size 14 pants 12/8/04

To make a long story short, the midnight post office doesn't look like coming through. So frantically I searched for a seasonal job and now I am officially a Sears employee. It is rather a traditional company that requires a uniform. So I had to buy some new pairs of cotton khaki pants. Now size 14 fits just fine. My problem is it is really better if I had petit or shorter length, but with limited amount of time to search, I couldn't find non-denim with petit length. This just means I am short. But for style-wise, all the pants are too wide in legs. Maybe my weight training on legs is paying off?

weight 12/7/04

Today I went to see my web site client and said hi. I haven't seen her for months and as soon as she saw me, she said I had lost weight. In fact, no. I had my guts together yesterday and got on the scale at the gym. URGH. The weight has not only gone down, but it went back a little. However as this client said, I do look smaller and my clothes are getting baggier. Then where did my weight go? What am I doing wrong???

Whaaa 12/6/04

Spending enough time in weight training is a good idea because I do extensive stretch, too. Over the weekend, I spend a lot of time and now I can start feeling the difference. Today was leg day and I thought I stretched enough until... I went to Will's yoga class. I really don't know what about his class is so, well, GOOD. I really can't analyze or describe. Maybe the pacing is right. Maybe the way he describes how we should keep working is good. Music is appropriate. There are enough balance on different types. I can't quite pinpoint. But when I finish the class and go out of the studio, go out of the gym, get in the car and drive out, it is rather foreign feeling. I feel like I have gone somewhere and pulled back by force. Whaaa, what a feeling!

Actual conversation 12/5/04

I missed Tuesday's class last week because I was upgrading to Panther and maybe I was lucky. Because on Thursday, here is what I heard.

Teacher: So how did you all guys feel after Tuesday?
Student 1: My shoulders were sore.
Student 2: My back hurt yesterday, but it is fine today.

Now does this sound like from a yoga class?
