Yoga Is Evil!

Okay so today I started my journey full force.  This past weekend the hubs and I decided to go skiing so I am a little cramped and sore (this was only my second time ever)!  My brilliant idea was to take a Yoga class thinking it would be relaxing and a good way to stretch out my muscles.

Boy oh boy - whoever said Yoga was relaxing, well they LIED!

I mean don't get me wrong I think it is definitely something I could really enjoy.  But don't let all those "ohmmms" fool you, your first Yoga experience will not be relaxing and it will actually kinda hurt.  I mean who would have thought my back muscles would hurt from Yoga?  Certainly not me!

So there you have it - Yoga experienced and completed!  Yay me!  Let's hope the next time it is a bit easier on this aging body!!!  (32 is NOT a spring chicken anymore)

Today's Stats:

• Stayed within my Calorie Range according to The Daily Plate - if your not using anything to track calories - I highly recommend this site - it's free and very easy to use.
• Experienced Yoga  and will definitely be working that into my weekly routine
• Drank 24oz of water - definitely not enough but more than usual
• Finally started and posted on this blog I have been wanting to do for weeks!  

Here is to an awesome and hopefully easy week!

From Fat to Fab - The start

Hello!  I am glad you decided to follow me on what is sure to be a roller coaster ride to being a happier, healthier, skinnier me!  I decided to start this blog to help keep me accountable for my day to day actions.  I figure if people are actually out there reading about my weight loss - maybe, just maybe I will accomplish this goal.

Let me start with a little background about me.  As I stated before I am a former "skinny bitch" I mean - at one point in life I was abnormally skinny as witness here by my prom picture in which I am pretty sure my hair is bigger than my waist.

(The identity of my date of course has been concealed as well I don't want to get sued by anyone!)

So, on to 2010, I am happily married and about 25 pounds heavier than I was when I met my husband.  YIKES!  Why does happiness and love make us fat?  So my goals are as follows -

* Run a 5k and possibly even a 10k this summer (signed up for the Hy-5 IN May)

*Loose those 25lbs - I mean I understand I didn't gain them over night but wouldn't it be nice to lose them over night???

*Strive to be a happier, healthier, more positive person.  I mean I know this is kind of a whole lot grouped into one but I think they go hand in hand right? 

* Eat Healthier and eat out less.  I love to cook but there is not enough time in the day to work, workout, clean and cook - what am I super woman? 

So there you have it - I don't think that is to much to ask for is it?  So join me on my journey to a new and improved ME!
