Yup, as long as the top looks alright to me, I don't care what is going on with the parts I can't see.

On an actual fitness related note, I did a whole hour of Yoga this evening, non stop. I really have not been able to do that comfortably in a very long time. I usually only do a half hour-ish.
Perhaps though I still go on smoking binges, my time otherwise when I make a point not to smoke is actually having benefit.

^ Wow, an hour? That's a long time. For me, anyway.

I was able to do 30 minutes of cardio this morning, so I'm slowly getting back to normal.

I did "The Firm" workout with resistance band for 30 minutes last night and today I'm feeling it in my ass and obliques...which is nice to know I actually worked those parts. Tonight, it's back on the treadmill.

Yes, the sore ass, the greatest of all workout sorenesses.

My friend does "Slim in 6" and she says it works good if you do it. It must, she dropped weight like a hot potato.

I'm glad you're not still almost kinda sick.

I assumed the yoga class you were going to was an hour. I imagine your lungs are fine, is it usually just too boring to do yoga for an hour?

I haven't heard of it but I think that's great. Honestly the threads here have helped with my motivation. I can't imagine it would be a bad thing to join up with that group.

That chick lost 90 lbs? She doesn't have any saggy skin so she either lost it gradually or already had the surgery. Well she said it took 3 years so she probably did it the right way. Holy crap.

i know, i was really inspired by how she looks b/c that is how much i have to lose, total. i've been worried since the beginning about saggy skin and shiz, so i feel better about it now.

i just joined a group @ peertrainer called "dykes downsizing."

What's Slim in 6?

I love hot potatoes.

The class is over, not sure if they'll do another one next semester. But it was only about 40 minutes.

Incidentally, that b*tch does not need to lose 10 lbs IMO.

If she does then I need to lose 30. I mean really.

Could've been Lesbians Losing. But that doesn't have as "positive" a connotation.

No one likes to lose. Except weight.

i was just reading her blog, and she's at 155-ish. i don't know how tall she is, but maybe she wants to be down 10 pounds to be at her ideal BMI? who knows. my dream goal is 130 but i will be happy/healthy at 140.

i feel like a total glutton ... i've missed several days at the gym. i was on my way out the door last night at 8:30 and realized i couldn't find my wallet. searched and searched, but by the time i found it, it was almost 10, which is when they close. fark.

Oh okay, she looked smaller than that.

I hate when I can't get out of my own way like that (losing wallet). I just laugh at myself at this point cuz I know it'll never change. I'm always losing crap!
