Dancing NSV

So we got the Xbox 360 with Kinect and Dance Central last year...and we never played it alot. We would try it out maybe once a month...I could get through the easiest song...Poker Face and be so tired and out of breathe I didnt even want to do it anymore.
Fast forward to about a month ago...we started using it. I had lost a little weight, maybe 10 pounds by then. I could get thru 3 songs before I was tired.
I kept pushing myself each week, adding another song. Ignoring that voice in my head saying I had enough. That voice saying You are sweating. That is icky. You should stop now.
And I upped my minimum songs to 5. 5 songs in a row, no stopping. That is about 16 min of non stop dancing. For a girl who has over 300 pounds to lose, that is alot.
And here comes my NSV....tonight I did 8 songs...29 minutes of non stop dancing...
And the best part...I feel so good. Dancing has become something that just feels RIGHT to me. We have danced 17 days in a row. It has become our thang!
Do I get 5 stars? Do I get 100%? HAHAHA no.....I do however move around alot and sweat alot and have stopped worrying about how I look while dancing.
**Find something you LOVE to do that makes you sweat and have fun with it!**
