Jumping out on faith....

Apr 27, 2010

Yep, that's what I'm gonna do.

For some odd reason, and its not really odd actually, but I can honestly say, I really feel like working out....and I mean working out hard. Not the usual non-sweat thing I do, but some serious, blood pouring, breast wetting, sweat! LOL.
I'm going to attribute this new burst of energy to the Zumba classes. The class I went to last night was taught by the same lady that taught my Saturday class. Big difference from Saturday to Tuesday....apparently Saturday was a "light" class. That woman....Rachel....worked the fool hell out of me. I mean seriously. I was sweating....and I don't know if I mentioned before, but I don't really sweat....at least that's what I believed all these years.  It was an even better atmosphere than Saturday too. Granted we were in a gymnasium, this one was bigger, equipped with a radio station that just happened to be making a DVD of the whole "experience", and they had it set up like a night club. Granted it was more of a work out, but I loved it. It was at least 100 of us in there, and there were more men too...yummy :0)
They were probably there because of all the booty poppin. There was so much coochie shaking, I thought I was going to dislocate my uterus....at one point I think I felt it shift, lol. No lie!

When I got home and got in that shower...automatic heaven, however when I laid in that bed, I just prayed that God would allow my body to move today, because I know Sunday I was walking around like I had just had a C-Section.

So today, not only do I feel good....crazy as it may seem, I feel like doing it again; maybe not the Zumba class, but I feel like working out again today...I don't usually feel like this. I'm a scale whore, I'll admit it. I'm on the scale every morning and every night when I take a shower. I don't feel bad either way the scale reads, I just like to have an idea of where I'm at. Since I've upped my workout routine, I think in  the last couple of days, or at least since Saturday, I've lost like 3-4 lbs, which is remarkable, because I've just been letting my weight take its course...not doing anything special.

So today I feel like running. Actually I've been feeling like that a lot lately....like I just want to take off. But just like the elliptical, I've been apprehensive because obviously I don't want people looking at me like I'm crazy...but I can't really care about that can I? I told my SIL last night, that any other time, in a class like Zumba, I'd be sooo body conscious about what was jiggling or if anyone was watching my flab have a mind of its own....but now I don't care. I'd dropped over 40 lbs, and I feel like I've come so far from where I was, I could really care less if someone is watching me....watch on!!! I'm doing the damn thang!!!

So at some point this week, and that really just leaves today, Thursday and Friday, I plan on running....if I don't bust my ass open.....I'll be reporting on that.....jumping on faith...right, lol.

Wish me luck lol

Until next time
