Yoga Sushi and Weight Loss
Oh. My. Word.
I got up this morning to fit my yoga practice in, rather than waiting 'til the kids' nap time. I was so incredibly stiff and sore. My lower back screamed at me for the first 30 minutes only to tone down to a stern razzing during the last half. Our 2 and 4 year olds joined me for the last 10 minutes, and my savasana (corpse pose) was done with a 2 year old laying on me, covered in his blankie.
Not a bad way to wrap it up. Not bad at all.
Wow, did I feel O.L.D. during that practice. More movement during that routine that I would like - I would rather hold poses than do a ton of flow. Especially first thing in the morning.
Moving on in the day - I weighed in today. After 2 weeks of practicing eating only during an 8 hour window - I've now lost 2.5lbs. Down 2 pounds for last week.
After eating sushi with a friend last night. After having pizza on Friday night and Chinese food on Saturday night (it's been a week full of coupons and exhaustion). I worked out just as much (got my 10 miler in OUTSIDE on Saturday) and slept just as much.
I stressed less about what I ate. I didn't count one single calorie. I passed on chocolate cake and frozen yogurt. I think a 2 pound loss ROCKS!
That's what's new with me. I re-configured my training schedule for the next 4 weeks so that I'll be all TRI-READY. :) I'm off to my last Financial Peace University class tonight. Graduation! Tomorrow is a lovely swim/bike brick, then AWANA...whew! Blessedly busy.
Great way to start the day! Erica
