I ♥ YOGA

yes it is true. I have been taking it for two weeks now and I can feel my back and core is so much stronger. I feel taller. My posture is better. I feel stretched properly after my runs. I am not tight day after day and overall I am just absolutely in love with yoga.

It could be my teacher as well. I'm sure her style of teaching is what I love just as much as the yoga because this is not my first time to yoga. In this class the hour just flies by! I want more and I feel like I worked hard, stretched hard, and I just feel great afterwards. I sure will miss her class when I leave my Mom's house. I only hope that I enjoy it as much back home as I do here. Otherwise, I am going to have to teach myself at home. Which I might do anyway, but for now I love going to the class.

On another note, I was running on the treadmill at 7.2 mph today! My body could have kept up that pace for a while it was my lungs that were burning. I was in shock! I am so freaking excited about that. I am going to work on getting my lungs and cardiovascular at a higher endurance. I will be freaking excited if I can get back to running 3 miles in 24 minutes! I haven't done that in over 10 years.

Ah, finally reaching some really great goals. Let's keep this pace up baby!!!

November 1st

Hello November,

I welcome you with open arms. I know that this month is going to be awesome! My weight has gone up and down in October, but I fit into more jeans. So that means the inches are coming off. I really do need to measure myself! (That will be a November goal).

November, you are filled with holiday time and food time. Please be good to me and help me stay focused on my goals.

1-Measure myself :)
2- Keep studing for the NSCA-CPT
3-Lift 2-3 times a week
4-Run/walk 6 times per week
5-Get the water flowing (I have been horrible at this the past month)
6-Write food in journal

I am on super sugar overload from last nights trick or treating escapdes. I felt so sick last night when I went to bed. Must not do that again.

Ok November, you think you can keep up? Ready or not here we gooo............................

Compost Goal

Started our compost pile today! I am using an old can that formula came in for the kitchen scraps. This is nice because it has a lid and can hold most of the days food scraps. I will have to take some pictures so I can show you the process.

For now we are just doing a pile, not a bin. Once I find a 'bin' that I can get for free or pretty cheap then I will probably do that so I can use my good soil when I want and not have to dig to the bottom of the pile.

YAY! One more thing on my checklist going!
