Slow but Steady

Yeah! I've successfully dropped 10 pounds and enough time has gone by that it seems they are staying off. It only took me 6 months! But I'll take slow and steady weightloss over the alternative any day. To change things up a bit, I ordered some new workout dvds. I've been doing the same 2 dvds over and over and it was difficult to stay motivated to wake up early every morning. So I decided to try some dance dvds after watching 'So you think you can dance' on TV. I love that show! I purchased 4 salsa dvds and 1 hip hop. I am starting with the basic salsa right now, which is teaching moves in the traditional mambo style 2 beat. It is pretty fun and I do look forward to working out now. A few of the moves are difficult but with practice I will get them. And all this practice will come in handy when we go to Rio later on this year! I picked some beautiful oriental lilies from my garden last night to bring inside. They had fallen over since I didn't have them staked. The perfume is very pretty but almost a little too overpowering. I had to move the vase from the living room into the kitchen by the sink. The perfume will help cover up the smell of the compost bucket.
