Day One-Yogi journey begins

This is the book we are using as our guide on 40 on our challenge.

Monday-Sept 20, 2010

Well I made it to the start day!  I have heard it said getting started is half the battle.  I began this day at work working 7p-7a.  I have never backed down from a challenge but I am unsure of where this one will take me.  I began logging my food diet at midnight.  It really makes you think twice about what you are eating when you have to write it down. I am going to try and not eat meat for 40 days.   I came home and every being in my body said....."Go to bed."  I had to go do five minutes of meditation first.  Okay....light candle.....start timer.....relax.  Man my back hurts.....I am so tired....check phone......what only half the pie is gone......focus breathe.....I think I am about to fall asleep......gong....gong.....gong.  Okay wait....need to talk to God for a minute or two.  Okay.....bed.  Sleep four hours.  Meditate again.....thank goodness it is only 5 minutes. Yoga time.  Heated up the "mancave".....aka new yoga space and did 20 minutes of posing.  Found it rather relaxing considering how sore I was from my class the day before.  Okay done......wait.....I am supposed to be training for a marathon.  Ran 1 mile and then 
decided I may have to scale back my training for the next 40 days.  Okay ready for work.  Back to work.  Hmmm....day one not too hard.  Would really like a chik-fil-a sandwich....no I would have to put that on my blog that I was a loser on day one.  Tomorrow class in am and meeting tomorrow night.....also work and kid taxi service.  Sleep is really overrated.
