Core Power Yoga Obsession

A few months ago I professed my love for Core Power Yoga.  After a couple weeks free I was on the fence about getting a membership (mainly  due to price and not knowing my new job schedule).    While I was having this internal debate a Groupon came out for 30 days for $60.  I jumped on it. 

I am two weeks in and still loving it.  I feel better, my mind is more clear, my priorities are in order-I feel like I am high on life.  My favorite classes are Heated Power Yoga with Weights and Hot Power Fusion.  I am a disgusting mess after each class, but it feels amazing to sweat like a pig.  Yes, I just said that.  I am literally drenched head to toe.  Think of working out in 95-105 degree weather with humidity. 

I love that I have found a way to be active that I enjoy.  I haven’t seen the scale move at all {which bums me out}, but I have lost over an inch in my stomach.  It is always the first place I lose weight so hopefully the pounds will start to fall off.

Are you a yogie?  What actives do you love? What is your favorite at home workout?  

Weekend Recap

This weekend was one for the books!  It started off Friday night seeing ARG0 at the Archlight on Sunset.  This was a very special occasion because our good friend has been Ben's assistant for the past 3 years and of course we have to support him.  About 15 of us got together for drinks at the theater before the movie and then saw it in the dome.  The movie was awesome.  Afterwards we headed to Stout for burgers and beer.  It was one of the best nights out with friends we have had in awhile.  It was also fun to be out in Hollywood for the night.

The rest of our weekend was spent walking down by the beach, watching the Gators win, dinner with friends and their adorable son, NFL games, grocery shopping and of course The Walking Dead premier.
