Dancing on the Beach featuring... "The Dip"!
So why on earth do I want to put myself through all this effort to lose weight? I mean status quo is easy, right? It’s easier just to stay where I am… it’s sort of a comfort zone. I know all the standard answers – and they DO mean alot to me – I’ll be healthier, I’ll live longer, It’ll be good for my business and so forth. All very great reasons to lose this excess weight.
But what I really, really want is to get out and dance. I love dancing.
I was never great at team sports. I have something called alternating vision, so catching a ball is pretty much not in the cards. As a result, I could never show off my prowess on the sports pitch to impress the girls. But girls/women LOVE to dance. That’s where it’s my turn to be the star. For whatever reason I’m good at it. I have rythm. I enjoy it and it’s a ton of fun. And it’s a GREAT way to pick up women! I have pissed off more than one guy when his girlfriend insisted on dancing with me. Take that you football palying jocks! Your knees are shot now, but I still know how to dance.
Or at least I did… alas, I have handicapped myself. I cannot dance right now. I get too tired, I can’t move like I want… it’s a disaster.
So eye on the prize. I want to lose this weight so I can dance. This is one of “My Whys”.
So soon, I expect, I’ll see you on the dance floor!
Well my bro in pounds, my knees work again, after beeing a Deejay most of my life, I hated not beeing able to clear the floor like i once could,…..DO IT, to have your body work again, to be able to wear those new tight fitting Under Armor shirts, feels great, when you’re ready we will host a dance ,not just go to one, we will throw a bash to bash the pounds,….the “Bash” Brothers, will throw a party the likes of which the town has never seen……..I give my word.
Christopher,
Now THAT’s a celebration I can get behind! It will be done!
There simply seems to be no words for me right now, everything I am thinking seems not to explain the encouragement you have just given me Art………..please keep doing this. With tears, Thank you my friend.
This blog made me smile Art. I love your enthusiasm for the dance. I wish I had some rythm. Can I come to your party? LOL
ME TOO! Invite me – we’ll dance the band out the door and turn out the lights!
OH Art
I would like to be right there with you. That is why Wayne and I first got together, (how shallow) because he could dance. It makes you feel so good, but my knees gave me allot of problems till MaxGXL and now Cellgevity. Thank You Dr. Keller and Dr. Nagasawa.
Lose a little bit of weight and we will be good to go.
Thanks Bev! And I don’t think that’s shallow at all. When I am dancing it’s like a true expression of who I am and how I feel inside. It is freeing! Loving my Max too! Let’s make a date on the calendar and go out and dance. OK?
