Hello Fierce Ones!
I'm sorry I've been MIA. Cataddict, it was nothing to do with your comments -- I think I felt them exactly in the spirit they were given and I appreciated it! I have just been busy.
Nice to hear about our gals who had a vacation -- nice! Kim, I always tend to lose weight on vacations because we are busy, I walk a lot, but mostly I don't have any time for boredom snacking. Sounds like you had a good, full time. manleym, I want to hear about that fish you caught! Sounds like a good time with family.
Oh that Lauren challenge idea makes my glutes hurt just thinking about it.....
cataddict, I was honestly glad to know your body sometimes tells you to rest. This morning my body was almost telling me that, but I realized I haven't done a weight workout in quite a few days, so I did PHA 2. That's probably the easiest one of the bunch and my favorite. Probably not a coincidence.
I don't think I've posted about this, but the other day I did Brent's Patience practice from ID -- I got his name right, didn't I? I can't remember if it was Kim or manleym who mentioned him. I think maybe whoever it was said they had tried Determination and really liked it. Well, somehow I thought Patience might be easier. I don't know how Determination is, but Patience seemed quite hard to me. A whole lot of plank and side plank work in various balancing positions.
But it was nice to have done a full yoga practice again. I definitely need to work it in more.
kittybug I'm sorry to hear you're not feeling well! I hope you knock down that virus, or whatever it is, quickly and I hope you can figure out the hip/IT band problem -- that sounds like it could be painful. You should probably take it a bit easy for a while.
I may have told you that I'm off to visit my sister on Friday -- first time seeing her in almost two years, I think. I cannot wait. I am helping her with a lavender festival they are having, so it's going to be a lot of work in the heat, but I'm going to be so happy to spend time with her.
Sending big hugs out to all of you fierce ones.
