About 5 and half months ago I quit smoking. It’s something that was on my mind for a while, and needed to be done, so I bit the bullet and quit cold turkey, I can tell you it feels fantastic! I feel that since I’ve accomplished that, I can accomplish anything.
My next goal (because I believe in one thing at a time) was to hit the gym, and completely change my current lifestyle of being lazy and unhappy with my body, to living a healthy and active life! It’s said that “you cannot change a person, only they can change themselves”, and I completely agree. I am making the change now for myself and nobody else, and it feels great!
As a baker, I test cupcakes all the time and often feel guilty or cut myself down for eating sweets so often. I won’t say that, that’s the exact reason why I’m making this change, but it’s definitely motivating knowing that bikini season is around the corner!
Aside from my regular gym program, I started up Zumba dance class again, and boy did it kick my ass! I would definitely recommend this class to anybody who’s looking for a great work out! Zumba is Latin inspired dance class that will leave you feeling like you just ran a marathon! Zumba involves dance and aerobics elements, and the choreography incorporates hip hop, salsa, mambo, and Bollywood (to name a few). Taught by the ridiculously talented Amy Cooper at Club Ouest in Saint-Lazare, you don’t need to be a member to join the class*! You will feel Amy’s amazing energy the second you walk in the room, and it will keep you pumped all the way till the end of the 1 hour session. For more information, and class schedule, check out Club Ouest’s website!
*There is a class fee, but it is worth every penny! Note that if you do not live in the area, no worries, there's a class within your community, contact your local gym!
Cheers!
