Changes...again

I quit P90X. I just can't do it. It wasn't a good fit for me, and I didn't have fun doing it, which always makes it worse. But I did learn a lot, and I know that I can do some of that on my own.

But as I promised, I am not quitting exercising. No no no.....far from it. I'm still not happy with the weight I'm at, and I'm determined to shed these pounds! I'm just stuck in a rut...

Today I signed up for zumba, which is an exercise dance routine based on salsa, merengue, cumbia, reggaeton and other international music styles and forms. (yes, I pulled that completely off of wikipedia. I'm pretty sure no one has ever heard of reggaeton before.)

I had SO MUCH FUN. I was exhausted and sweating and thirsty, but I was so disappointed when class ended!! I could have gone another half an hour! It really was a blast... I'm considering joining the Wednesday night group - the only thing is it's an extra $20, so I'm still on the fence on that one.

But seriously, I think I've found what I've been wanting!! So I'm super excited about that...

I found my hip-hop dvd too, so I'm thinking about pulling that one out. I tried it once, realized there wasn't a single hip-hop bone in my body, and put it away. It's one of those things where it's embarrassing enough that you ONLY do it when no one is home. :) For the record, there will be NO video demonstrations.

I may attempt another 5K this weekend - we'll see how diligent I am about getting up in the morning to go for my run. So far, it hasn't been good, but with the race only 4 days away, I better kick it in gear!!
