Day 6, 8 classes down!

Whoo hoo I've never done 8 classes straight which included two doubles.
I had a bad headache and felt really sleepy right before Nafisa's class, but I always look forward to her Monday night class, love how she is with my parents. Everyone knows them as "mom and dad"

Today I learned more about HALF TORTOISE POSE, learned to stretch not to just flop down and let my forehead crash on the towel.

My headache is gone and now I'm ready to crash and sleep, hope my three year old would let me.

Folks commented they like to see what I'm eating and am I starving myself, answer is no...I'm a foodie that's not in my DNA, I eat btw 1200-1500 calories a day. I only cut out processed food, animal protein, dairy etc..I'm using this challenge on my food as well.

When I went to see my ortho on my fractured knee I begged him to give me the green light on increased activity... He made a comment about athletes like me keep him busy. I was stuck on athlete! How I loved that! So I am trying to eat as one, food is now fuel not comfort I eat foods that will help my performance in class and take out the heavy foods that would hurt my practice.

  1. Congrats Nancy! You and your mom and dad are so inspirational to everyone at the studio. It's so great you are all so committed to taking care of yourselves. That lunch looks so yummy -- where did you get it??

  2. Thanks, I love my parents..they left me a care package after class, coconut water and powerade ha.

    The lunch is from the Wholefoods Salad bar. That salad bar is dangerous esp when you get hungry and buy by the pound!! $$
