There are many ways of breaking a heart. Stories were full of hearts broken by love,
but what really broke a heart was taking away its dream - whatever that dream might be.

The Ball Excercise


Pilates... YEA! Can you say butt and thigh torture? Because that is what it is. And I am totally looking forward to going again tonight. I know that any kind of burn in that area is what I desperately need. It helps that the teacher is a total nut! She sings, laughs, tells stories, makes jokes, and makes it worth going to. Now if I could get myself to do a hundred or more sit-ups a day that sure would help.

Motivation is my biggest struggle. I need someone to encourage me, give me pep talks. Ohh I know, that someone should be ME! :giggles:

Anyone else do pilates? Love it or hate it?

edit: I love that class! I am dying to make it all way through. I will take a before and after picture. come back in one year to see what it looks like! :wink:

  1. I like Pilates a lot but I don't do it very often because it's not enough stretching for me. I like yoga better because I get my cardio, stretching, and strength training all in one routine.

  3. i found that pilates tones the areas I need toning, and I am thinking that I will take a yoga class in between.

    our instructor is awesome!
