Yoga Tuesday

Day 22: Tuesday, January 12, 2009

Normally I have been doing strength in the morning on Tuesdays and then yoga at night. Today, however, I am going to run tonight before yoga because I did weights yesterday and I slept in this morning before work. 11 hours of sleep to be specific! I increased the resistance for a few of the major muscle group exercises and I am definetly feeling it today!

B:kashi cereal, soymilk, coffee
L:salmon, 1/2 pita, carrots, hummus, green tea
Snack: handful of kashi cereal
D: soy boca burger, whole wheat bun, tomatoes, onions, spinach, avacado

So, I bought new running shoes on Sunday that I forgot to tell you about. And I used them today for the first time on the treadmill and I felt AMAZING!! Let me tell you, that shoes DO make a difference. I bought a pair of Nike running shoes suggested to me by a women at the Run Chicago store in Oak Park. LOVE THEM! I was able to run 3 miles today no problem! I actually was able to run .5 miles, walk for ~30 sec and finish all 3 miles. I did 45 min of cardio today and would have done more but the yoga class was starting and I had to go grab my mat from the locker room. I sweat it out on the treadmill and worked on my strength, balance, and posture in yoga. I love tuesdays! =)

PS. tomorrow gonna get on the scale and see how things are going weight wise. I can see and feel my body getting stronger, and hopefully the pounds continue to drop so I can fit into my old jeans soon! Its been 3 weeks and 1 day since I started and its flying by!
