Oh my gosh... I can SO relate to that because I used to dance for many years! My mother teaches dance too, so I grew up around dance and lots of tiny weeny little dancers bodies.

I gained a bunch of weight last winter, which sent me into a tiny bit of a depression. Not hugely, but I got a wee bit upset with myself.
