Saturday, Oct 24 2009 - Zumba!

View MARCYINCNY2's food & exercise for this day

I got two things out of the event yesterday evening: a boatload of sodium and an introduction to Zumba!

My weight bounced up 2# this am; my feet, my hands, my lips were swollen and my eyes looked like two water blisters. I don't eat out often nowadays, don't eat prepared/processed foods and I think as a result I've become more sensitive to sodium. I didn't eat much yesterday evening but everything I did eat tasted salty to me even though no one else seemed to notice an excess.

After dinner there were demonstrations of some of the programs at the community center and one of them was Zumba! I've been interested for some time but now I can't wait to take a class. I'm too late for the current sessions but I can start next month. It looks like exactly what I need to get me through the winter.

I never heard of this. Naturally, I had to look it up and founds some videos on youtube. Wow! Looks like great fun.

Oooh, I'm sorry about the salt! I'm a bit of a salt fiend (I love it) but I don't use much in cooking either. The 2 lbs is probably water retention to cope with the excess sodium.

Zumba looks like a killer activity to me! And I mean I'd DIE. Of both embarrassment :$ and sweat! Good luck!
