I get my butt out of bed early each Saturday for my 8:30am Zumba class. I do not like exercising that early so although I am cranky, I have fun. This past Saturday after Zumba I cleaned up and went off to man the TOPS table over at the local Health and Wellness Expo. I met up with the ladies and told the visitors of my recent weight loss success and the benefits of a group supporting my efforts instead of going in alone. Oh and I also passed out nail files with TOPS logos, which people accepted like they were gold bars. People go nuts over free crap. The ladies were so excited to have a guy there to appeal to the cross demographic. Thinking back on it, I supposed I should have worn my sash!

At the same Expo my Zumba teacher has a stand so it was very convenient as I could go over and promote that as well. She also was putting on a demo and although I had agreed first to man the TOPS table, they begged me to do Zumba also as once again, I am the solo prized male of the group. I truly know what an endangered species must feel like. I did not mind doing it but I was in my street clothes so was a bit reluctant, however they were very forceful and I really had no choice in the matter. It was fun. We did two numbers and I worked up another sweat. The rest of the morning everyone was like hey there is the Zumba guy. I told you I am becoming such a townie. The attention made me feel good though. Plus I burned even more calories and good a free re-useable shopping bag from another one of the vendors. Yay.

As for this week weight - I stayed the same. Sometimes that is a win and for last week it definitely was a win, staying on track and keeping my focus on where I want to be. Yes I am not positive that does an demo of Zumba for 200 is truly my vision of where I want to be - it certainly was not a bad place to be.
