I know. I know. Look at the last time I posted which, honestly, looks like I haven't been exercising in the last 2 months. Sadly, it is nearly true. When we went to Arizona I lost my focus and got out of my routine. I did go to a gym and ran through as many of my exercises as I could without getting down onto the dirty floor. I let my diet go as well because I thought, "Hey! I'm on vacation, let's splurge." I can happily say, though, that I drank LOTS of iced green tea and spent a lot of time with long lost friends.
For the last two weeks I have been teaching yoga, an hour and twenty minutes twice a week at the college. This is great because it is getting me back into my yoga-zone and letting me know how much my body has changed in the last 2 months.
That being said, I have reached my limit. I cannot wait any longer. I MUST do something about this body and the way I have been feeling.
My energy level has been low, I've been feeling despondent and easily distracted. Emotional doesn't even cover it. PLUS, I feel terribly bloated because I've been consuming dairy at a rate comparable to a calf and salty snacks.
I have signed up for Staff Fitness at the college allowing me to use the weight room and exercise equipment. I am really looking forward to doing this on the other days of the week that I'm not doing yoga.
Yesterday marked my first day dairy free. I am saddened because that means no more cheese and I really, really love cheese. But I will survive. Now I need to find some healthy, crunchy snacks to keep in my office while I work.
This is progress. I am excited to get back on the path to feeling amazing and healthy. Please join me in the adventure!

I have some serious work to do.

My diet needs to change.
