Ok, so yesterday I made choc chip cookies (of course homemade -- I mean really is there any other kind? ). Yes, I'm trying to lose weight and I make cookies. What can I say, I'm looney. So I ate 4 cookies - 1 b/4 dinner, 1 after dinner and 2 while watching Lost. I don't even like choc chip cookies. I only like them when they are still warm (yeah, yeah heating them up the next day for 10 sec in the microwave achieves this very well). So ok, I ate them. Then I ate several, several, handfulls of cheese puffs. Oh they are so tasty! Especially the soft ones (cheese puffs connoisseurs know what I mean). I felt somewhat guilty but also know this is just par for the course. I woke up today with that 'ugh, why did I do that' feeling but shrugged it off. I enjoyed what I ate and today is another day.
So I didn't really feel like exercising and was pussyfooting around (ooo, must update my ipod, must adjust my headphones 12 times, must fix the squeek going on w/the TM) but I did go down and do it. I decided I really didn't feel like doing those high intensity intervals so I just ran at a decent pace instead. I was mentally not into it at all. Then something kicked in and it felt great and Murphy's Law being what it is, I was at this point short on time. Got in about 25 min when I had to stop to take my kid to the bus, but came back home and hopped on and did another 12 min. Figured it would help compensate for yesterdays attack of the killer cookies. Then I did a yoga tape. Rodney Yee's A.M. Yoga. Anyone ever do one of his w/o's? You can have your Arnolds and your PX90 bods, Rodney Yee an absolute perfect specimen of the male form. I'm a yoga novice - no, less than that - so I have to look at what he is doing. When he places one hand on his lower belly and the other on his solar plexis !!! Let's just say that he is more than ready for his close up, Mr. DeMille. Let's just say that RY is very, very -- um, fit.
So back on track today, good b-fast and will cut back a bit on the cals. I think I'll look into yoga some more. Makes me feel taller.
Namaste.
