After 2.5 weeks and roughly 7 lbs gone, I heard my first, "Are you losing weight?" today.
It felt A-MAZING.
Nothing like a little verbal validation to keep me motivated!

Holy hot yoga.
I took my first ever hot yoga class tonight. It was INCREDIBLE. The room was 90 degrees, I was sweating profusely and loving every second. I left there feeling so light and airy, like I lost 10 lbs in 1 hour. If you live in the LV check out West End Yoga Center. It's likely you will see me there.

Namaste
So since my last post, I haven't been very good. I was home for two days on the couch doing NOTHING because I tweaked my back and could barely move. Then on top of that, I reached that time when I can't get enough food, especially carbs, into my system. So finally by yesterday, my back was feeling better and I decided to leap back into yoga.
I had been practicing regularly for about two years, then pregnancy happened and my prenatal practice was intermittent at best. I had been longing to get back into it but wasn't sure where. Luckily, Google hooked me up with a studio only about 1O minutes from my house.
I did a flow class during "happy hour" last night and IT WAS HARD. People out there who don't "get" yoga or don't think it is a workout obviously have never done yoga or have never practiced correctly. It's amazing how rusty I was at the beginning of the hour and how quickly my body snapped back into those positions 30 minutes in. Needless to say, I'm incredibly sore, but really looking forward to going again this morning! If you have never done yoga, put all of your preconceptions aside and try it. Your body will thank you.
