New trainer alert! Thank goodness. And yes, it's taken this long. Good grief.
I meet with her tonight, so I'll let you know how it goes. We spoke on the phone last night and she seemed pleasant enough, so here's hoping.
-----------------------------------
After an unfortunate run-in with Pizza Hut (emotional eating -- I really shouldn't be shocked) and the resultant sodium bloat, I'm back down where I'm supposed to be, weight-wise. Whew. Dodged that bullet. But just because I dodged it this time doesn't give me a free pass to go loony on the processed gunk, so it's back to normal eating for me.
-----------------------------------
The belly dance group had its hafla this past Wednesday, and our beginners' class had its first public performance. Yipes! Fortunately it was very informal and I appear to have survived. I even plastered a smile on my face for the entire duration of the choreography:
As I said, VERY informal! I'm wearing yoga pants, a coin scarf, and my "Shut Up and Shimmy" tank, along with enough makeup to out-whore any whore in Whoreville. September will bring the school's annual recital, which means not only will we be in full costume (although don't expect to see me in a bra top -- my upper arms still aren't quite ready for primetime :P ), I'm going to have to set my makeup phasers past "call girl" and well into "streetwalker" for stage-level performance. That should be entertaining.
Sorry I'm so brief -- it's a workday and I'm taking shameless advantage of a break in production to crank this out. More later, once I have a better bead on this trainer.
I think I'm broken again

Okay, "out-whore any whore in Whoreville" is best phrase ever blogged. Congratulations!

Freakin' LOVE you!
Look at you!!! Way to Shimmy!
You look great. Looks like a lot of fun:)
LOL -- thanks Jack!
Norma, hah! I love Will Ferrell. Sadly, Choreboy does not. Fortunately he has good taste in about every other way :D
Angela and Leigh, Thanks! I had a blast :)
Awesome! You look fantastic! Can't wait to hear about the recital in September.
You look so cute! And happy (even if it was just a giant fake smile). Don't ya just LOVE stage make-up? Up close you look like Bette Davis in "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?", but from the audience's perspective, the make-up just accentuates your features. Still, it's better not to look closely in the mirror. :) Keep up the shimmying!
