I was heavier. I got discouraged. I was probably at about 145 or so. I had more abs then, because I hadn't starved all my muscle away, but there was more fat covering them, too.
Now my abs have nearly gone, but so has the fat. So has the jiggly hip stuff that shimmies when you belly dance. But I've seen some skinny belly dancers shake their shit and it still looks damn sexy. I'm thinkin' if I were to really get back into it, the muscles would come. And then I would be awesome.
I pulled out my old belly dancing coin scarf and tried it on. Queued up some good tabla drum beats and realized that yes, I could definitely find this groove again. Perhaps getting back into this will help me find my center a bit in something other than this, my ever-present obsession.
I took a picture. Here it is.
I love ya'll. ;)
