Today was a milestone, I am 1/3 of the way through my 60 day challenge! WAHOO!!
These last 10 days were definitely different from the first 10 because the "euphoria" of the Challenge had worn off. As you can tell from one of my posts last week, I had a few rough days. The little voice in my head was saying, "Why are you doing this, is it really necessary?" YES IT IS! I had a new found motivation after meeting Bikram this past weekend and even had him sign the back of my Challenge card :) I figure once I get to the back of the card it will keep me focused on my goal. My body hasn't been changing as much as it did in the first 10 days, nor have I lost any more weight but I still feel great! I also got a wonderful surprise from my little sister last week with a pair of Lululemon Yoga shorts! They are ADORABLE! Since I have been going everyday, its funny how new yoga clothes can motivate a yogi :) (And help with not having to do wash all the time.)
My class today was amazing. It was one of my best yet! I had one of my favorite instructors, Raquel teaching and I was able to reach new heights in some postures that I had never been able to before. She always has that affect on me and I LOVE IT! Towards the end of class she got a bit emotional though as she explained she was moving to be with family out of state this weekend. She has been with our studio for 7 years. I was pretty upset because she, without knowing it, was like a mentor to me in Bikram. Someone I inspired to be like someday in my practice. I did have to tell her today that when/if I go to teacher training it would be so I can be just like her. As sad as she may be about leaving, I hope she finds solace knowing she touched my life and I am SURE so many others. :)
Looking forward to the next 10 days flying by!
