new age hippie girl

so i got these yoga tapes from amazon today. i thought i needed some variety in my workout tape mix. plus everyone is always yammering about how wonderful yoga is. plus, some relaxation and escape from the worries and stree of being the internet’s sweetheart can’t be a bad thing, right?

well, i kinda feel like some new age hippie freak. i liked doing the stretches and whatnot. well, the best that i could do the stretches. there were some poses that my body just laughed at and my eyes bulged at when instructed to do. i am nowhere near as flexible as yogamistress.

it wouldn’t be so bad if there wasn’t all that chimey newage music crap and the whole tape wasn’t filmed in the desert. but well. . .

i suppose it might have been much more relaxing had my brain not been screaming at me the whole time, “they want you to do what?” “ha! like your forehead is ever gonna touch the floor.” “fat chance that’s gonna happen.” “clearly, she’s made out of rubber.”

despite my complaints, i can’t wait to give the a.m. yoga tape a shot in the a.m. i need ever little bit of help i can get.

so yes, this is me trying.

    YAY! I’m so proud of you I could burst. I’d only eaten twice today but I’m going to go cram down that third meal because you inspired me. Seriously though, it helps me to know that I’m not the only one trying to change my life right now. Love ya bunches. Hang in there and keep up with it.

    Hmm. Tyson, do you need to gain weight? Jodi, good for you! That’s way more than I have done in a long, long time. Like I don’t even fool myself into believing that I’d use the tapes if I bought them. Because I wouldn’t. *sigh*

    Seriously, I hope you do better with it than I did. I got my tape way back in January and probably tried it a total of 6 times over three weeks and the thing is just sitting there gathering dust now. Make sure you reward yourself for being a good internet sweetheart…
