What Inspires Me?

What inspires me is very easy.  I have a niece and two nephews and one more niece will be born at the end of December.  These little people of mine inspire me every day.  And each one has their own awesome little personalities.  I have a lot of fun watching them grow up and become themselves in this crazy world of ours.  They are the best people to be around because of their innocence and how the little things make them happy.  I am very happy to be their Aunt Erin.  Pure awesomeness at its best for sure when I am around my niece and nephews.

Schedule

I think I may have my schedule/routine finally down.  DDPYoga 3 days a week along with a bike ride, swimming 2 days a week, mowing the yard one day a week, and then a day off (possibly a yoga day).  I may throw in a hike or two during the week as well depending on work.

I am a little sore after today's swim.  Totally expected though.  My legs were like jello when I finally got out after 45 minutes.  I then went to see my chiropractor and got nice and cracked all over my back and neck.  It felt great.  Now that I am adjusted and my work out is over, it is time to actually get some work done.

Peace Out!

Yoga Session - Fear!

I did my DDPYoga session this morning and now it is time to spend some time gardening.  I have some fresh veggies to pick.  I have a lot of fear knocking at the door right now and I am not sure how to handle it.  The fear I have is letting go of drinking sodas and consuming dairy.  I know once I stop doing both of these, I will start losing weight along with doing DDPYoga, and once the weight drops, how will I be perceived?  How will people look at me?  Will my family finally stop judging me on every aspect of my life?

Fear is an ugly beast.

Sunday Yoga

Did my yoga session this morning and totally felt it from start to finish.  I am going to be posting my goals and some photos this upcoming week.  My soda intake stops today.  Dairy intake will stop by Friday.  But, one goal is to lose 100 lbs by August 1, 2014, if not sooner.  I am also incorporating swimming twice a week in conjunction with DDPYoga.  Living in Denver, there are numerous opportunities to go hiking once a week as well.  More updates this week.

Day 2 - Swim

Decided to swim today.  I am more sore than I thought I was going to be after swimming laps today.  DDPYoga is tomorrow's workout.

Day 1

Just completed day 1 of DDPYoga.  Totally kicked my ass and I really needed it.  Sweated up a storm and I feel so much better and stretched out.  Awesome morning.

Official Start

I officially start DDPYoga tomorrow morning.  I have my new yoga mat and the DVD's.  I look forward to finally start this.  Owning my life tomorrow for sure.

DDP Yoga package

Finally got my package from DDP Yoga today. I start on Wednesday. Tomorrow I swim, then yoga and a bike ride on Wednesday. Super excited to start this journey.

Last Days

These are the last days of eating what I want and eating more than I should.  I really look forward to DDP Yoga sessions starting soon once I get my package in the mail.  This will go well my walking, biking, and swimming that I am already doing.

Have a great Fourth of July!!

Profile

I just updated my profile.  I will add more later, but I think this will work for now.  Still learning how to use a blog.  It is fun learning new things.

DDP Yoga Challenge

I am starting the DDP Yoga challenge here very soon (as soon as I get my yoga package from DDP Yoga).  I look forward to this challenge.  I have heard a lot of positive things about DDPYoga.
