I don't even have scales. When I lived at my parents' I weight myself at least once a week and it even depends on what time of the day you weigh yourself :confused:

Yeah but if you have a scale that measures body fat (which I know you don't but...)you can see even if your weight goes up as long as body fat doesn't go up, you know it is something else, water, muscle...

Hi Miss Shimmy. I am well, thank you, had to clean out of the rat cages to day, so I need a shower, it is amasing how mutch of a mess they make. How are you?

Stacy, that is true. But normal weights can be a problem to weigh one self all the time. I was thinking aboute both weighing myself, mesuring myself and taking a picture of myself in a bikini and dating the pictures so I both have weight and mesurements, and well as can see on the pictures that my body are shrinking. :)

hi there venefica,ah yes,i had to clean out our rattie today,he loves his home so much and hates leaving it,when we offer him it all clean,he leaps back in like a child on christmas day leaping into their presents,its so cute!!

i am well thankyou,my dance movments are realy starting to come together,I am working up quite a good sweat just improvising with my dancing,building it up,its now up to an hour and 15 minutes.but thats including 15 minutes of callanetics.
an hour of callanetics tomorrow then its rest for the body over the weekend :)

I was practising a ''v step''today,it was soo much fun,well,will be better when i can fully pull it off,repetition being the mother of skill!;)

I've been taught Azizas version and Rachels version. I do both, I use Azizas when I want to go fast and be 'tall' and Rachels I always end up fudging. Rachel taught it like 'point your toes together, away, together, away' and you lean your weight towards the way you want to go. I start out that way then my feet end up both pointing the same way and I end up doing more a heel, toe, heel, toe movement (which looks real dorky if you can see my feet) Gotta work on that still. The 'tribal way' is good for when your moving slowly and looks more like your not moving at all(if you've got a long skirt or pants to cover your feet). Aziza said her secret to the Cab way was to keep all the movement below the knees (which are soft) and work the ankles, this is what makes it look floaty. And of course good control of your upper body posture for both ;)

Venefica: That's an excellent idea. I love seeing pictures of people's progress through their transformation. One of my favorites is one of a woman who went from around 240lbs to a bodybuilder in a year,she was in one of the Body For Life books. I personally believe that people only tell themselves that the camera adds 5 (or more) pounds. :cool:

Hi, I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend. We went to the zoo and did quite a bit of walking. I'm sure my legs will feel it tomorrow. Arabella rode the merry-go-round about 5 times. :D

Miss Shimmy: How nice of your friend to give you the silk! What color is it?I've never made harem pants, although I have made pull on, pajama style pants. I don't think it will be difficult at all for you to make them. :)

Venefica; Glad to hear you had a nice birthday. Hope you were able to get to your mom's. :)

Belly Dancer: You're a busy bee. Good for you! :D

Peace and love to all.
