on location at work (not to mention a massage therapist who comes in twice a month - love her!!!!). Today is the start of week 2 on a new strength training program consisting of both free weights and equipment for arms, shoulders, back and legs, along with ab and quad work on the stability ball, step-ups, and lower-back floor-work.
I'm totally lovin' it! I specifically asked the trainer to incorporate exercises to strengthen my lower back and the muscles that support my knees so I could become a stronger belly dancer. She quirked an eyebrow, but did as I asked.
In a very promising start - I lost two pounds the first week!
I'll keep y'all updated.
