Can fat people do Pilates?

I'm kind of intrigued ... I'd like to strengthen my core muscles but don't have a program at the moment to work on them. Instead, all of my energy (mostly mental at this point ...) is based on cardio. I just learned of a cool new website called Walkscore.com which rates places you live based on the number of basic services provided that you can walk to from your home. Not surprisingly, my home address was a 98. My parents on the other hand have a dismal score of 12. While perusing the results I learned that literally across the street there is a great Pilates studio ... which of course begets a the question, would it be possible for someone of my physical makeup to do pilates?

Not really performance anxiety, but rather embarassment over my largesse has kept me from ever trying it out. But I think I would enjoy it and it could help out my still sore arm.

On the good news front, despite having my interview postponed AGAIN, I did have a lovely day in Raleigh with my friend Miranda, her baby Sally and my parents. Here's a picture of the baby taking her very first steps at age 9 months!! I can't wait to be a good role model for this little one as she grows up ... let's keep her busy and active and as happy as she was today!
