start doing yoga again

I’ve been really motivated lately to get back in shape and right now yoga is the best way to start for me. I have back problems and my posture is terrible and I don’t want to do anything intense until my back muscles are stronger. I need a new yoga mat. I have two right now and I lay them on top of each other for extra cushioning (again, back issues) and they are both pretty old but the first one I ever had is ancient. It is ready for retirement. Plus Juno thinks its great to claw them up. I can’t have anything!

I didn’t realize how much I missed it until I started doing it again. I can already feel my back muscles tightening and getting stronger. I am still feeling sore so some things are hard for me to do. I’m not as flexible as I used to be and I feel like crud, because the person in my yoga dvd is a guy and he is WAY more flexible than any man should ever be. I feel like, as a woman I have to be more flexible than this guy. I don’t know why I feel that way but I do.

I’m a weirdo I know.

I’m sorry, what was that? Who is doing yoga again? Me? Oh you silly muffin!!!

I did an hour of yoga today! Yay me! My lower back is so sore that when I sit down and stand up I cry out in pain, but that’s okay!

I lost my yogilates dvd somehow or other in the move and I didn’t realize it until I dug the case out to actually do a workout. I opened it and I was all ready to do the workout but there was no dvd! So I went to the store yesterday and bought a yoga dvd and a pilates dvd so if I do both of them in one day then its yogilates… or at least it is in my little world.
