My NSV today

ThriftyChica12

I had a HUGE NSV today! Ballet classes started back today. I was EXTREMELY nervous, as the owner of the school had informed me that my instructor wasn't going to be able to return to do the adult class (for the past two years, I had been the only constant student-- we had a high attendance of twelve, but ultimately, I was the only person faithfully dedicated to the class) and she wanted to place me in one of the more advanced classes she taught. I didn't know if I'd be able to keep up, or if I had enough knowledge or skill to be in with these other young ladies. I didn't mind the fact that I was going to be the old woman in class with them, I was just so afraid that I wouldn't have a clue what was going on, or be able to keep up at that skill level, as many of these young ladies have been dancing since age 3 and 4 (and the class ranges from age 10 to 18 and then me). I was EXTREMELY proud of myself! I was not only able to keep up, but knew well over 95% of what was being taught! In only two short years, I've worked hard, and taken in between 5 to 9 years worth of ballet training! Not ONLY that, I've never taken a two hour class before! In the past, I would be absolutely exhausted by the time my one hour class was over, but tonight, I was shocked when I realized that we had been dancing for two full hours! Granted, I was extremely hot, and tired, but THRILLED! My dream has always been to be able to put on a pair of pointe shoes and dance, and I believe I'm well on my way to doing so!

**I look HORRIBLE in this picture, I don't ever wear makeup to dance, and my face is blood red, but I'm quite proud of how I look now in my leotard and dancewear!**



And I'm so proud of how well I can stretch and point my feet now! Things are getting easier! It was just a great day!

WTG! That is an EPIC NSV!!!!

Realised this week that I am totally happy with my weight. I feel brilliant. I exercise because I love it and eat well every meal.
