Reply #26: You got that right!

I had no idea. I mean, when I was a kid, my mode of dancing was the white boy shuffle. I got more exercise walking across the room.

My daughter, who has had the same weight problem I had as a child -- that is not fat, but always flirting with it -- got into going to (supervised) raves with her friends a couple years ago. (I had a long fight with her mother over that one.) The fat she had began dropping, and now she's got quite a bit of tone in her limb muscles.

She also seems happier, but of course who can really tell with a teenage girl. :-)
