Day 2 of my dance party went well, but day 3 I found myself sick most of the day and could only pull energy out to do half the leg lifts I would normally do. Day 4 I didn't Dance because we got a treadmill! (Maybe you read about it in Jamie's new blog ) SO I am still dancing one song with Juju because it is way fun and good to move around....but I am going to primarily be doing the treadmill and leg lifts (YUCK!) Yesterday I did 45 minutes on the treadmill, but I was up a lb today. This may be because whenever I get on the treadmill I tend to drink more fluids and maybe something about muscle over fat. It will drop off...I just have to keep at it. So thankful for the treadmill...and for Jamie who is keeping me motivated!

Dance Party: Day 2
I woke up this morning to find myself at 229 - 2 lbs lighter than yesterday! WOOT!
Today I have probably eaten all the calories that I have allowed myself in a day...so I may be stretching that rule a little today. I ate oatmeal for breakfast, two slices of pizza for lunch (that all put me at about 700 calories) but then Jamie's Dad wanted to take us out to eat. I had an omelet with ham, cheese, and veggies but there were some hashbrowns too...so that alone probably put me over my calorie intake. BUT I am pleased to say Jubilee and I DID have a dance party that lasted about 35 minutes. My knee started hurting halfway through (no I dont have knee problems...I have weight problems) so I decided to try to do more of standing ab work outs and not as much twirling (HAHA) poor Jamie had to witness the entire event. I think that may have cleared up some of my stage fright so maybe....just maybe you will see a clip sometime. But dont hold your breath. If I maintain my weight tomorrow morning I will be more than pleased...but 228 you can come visit anytime!

Exercise Can Be Fun...Right?
I am always hearing things about how great dance is for you, it is supposed to be great cardio. Also I LOVE Zumba and Turbo Jam...SO I am trying something for a week to see how it goes.
I have been eating a consistant diet of 1600- 1900 cals a day. I haven't gained but I haven't really lost either. I have kept the five lbs, that I lost, off. I am going to be as strict as I can with my diet... 1600 a day. AND I am going to have a dance party, with Juju, for a week and see if it helps me lose. This is just an experiment and is for fun. I will dance 45 minutes a day with Juju, to any songs that I choose. I will let you know how it goes! It could be silly...but it's fun regardless and the girls get a kick out of it.
I was at 231 this morning...here we go!
