I know, I know....I'm not blogging daily. I must get back to that because since Sunday, I've felt like I'm slipping off the fitness wagon. I must not slip off. I ate poorly on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. Damn girl scout cookies that slipped into my house. I ate some other bad stuff too, but can't actually remember what. What I do know is that sugar does not agree with me. I LOVE the taste of sugary sweetness, but it really messes with my moods. It makes me grumpy and tired and unmotivated.
SO, today is Ash Wedenesday...the first day of Lent. I will not eat any extra sugar for forty days straight and I WILL GO TO THE GYM 5 DAYS a week. As a family, the 5 of us will also pray the Rosary nightly. That actually should help me to stay on track when I think of Jesus sacrifices, my journey to fitness is trivial. I can do this for myself, for my family and for everybody that loves me and wants a healthy Trish.
I will also blog at least every other day. I should have blogged about the yoga class I took with Kay. Everyone in the room was so "into" their peaceful yoga and they were good at it too. I, on the other hand, was having silly thoughts, and trying hard to get my body to cooperate with what the instructor was telling us to do. At one point, I though Darth Vader was in the room with us. This one guy was really intense with his breathing and sounded just like he had joined the 'dark side'....oooh, weird. Okay, now I'll stop making fun of people. I'm sure they all had thoughts of their own about me.
Well, I was having similar thoughts too. Must explain why were friends! Did we do the "Peeing Dog" stance? Cant remember. Cow pose cracks me up too. anyway .... namaste!
ReplyDeleteokay.....huh?.....what's namaste?
ReplyDeleteHahahaha!! It's a good thing I wasn't there! We would have been belly laughing like kids in church! And did my Sweetpea actually say "Damn"? Damn! Hahahaha!! :-D
ReplyDeleteOh poor confused Trish :)
ReplyDeleteNamaste is the traditional greeting used before and after yoga class. Apparently the meaning has a couple interpretations, but loosely interpreted it means 'The spirit in me recognizes and honors the same spirit in you' I felt it was appropriate since our spirits were chuckling together in yoga!
Mary Ann, I KNOW you wouldn't have been able to stifle your laugh in that class. And Yes, I said damn, but not out loud, just on my keyboard.
ReplyDeletemmmm...brussel sprouts...yum! But, I sure wouldn't eat them before yoga class, not even a day before...or...well, you know...hahahaha!!
ReplyDeletewhy? would it then be a musical Yoga class? and maybe a "guess that smell?"
