OK time to get moving. Going to a 90 min Hot Yoga class at 9:30 then finish breakfast and be sure to have tons of water. Eating too much before this class and I will toss my cookies and I am not bulimic! Well not cookies Jenny Craig Sunshine Sandwich. Lunch will be Jenny all the way and dinner is a planned "meal on my own" Thinking seared ahi with some grilled veggies. Also no charge cards.
On Friday I mentioned buying some books and later thought someone might accuse me of cheating. They were paid for in cash by Jack so there! All is well. Yesterday was a perfect Jenny day but not so active . The headache did ME in. Alcohol will be 1 day a week. I noticed many things coming up in September on the old social calender including Labor Day. Labor Day is traditionally one part BBQ and 3 parts beer. Going to my Sister's cabin in Boulder Creek and she is on board for "clean" grilling. Gonna find those Skinny Girl Margaritas invented by my idol Betheny Frankel - one of the original Real Houseiwves of New York City. A guilty pleasuer of mine.
I think I am going to start taking some pictures of my food because I do like to jazz it up. Love to watch "Chopped" and go into the kitchen and pretend, . I am like " In today's mystery basket we have Jenny Craig cheesy potatoes, lemon, mushrooms and Jenny Craig Tomato Florentine Soupitizer GO!" Being creative with the Jenny food is fun and pays off. Crystal light or iced tea and home made lemonade with splenda also fill me up and hydrate. I am going on to week 4 of JC and will probably have a total of 10 pounds off on weigh in day on Thursday. That is the hope.
Feeling excited about yoga. I started yoga in March and have not done it since the beginning of July. Not sure why I stopped my back did hurt a consequence of over stretching something that is quite possible in that hot room. I was doing it while Elaine took a break from basketball and horseback riding so when basketball started again I got put on the back burner. Hard to do it all. The pace you have to go makes me too tired! I hate being rushed and or late. As a result I do not over book myself. The end result is that everyone in the house gets to do what they want and my only activity is eating and online shopping. Time for myself is not selfish but sometimes it feels that way. I think that is a Catholic guilt thing that I need to get over. It will not kill anyone if I sneak out. As the Mom I cannot come and go as I please like a Dad. That is how it feels to me. He said last night " oh yhea I forgot I am going to the game with Peter and then left!" I could never do that he would flip the world would stop rotating and my husband would act like a child. That is one of the parts in marriage or my marriage that is not fair. He golfed yesturday I stayed home. I am going to Yoga damn it!
. My wishes for the day, the fog goes away, The Giants win and I do not look like an inflexible giant in Yoga. I have to admit next to the tiny Asians in class I feel enourmous. I like to stand near the dudes because I am better at it them most of them. MOST some are mini Bikrams and you can spot them a mile away by their muscles. Ususally they are in the front too. My goal is to get to the middle row. The front is full of young bendy girlsand maybe a mini Bikram dude. Middle row is a mixed bag of people that are running late and bendy people. The last row and the people that tend to stick near the window and or door are my people! they are just hoping that the teacher will crack the window for a second so they can feel the fog.
I love the Yoga teachers. I love their calming voices. There are 2 that stand out. A Columbian bomb shell that recites the poses and moves in a high energy sexy enthusiastic columbian voice. I can hear her ' back back way back now CHARGE forward." in her accent I really think she should do sex books on tape. The other is from Boston. She ends every line with "lock you knees" Sounding like a Kennedy she reminds me of am unpire I keep thinking she'll yell " your out!" I am suppose to be meditating but come on impossible with those two guiding me through my pracitce of bikram Yoga.
My reward at the end of the week will be getting hair done and a massage! I can not wait. Feeling good today!
