30 Day Yoga Challenge

What do you get when you combine two friends who are terrified of the winter weight gain? A 30 day yoga/vegetarian challenge! It is really quite simple:

1. Have a friend who has intermediate-hard level knowledge in yoga.
2. Do serious yoga everyday for 30 days.
3. Eat lots of grains, fruits, and veggies... but no meat. No alcohol. No smokes. For 30 days.

Ashley's POV : Day 2 - Detox/ non- smoking /30 day yoga challenge

This is the sign I should be wearing on my forehead today :

Beware! Talking to me could end like this:

a. Fuck you!
b. No, fuck you!!!
c. Go, Fuck yourself !!!
d. No really, I’m serious go fuck yourself !!!!

Started the day off right, with getting into a fight with the Manager at the drive through of my local McDonalds . Apparently it took time to cook egg whites because they didn’t have healthy food accessible immediately but prepared upon request….who knew? However, this is a drive-thru and I needed them ASAP or I would be late for work.  I really wish I knew all this before I paid for it because I ended up leaving without egg whites, less money and now a longer distance to travel in the morning to Tim Horton’s for my tea because I literally can never show my face there again due to the bitch decimal I went too.

Note to self, when doing a detox, prepare your meals ahead of time. I called my dad to bitch about the situation and he responded with “ Ya know, I like you better when you’re a smoker”.  You can imagine what letter I choose from the imaginary sign above that ended that conversation.

 LEARN TIME MANAGEMENT SKILLS!

The rest of the day consisted of taming the beast that roamed inside the veins of my blood.  By the time I got to Ili’s to do yoga together, I wanted to just sit down on the floor, cross my legs and rock back and forth and hisss, ya know…… to self soothe but I realized she would probably assume that I had become clinically nuts and try and have me formed at a local hospital.  However, when I saw her face and how distressed she was, a sign of relief came over me. Listen, I’m not masochistic or anything but I’m not going to lie, it felt so freaking great, knowing she was going through just as much turmoil as I was !!!

Finally!!!!! Someone who could relate!!! Blessed be!

Quitting smoking is one thing but not being able to eat those comfort foods during those moments of bad cravings, brings this process to a whole new level.

It is always nice to do this process with someone because you will need the support.

 You can have all the will power in the world but unless, you have someone to talk to who really understands what your going through, it would be like talking to someone who speaks a different language. No comprehension !!!
