Hello Out There
So, it's been a while since I have posted (here or at my main blog). Sorry. I have been busy with job and summer weekends at the lake and job. Here's the update:
(1) I'm really excited that LizaJane has reversed her blog suicide and now has a new blog! Hi darling!! I miss you! Facebook stalking is not enough, I need the blog-stalking too! :^)
(2) I decided that P90X was total shit, because there is no way that I can motivate myself to do 60-90 minutes of intense workouts at my house 6 days a week, even with a buddy doing them at her own house, which makes me feel terrible about my lack of motivation and the dire outlook for ever getting back into shape.
(3) I joined the Y in June and immediately signed up for a locker (bonus: each locker comes with a mesh bag into which you can place dirty gym clothes to be washed and returned to your locker by the next day. Huzzah!). Forking over $65 a month is motivating. Plus, there is a branch 2 blocks from my office, and 2 brances within a mile of my house. No excuse not to go!
(4) The Y is good. I have exercised 4-5 per week, ever week since joining. That is because Work Friend is also a Y member, and we make plans to either meet there for the pre-work spin class or walk over together after work. Also, Boss and Work Friend's Boss go to hot yoga at lunch 3 days a week, and we have started going with them.
(5) I am in love with and addicted to Bikram Yoga.
(6) I have pulled out the one brown suit that I have not been able to wear since pre-California bar exam, and I am getting close! That's my target. Not the pounds lost (although that's nice too). Not the muscle tone (although I do really enjoy that). I will know I am there when I can comfortably wear the brown pencil skirt (with kick-pleating in the back) with fitted jacket.
(7) I have also started shopping exclusively at Whole Foods, and I am trying to eradicate all processed, non-organic foods from my diet. This has been a very successful (and tasty) experiment, and one that makes a dramatic difference in the way I feel! Hooray for whole foods (and Whole Foods)!

I miss you too! And I love your reaction to P90X. I feel like it's totally reasonable to eschew a workout program with that kind of time committment. We need to have a reunion soon!
