Pilates Exercises....

This past winter I had gained a considerable amount of weight...for me that is. I wasn't too thrilled with the shape of my body to say the least. In fact I felt depressed about it. During one of my sessions with my T she suggested trying out the Pilates style of exercise. She called it a "humane way to exercise". I bought 2 videos and began doing one in the morning and one at night. At first I huffed and puffed my way through them. After about 10 days I began to have a bit more of a flattened tummy....which was one part of me that I really didn't like.

I've been doing the exercises for 3 months now and my body has a shape like it never has before. I do need to gain back a little weight as I did lose some while exercising.....but the rest of me looks and feels just right.

If anyone is interested in doing exercise in a healthy way I would highly recommend this style of exercising.
