I'm Back from the Boonies..

Sorry lovelies, no internet in the woodlands of Colorado!!! I fully missed all of you!

Right now im on spring break but working doing a house sitting gig out in BFE. It is truly beautiful out there, Snow on the ground, Evergreens and Bluest of Skys. I'm currently taking care of two dogs and two cats... I walk the dogs at least twice a day for a mile or two. Come to find out I'm Allergic to cats!!! Full blown sneezing, runny nose and sinus pressure. It's getting worse each day. Thank goodness I'm done on Monday.

Okay now on too the Banded Life,

Soo, I got my first fill a week or so ago and NADA! I mean really, no restriction whatso ever!!! So I made an appointment for fill #2 on the 23 of March! Yay, March Madness Here I Come...

I really liked what another bandster said about Bandster Hell.. Sorry, Bandito is it??? Not sure anyways. The point that sticks with me from the blog post is to treat this time "Bandster Hell" as a gentle yet effective training period to make healthy food choices and KICK UP THE EXCERSICE!!!

Anyway you like it ladies and radical gentlemen. For me the Yoga sessions 2 - 3 times a week Really Really Im mean really make a difference. My weight has puts a lot of pressure around my hips and in turn my low back and neck have taken a beating. Sometimes i wake up in the middle of the night with severe pain and the only thing that has provided me relief and strength has been yoga. When I slack on the classes, my body makes no hesitation to remind me. Just how much it still hurts.

So for March Madness, I am trying to stay focused on going to at least 3 classes a week and fitting in 2-3 days of elliptical.

As far as food choices go Ummm i think i might still need some work on that. I tend to go for carby thing & quick fixes. So im trying to plan meals a bit better, but needing some more inspiration.

Well take care and keep smiling bandsters.

not BFE?! *LMAO* Bum F%^k Egypt, indeed!

Glad you're back! You have such a way with words that just makes me giggle with delight. Such a riot, you are...

I think im gonna try a yoga class or two (wil try it first onthe exercise channel) Also, not sure if you have it where you're located, but Bellydaning is an AWESOME exercise (be careful tho - hat's how I got knocked-up...seriously). When the weather is fully broken here, i'll be back at that 2x a week, plus yoga or zumba/samba. *giggety giggety*
