Isnt always that easy. Especially when you are shaped like I am.

Ya know, short, with meat on your bones.

However, I am lucky enough to have married a man who loves and desires me no matter my shape. But, who is also willing to help me feel better about myself, instead of just giving me compliments when I complain.

Its also fortunate that I have an awesome Twitter friend (TheDirtyGround), who is also local, and a moronically talented artist. And who supplied me with two links that have already helped me feel better about myself. The first, a curvy girls sexy clothing store, Hips and Curves. Not only do they have a BUNCH of awesome outfits in a wide range of sizes, they are AFFORDABLE.

Yeah, I ordered a mountain of stuff from them, with the blessing of my dear husband.

Then, she began raving about these Burlesque dance classes, saying how its awesome to help your overall body image. So, I asked for linkage, and she hooked me up.

Burlesquercise

I read some info, looked at where the classes were. And found that one of the classes is VERY close to where we live.

Bring it up to the husband, who is in favor. He nearly agrees on the spot, regardless of price.

150 bucks for 6 wks? Hell yeah!

I signed up for the May course, which starts a week after my birthday.

That gives me roughly 2 months to build up my endurance and such a bit.

So I started working out again today.

And Jelly Bean did agree, if I liked the classes, he was in favor of me continuing them.

I also bought some DvDs, so I can learn the basics of Burlesque dancing, and Belly dancing.

Yeah, there is a plan!
