YOGA

          Whoever thinks that Yoga is for pansy girls or thinks it is all relaxing music and incense... YOU ARE WRONG! Tawnette and I have been doing Yoga once a week for a couple weeks now, and I can tell you it is seriously hardcore! The class we are in is not a begginer course at all! However it is the only one that fit into our schedule. Tawnette's Friend also goes with us on these days, and it is so fun to go with people you know! The more the merrier  Such good motivation to have good people to work out with. Though I feel so foolish trying to balance my body, I am so glad that I have not given up on it. I actually see progress though it may be small and anyone watching me attempt this craziness may think what in the crap is wrong with this girl... I see progress.
It started in my hands, I am able to feel strength in my hands, I am able to stretch muscles I did not even know existed let alone that they needed to be worked on. It makes me feel strong and powerful. I had to take a break in the middle of the first two classes my body was shaking so badly, and the last two times, I made it through the whole class! It may not be for everyone but I really like it and look forward to seeing more progression. The picture I included in this, is the pose my teacher informed us this morning that we are working towards... though I wanted to laugh in her face.... I felt motivated in the fact that she thought I could do that. It has been a little hard staying motivated the last week. Our bodies are building muscle, which yes is good, but is slowing down the number drop I wanted. I know there are other things that help us know our work is paying off, such as looser clothes, and feeling better about ourselves, but I look forward to the number drop, I look forward to reaching my goals and getting to set new goals!
