I completed the entire Yoga X routine today, with much higher participation than last week. Going into the routine I decided that I need to add my own soundtrack. The routine being Yoga, I thought that it ought to be something calm and relaxing, so Slipknot was out. I settled on Pink Floyd (Dark Side of the Moon and Wish You Were Here). This worked well for me by giving me something to focus on while I am stuck in all those uncomfortable positions for what seems like forever. I’ll have to add another album to the playlist next week as the music ended before the routine was finished. I achieved 899 Calories burned today! Alas, I seem to be stuck on a plateau. I feel that with all the work (calories burned) and strict adherence to my diet, I should have lost some weight over the last three days. I’m starting to wonder if this is a result of consistently low caloric intake in my diet, and that if started counting my calories and force a minimum of 1400 Calories in my diet, that maybe this problem will go away. Then again, a three day plateau is likely not an indication that a problem exists, but it could just be a that my body needs to re-adjust before I can lose more weight. Starting to get a little frustrated...
