have tight abs

I think I could be justified in marking this done, but I’m still going to wait. The other day K. asked me if I’d lost weight. I’m not sure—I might have, but I think the real difference is in my posture. I still haven’t worn a bikini to the pool, but that is because I haven’t gone in a while. If I manage to take water aerobics again in the fall, or go deep water running over the summer, I might.

Sometimes we have goals on here that are hard to quantify, and thus hard to mark “done.” So this is my measure of what determines this “done”: if I go to water aerobics or water running in a two piece swimsuit, I’ll mark this as done.

mainly due to Pilates. I think I put it up as more of a vanity goal, but really, it’s about my back, which won’t ever really get better unless the front muscles on the right learn to kick in, especially when I inhale. Other things are really a side benefit.

go to a pilates session once a week.

But it’s a start.

could go either here or under the ever-popular “physical therapy” class of goals.

I’ve been going to a Pilates studio that specializes in rehabilitation and doing one-on-one sessions with someone there. It feels very promising, although not miraculous (which is fine by me). The only problem is it of course represents a chunk of change that is not covered by insurance. That’s the way it goes, though. I’m investing in my physical future.

I skipped belly dance class to watch the convention.

Oh well, it will be there next week.
