Zumba Time



Went shopping and bought this DVD for the Wii. It's called Zumba. It hasn't been used yet, and it's been here for a couple of weeks. This is a semi-preview of whats on the DVD. Just can't seem to get in the exercise mode. It looks like a lot of fun and dancing is definitely fun. Trying to find a way to work towards it and make it a daily regimen.


If one could just get going with this exercise and moderation of food, one would definitely be getting fit. Did we say that? Yes we did, now get on it 
G L O R I A!! Stop talking and do it. I really don't like being told what to do, but one knows it's for one's own good. I could Haiku about it...but that's not enough.


If I Zumba now
Can you promise I'll be fit
Don't break your promise


One can start slowly and progress with each day....if one must.
So this is what is next on the agenda. It's either Zumba or treadmill. I can't run-bad knees, my bike went flat, plus it too hurts my knees, don't want to sign up for a year's contract outside the house, plus how do I get out of being lazy as I've become???? What do you think? What would you do?


Tee Hee and that too is in moderation.
Have a great weekend.

  7. Zumba zumba...it's fun to say! Well, I am pretty sure I won't be zumbaing, but I am with you 100% on getting an exercise habit started. I am going with walking. I got on the treadmill for the first time yesterday (after SWEARING I would start on the first). Baby steps, right? lol! You go, girl! Zumba rumba! xox!

My New Revolver Ball 10/19/11

(Genesis 1:29-31): 'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live!
