Moving On Up

Tuesday, May 10, 2005

I have been on this exercise kick. I have exceeded the recommended three times a week for thirty minutes. On average I've been running about 3.5 miles and an hour of yoga. There are a couple of interesting side effects that I had not expected. 1.) I actually feel like I am living in my body not just the space in-between my ears. 2.) I sleep soooo much better 3.) I have an awareness of my boundaries. Yes or No seem so much easier to express. 4.) I eat every two hours and stop when I'm full. Eating and sleeping are two of my favorite activities, the more I can do them the better! 5.) A serving size of ice cream is (gasp) satisfying!!!!

I have two long term goals: One is to fit in this kick ass red velvet cocktail dress I have. The second is to participate in a triathlon in October. WHOOOHOOO!!!

As an amendment to this new "hobby" I have. I am not one of those skinny bitches. I am proportional. I am very curvy. I haven't always been in the best shape and I haven't always taken the best care of my body. Thank you tequila!! I started out slowly. My advice to you: Do something good for yourself.
