Anything Under the Sun!!!

Is being fat a problem if you are healthy?

I am a bit on the heavier side of the weight scale. But I am healthy. I have a good stamina (can dance for as long as I want to), healthy eating habits, but I admit I am lazy about exercising. Does it really matter?

Guess it does. The way these weight losing clinics are gaining popularity, the whole concept of being slim is definitely rising on the priority list. Not just being slim, maybe even being thin or whatever term you want to give it. People want to look good and that’s completely agreeable, till it becomes an obssession and till they don’t look down upon people who are otherwise (people like me!!!).

I won’t say that I am not worried about being fat or rather over-weight (lets be euphemistic). I do keep thinking about it and I have tried a lot of methods. The thing is I don’t eat a lot (that’s the truth) but I run away from physical activity. I can never continue anything for a long time. Same goes for all the exercise regimes I undertake. I think that’s how it is for the most of us, though there are some really strong-willed folks who might disagree.

So, I have decided to take up something, which I am really interested in as my means of losing weight – DANCE!!! It’s the best thing I can do. I love dancing and if I can lose weight through dancing, what could be better? Any kind of dance, but would prefer western or freestyle. And for that I’ll have to join a dance class or something (my room doesn’t have so much space to accommodate my dancing).

So now my search is on for a dance class or an instructor who could help me. And once that’s accomplished, I’ll definitely come back with the results. I am all set (I hope nothing deters me from my decision this time).
