The thing is, I love the way I feel afterwards so I now enjoy all manners of exercises.<br />Maybe eventually you'll find something that fits you. Then again, maybe not. :)Ineshttp://alliam-aredhead.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8638187488800760223.post-52813302380850782182011-09-10T13:19:35.761+02:002011-09-10T13:19:35.761+02:00I hate when blogger eats my comments and on my own...I hate when blogger eats my comments and on my own blog too. <br /><br />Suzanne, you are really the best of aunts. :) And I sincerely admire people who can stick to their own workout routine. I need someone to make me stick to it for the whole hour, otherwise I just do something and quickly and I'm off to do something else.<br /><br />Ha! I sent Fatale. :) Can't wait to hear what you think.Ineshttp://alliam-aredhead.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8638187488800760223.post-75128238924271005672011-09-09T21:18:34.135+02:002011-09-09T21:18:34.135+02:00I hate excersising.

That's why I'm really envious of those people who enjoy running/swimming/etc. I tried different activities and there is nothing I would be doing if I didn't have to.

This summer my college-age niece saw me doing my routine at the beach house where we were staying, and she asked me to teach her all of the movements. So I did, and she loved it so much she asked me for a copy of the book for her birthday. :)<br /><br />Regarding the package, it did take a long time to arrive compared to the last one you sent, but it's here now safe and sound. In addition to L'Intrigante, you sent me Coty Fatale (yowza, love the name!). Full report will be forthcoming. :)Suzannehttp://www.eiderdownpress.com/Perfume_Journal.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8638187488800760223.post-54240634699579097342011-09-07T21:24:04.584+02:002011-09-07T21:24:04.584+02:00Suzanne, did you ever go to a pilates class or you...Suzanne, did you ever go to a pilates class or you just started with the book? That's very ambitious of you as I know I would never have the drive to exercise as well by myself as I do when there is a trainer. Unfortunately. I know myself that well, and I did try. :)<br />I honestly think with the tempo and exercises in this studio that I'll be seeing some results in a month. :) The optimistic me to the fore.<br /><br />Btw, I was a bit worried already if the package arrived or not because my boyfriend mailed more than a month ago. Shouldn't surprise me though, our post seems to consider summer as non-working period even though people are at work. :S<br />Hope you enjoy them (although I forgot what else was in it from L'Intrigante). My memory is seriously faulty. :)Ineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12119611878721554991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8638187488800760223.post-21490218705977109562011-09-07T21:14:17.335+02:002011-09-07T21:14:17.335+02:00Vanessa, it seems pilates varieties are cropping u...Vanessa, it seems pilates varieties are cropping up everywhere. :) The STOTT pilates studio I went to first also has a pilates technique developed by the studio owner, but I forgot the name. <br />The thing I'm wondering now is why it took me so long to understand I needed a better training than the one I was getting. And can I just say, I chose perfectly - I was there for another class today and I feel great.<br />Ok, so I ache all over (yeeey!) but I feel full of energy and the whole class is so fluid and appropriate to each of us, the exercises are adapted to each of our levels. I love it. :)Ineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12119611878721554991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8638187488800760223.post-63000043830523356592011-09-07T18:27:09.577+02:002011-09-07T18:27:09.577+02:00Ines, I absolutely love Pilates, too, even though ...Ines, I absolutely love Pilates, too, even though I just do the floor exercises at home, from a book. For the past two months, I've been hitting the running trail and the pilates even harder than I normally do, and my body is transforming in amazing ways. (Which basically means that my ass, so impervious to change, is finally getting narrower. Yay!) ;-)<br /><br />Changing subjects, guess what arrived in my mailbox this morning? Thank you, thank you Sweetling! I'll send you an email after I've had a chance to wear them! oxxoSuzannehttp://www.eiderdownpress.com/Perfume_Journal.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8638187488800760223.post-79259200731517177222011-09-07T00:10:29.777+02:002011-09-07T00:10:29.777+02:00I have been doing Body Control Pilates (which may ...I have been doing Body Control Pilates (which may be an English variety, I don't know) for nearly a year now, but only once a week and not when I go on my trips, which is all too often lately. I still sit and stand better even though I am not doing the exercises whilst away. I am too lazy to practice in between the individual classes, but still I feel a benefit.<br /><br />There are between 6 and 10 people in the class I go to and the instructor always spots anything you do wrong and comes and corrects you.<br /><br />So I understand your love completely, even if I am out of practice right now!Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11847145282522572183noreply@blogger.com
