Talking if exercise can make me feel sexy and body confident at 217lbs you definitely can

I know i've posted a few posts on here about belly dancing. But my god does it make you feel sexy. Once you've got the hang of it it's incredible, I've just been doing it for 90mins and i'm sweaty, but not out of breath and feel so good! damn it that I don't have a man in my life!! (and it burns around 450 cals per hour as an added bonus to get you through the elephant phase)

I love it as I don't dread having to do it, it relaxes me so I sleep better, and it helps my over all fitness as well as the sexiness factor. You can also do it for free via youtube! result!

I'm singing it's praises because at 217lbs its very difficult for me to feel ok about myself let alone sexy, and I want other people to get the same benefit from your chosen exercises as i'm starting too

It sounds great! In the past, during my pregnancies, I've thought about taking belly-dancing because it's supposed to help prepare a woman for birth, but I never got around to it. Maybe now's the time!

Glad to hear you're enjoying it and feeling good about yourself.

Beck: I've heard that about belly dancing, the best thing about it is because of all the arm movements and core work you end up toned to withing an inch of your life

I'm too shy and timid for belly dancing. I envision super confident girls do stuff like belly dancing.

IsabellaOlivia-I'm like that, i'm shy and not that confident about how I look which is why I do it at home where I feel I can look as idiotic as I like and really throw myself into it

Its all about finding something that makes you feel good. The reason I like belly dancing is because any woman can pick it up because it looks good with ALL body types, whether they're slim, heavy, short, tall, with curves or without.
