I feel so much better than yesterday. I was so sore yesterday that it actually hurt to sit down (my legs were killing me!). However, I went to the gym after work (pushed myself really hard to go) and when I got to the gym there was a Yoga class about to start. I thought of how good a body stretch would feel at that moment so I decided to take Yoga for the first time. The class was a bit advanced (IMHO) but I think I did pretty well. I have no upper body strength so the planks and other positions were challenging. Overall I had a great time and I was truly relaxed when I was done with the class. Then I went to the elliptical machine for 30 minutes.I liked Yoga so much that I decided to take it again Friday.
This morning I woke up at 5:10 am and made it to my Chisel class. The class was as challenging as ever, but today was even harder because there were too many people in the classroom and they were moving too much (people were leaving at random times and picking up their stuff as they did this, breaking everybody else concentration in the class). After the gym, I was feeling sore (not as bad as yesterday) so I decided to sleep for an extra hour. By the time I woke up at 7:50 am I was a changed person. Nothing hurts!!! I can feel the stiffness of my muscles from the weight lifting, but not pain when I am moving. That made my day! and to top it off, the soon is shinning and it is a beautiful day.
Today I brought my food to work trying to be more conscious about my eating habits and to try to consume more fruits and veggies (part of the Little Black Dress Challenge). SO I brough mini carrots, celery, grapes and blueberries. I hope these become my snacks between meals. Lets see how it goes!
