my very own 60 challenge...



ok so this is a very tiny picture of me on Tuesday 2/26 while at work. Sarah took this with her phone. Any ways I listen to a particular morning show called the Johnjay and Rich show, which some of you may know seeing as though my cousin was going to hang out there, any way Johnjay decided to do a 60 yoga challenge and he made it. 60 straight days of yoga, well I thought that was very inspiring and I have been having a lot of back problems while being pregnant, so I thought I would give it a try. I went online to Amazon.com and bought a Pregnancy Yoga DVD which came in the mail yesterday. I instantly popped it into the DVD player and did day 1 of my very own 60 day challenge. I don't know if I will honestly make it the full 60 days seeing as though I'm due in 61 days but I will be doing this workout everyday till I burst! It was definitely a lot harder than I thought it was going to be, I didn't realize how tight my muscles were until I was trying to stretch. The workout is only about 40 mins and it was great, it has numerous back stretches and leg stretches ( both of which I despretly needed ) and it also has an awesome relaxation moves. All in all it was a great workout, I didn't feel over worked or out of breath. It was all just perfect for my pregnancy aches and pains. Well you might be asking yourself how I feel this morning and let me tell you that I feel GREAT!!! No back pain what so ever! I love it! I can't wait to get home and complete my day 2. So all of my pregnant cousins, I suggest you go out and get yourself a pregnancy yoga dvd, you won't regret it!! ok here is the actual dvd I bought, it cost me $7 dollars because I looked under used & new and found this which was actually new in the packaging and I paid about $3 in shipping and handling.

i tried some yoga positions that i got from a website and i felt great the next morning! i will keep doing it so hopefully i will have less back pain, because it HURTS! So i had my apt today and my little girl (yes she is still a girl) is looking great! they still measure her big. she is a little over 5 lbs right now. (so they say) and she looks SO cute! its crazy to see how developed she is now. and by the looks of it, she is going to have huge cheeks! i cant wait!! :)
