We all have areas we feel we need to improve on. For me, one of my big things is my work ethic when it comes to getting and staying in shape. I went from the professional dancer with a slim, athletic build, to what I am now.
I know Master does not mind as long as I am healthy and comfortable, but, if I am being honest with myself, I am not comfortable. I don't want to be back to what I was when I was dancing, but I do want to be able to do the simple things like sending Master a picture of His girl without having to ask Him to ignore the belly fat, or send a pic to my sister without having to explain away some roll or another.
So, a friend of mine and I are going to start going to the gym together on Monday. I want to get back into shape for myself, and for Master. I want that confidence back that I had when I was dancing. I want to be able to take a weekly dance class and not be embarrassed to tell people who I actually am, not deny it. I want to take the stress of the extra weight off my knees and ankles.
I am actually excited about this and may even ask Master to come with me to the gym once in a while when He is home.
i know where you are coming from. not that i was a professional dancer but i was way more active. i use to dance while i cleaned and listen to music. i wish i was still in shape like i was back before i had mine and my Masters son, i miss that and i hate the stretch marks. Master does not care either as long as i am taking care of myself and our son and that i am happy, but it's one thing that does bother me. it's like when we go to the pool i am ashamed that he is out in public with me. i want my confidence back too. but i can't get to a gym.
