Pole dancing (Is this an NSV?)



Recommended Posts

Hi,

Now that I caught your attention:

I am looking for an exercise class to learn how to pole dance. Really and Seriously. This is a new Hollywood/CA trend. I bet Penni would know. Lets ask her. Cause I am seriously considering taking a class if such a class were available. I want to feel sexy and also get exercise. My secret fantasy would be to pole dance in my bedroom in high heels and lingerie.

OK, now to my NSV: I was joking with a client and I mentioned how I was going to start taking karate lesson and maybe a pole dance class to get some exercise since I stopped going to the gym. This is a 6 year client that I provide recruiting services for so we talk about pretty much anything since we know each other so well. He knows what I look like now and he also knows about my weight loss journey. He didnt laugh at me (NSV #1) and he said jokingly that if I took the class he most defintely would like to see me dance for him...... (NSV 2?) I do take this as a compliment. I guarantee you no one would have wanted to see me pole dance at 334 pounds......!!!

So who knows where I could take such a class here in TX?

I'm just shocked! How terrible. How could you all consider such, especially you Doll.

BTW, could you let me know the date you'll be there? An address would help too. :(

Well perhaps you can make this a goal for the next Vegas Bash. I'm sure the Devine Ms D can locate an empty pole for ya and we'll ALL be there in the front row! I've never seen a pole dance, but I'd show up just to support a sister!

I have only seen representations on TV... I think we should all go and consider it an educational and cultural experience.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
