Work has been busy which I hope will pay off later..so spent Valentine's day with Bikram, Valerie and team! Gave our towels a V-day kiss and I really missed Valerie's class, I forgot how funny she is..love her patience and insight as a teacher..we do have the greatest teachers at BikPas.
Did a morning class the next day and (sorry if you are reading this and you are the guy) but was next to a super heavy breather..he was breathing out of his mouth..my ADD kicked in I made him the excuse of why I couldnt focus etc.. so in that class I was a cranky puss.
I noticed lately my knees were bothering me lately so I'm going to wait a while before doing any doubles. I am trying to keep up my regime on eating healthy not really missing or craving anything bad, tho latenight i do get snacky...but I told myself to stop at 8pm.
I think this challenge is teaching me patience, silencing the mind before it gets overly cluttered, letting the crap go...take care of the body..how good it feels to be healthy!! but as much as I am doing this for health...yesterday was a major victory for me I fit LEATHER boots on my fat kielbasa legs!!! I have never worn boots b/c I couldnt get my calves in them...I tell you those leg toning poses WORK!! I'm going to push a bit further and work on all those toning poses now hahaa. I was so happy I scared the sales lady I made her give me several brands and they fit...they were not brands for fatties either they were for normal people Yehaw! Plus went on the scale and dropped a total of 8lbs since challenge and already dropped 2 inches off my belly... (think eliminating dairy and meat helped) Ok signing off for now got to get back to work.
Congratulations Nancy! You are rocking the challenge. Big weight loss and obvious changes already = wow!! The photo of you looks great!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWow wow! Good job, Nancy! That is the reward you get from working hard in the yoga class, wearing boots is just the 1st thing amazed you, more surprises to come!
ReplyDeletewow wow wow!!! I bow down to you Nancy!!You are sooo rawking this challenge!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats Nancy on all the accomplishments!!!! Super happy for you. I am still waiting for the significant changes in my body..i.e. change in weight/size. I'm gonna be patient. Hope I'll be able to fit into boots like you by the end of this crazy challenge. My calves, wait..legs in general :(...are huge so fitting into normal people boots will be AMAZING!!! Thanks for the inspiration <3
ReplyDeleteAmazing progress! I think you asked me about Bikram in Charlotte for your work trip, I have relatives there so I have scoped out classes before...although its been a long time. There is not an "official" bikram yoga studio in Charlotte but Yoga Oasis offers bikram classes 2400 Park Road #A there website is bikramyogacharlotte.com
ReplyDeleteTHe closest real bikram studio is in Bikram Yoga Winston Salem about 1hour and 10 min away.
So the close one will offer bikram as well as other types of yoga, which bikram prohibits, so class schedule will be limited. The one in Winston Salem is only bikram, teaches dialoge, and has classes early til late.
If you are traveling elsewhere and need to find a studio go to Bikram's official website to Class finder section and look it up-all official studios are listed there by city,state. Good luck, see you in class, miranda
