Week Two

Well, I was quiet for two days. Because I could barely move. I started on my new Blood Pressure Meds last week and either they worked too well or the Hot Yoga did me in. Because my BP this weekend was super low and I could not even stay awake. Which really made my husband happy. (there is only bold or italic for the lettering, no sarcasm type font)
So Today was the start of the new week. I landed at 5 pounds down after a week, yeah me. Pretty sure I sweated all my unnecessary body fluid in yoga and clearly that weighs five pounds.
So last week did 4 hot yogas and one Zumba.
Went to Hot Yoga tonight. Clearly I worry the instructor; she put me by the door and opened it several times. I figured out if I tried to look like I was going to faint she opened the door. It became kind of like a game for me. But it backfired because a couple times she left it open so long I actually got cold!
I went to the store again tonight and clearly this is going to be one of my many challenges. I was white knuckle again and the damn ding dongs were right there again. I didn't realize until now how bad my habits were. On many visits to the store it was not uncommon for me to stop in the bakery for a donut or two, one of which got eaten while I shopped. That is so sad. I would rationalize it that they made me thirsty and I always drank a giant bottle of water with them so that made it okay.
Today I am so fricking Hungry I am very cranky. While in the store I kept barking at my 12 year old. At one point she asked me for the third time while on the same aisle what I was getting. I snapped "cereal, what do you think it is the cereal aisle" I think I hissed too. When we got home her Safeway chinese which is really quite gross, actually looked amazing to me. Plus she would not stop talking, I finally had to ask her not to talk because mommy was hungry.
I did a photo shoot today for a friend and her adult kids, and that was a great distraction. I am really going to start thinking about trying to make a part time business out of it. It makes me very happy.
So here are some things I learned about Weightwatchers and Hot Yoga today:
1 - I think it is a bunch of crap that as you lose weight you get less points. Whatever I am sure it works, but it seems like I should get a reward not less food.
2 - Really? wth? if you are a smoker and doing Hot Yoga, that seems a little warped. I do not enjoy smelling the nicotin being sweated out of your pores.
3 - I think because of multiple sinus surgeries I really avoid breathing with my nose. Who knew that was going to be one of the hardest things in the class for me today.
4 - I really got a kick out of watching the gal in her first class make a face when they said your only goal is to stay the entire time. Ha! You may be all skinny bitch, but it sure was fun to see you wanting to bolt about half way thru.
5 - I am certain that it is possible to pull an ovary.
6 - It is actually physically possible for one bead of sweat to start at your neck and go all the way down your back, dodge your bra strap and go straight down your butt crack.
7 - And no one but me seems to think that #6 is fascinating.
8 - If you leave your yoga towel in your car, your car will smell like butt.
9 - Jello may be zero points, but so is eating air.
10 - Baileys is not zero points, but is much more satisfying than eating air.
11 - I turn forty in two weeks. It finally hit home when I noticed that the milk in the fridge doesn't expire until after I turn forty.
