P i l a t e s here we go again

I think this class brings hope to myself. I still feel like the biggest roll there. For example....Have you ever seen Rachel Ray 30 min meals. Well she always gets a carrot and cuts a little bit off, so it won't ROLL when you cut it. Well, when I am on my side, doing the exercises, I just feel like I can't hold the position, because I tend to roll either frontwards, or backwards. Really. So I am just contemplating the day when the rolling....goes away and I am planted firmly on a position. I guess I do have TONS of curves, only curvy people have this dilemma probably. Nevertheless, this class has introduced abdominal exercise...something long and forgotten since child birth. I really love my teacher, she is the epitome of beauty and poise. After all the grueling, I stay for SET class, which combines weights and cardio. This really left me sore, but I enjoyed not having Jorvik around so I could stay in the steam room 25 min. Too bad the steam room in this gym sucks. Really sucks. I should speak with the manager. Such nice facility with marble and such to have it wasted in an attempt of a steam.

I'm impressed by your workout efforts; the image of the rolling carrot doing floor exercises is quite hilarious, I must say!

I love Rachel Ray recipes. Jessie (Michelle's sister, my niece) put me onto her and I have loved every recipe of hers that I've tried.

Keep up the good work! I am also attempting to start a gym regime and will concentrate on DOing rather than just TRYing.
