Day 80: Only 10 days left!!

Wow, only 10 days left! Crazy.

Today was yoga. Could tell that I didn’t do it last week. And that my legs were tired from yesterday. In the spirit of recent blogs, I’m going to go with the “random thoughts” format… so here I go:

• The Melissa girl in the DVD was recently named one of the Top Ten Hot Chefs by some magazine or website. Maybe Tony will get her name right now; you know because the DVD changes as time passes.
• Someone suggested that the other girl (whose name totally escapes me currently) might be Tony’s girlfriend. Apparently she has the same name (whatever that is) as the girlfriend he dedicated his book to. If that’s the case I bed this is Tony’s favorite workout cast: girlfriend, chef, and yoga guru. Certainly people he spends a lot of time with, one would think. Now, if he could just remember their names (I say, as I can’t remember the one girl’s name).
• I had no balance today. Not sure if I should blame the week off or the leg workout from yesterday. Either way, I was stumbling and shaking. I actually fell over in triangle pose; that hasn’t happened in ages. No crane today. One near balance in crane and then I was toast.
• I am totally capable of falling asleep in child’s pose.
• I am not capable of falling asleep in frog. I want to be.
• I can almost fall asleep in plough.
• I skipped savasana at the end to avoid actually falling asleep.

Two more P.A.P. days this week: lower and then upper. I’d like to foam roll this weekend and get out for a run. Then just one more Mon-Fri and it’s picture time! I’m a little scared of the “after” pictures. I keep thinking that I should’ve made more of an effort with the food. These past few days have been pretty good and so far I’ve only given in to Easter candy once this season. But last week, with lots of birthday events for my son, was a greasy, sugary mess.

So, while pictures scare me, I’m more excited about the “after” fit test. I bet I can do a lot more reps. I bet I can kill those “before” numbers. Somewhere between my fear of the pictures and my hope for the fit test is my unsureness (is that a word?) about the measurements. Clothes are fitting better but I’m just not sure what the numbers will say…not sure what I expect or hope for.

Conveniently, my biometric screening for health insurance at work is on day 89. It’ll be nice to see how those numbers look now and how they compare to numbers from one and two years ago.
