Hey hey!
Wow, I forgot how HOT Bikram is!!!! 105 degrees, thank you very much. I think I sweat out every toxin that has ever been in my body. It was awesome. 🙂
Before I practiced, I had this lovely bar:
And afterwards, in all my sweaty smelly glory, I had a big yogurt bowl with a Voskos, 1/4 cup Ezekiel cereal, 1/4 cup Udi’s granola, dried cherries and almond butter:
Yogurt. It’s whats for dinner. I may or may not have had a piece of organic dark chocolate for dessert that missed the camera’s eye 😉
I love how CLEAN you feel after Bikram. I went in all stressed out and I left….still a little stressed, yes, but feeling like a whole new person. Maybe when I’m in Santa Rosa next week I can hit up the Santa Rosa Bikram College of India studio….that would be fun!
I’m off to read, pack and organize my life. See you in the morning!

I love dried cherries. They tie with dried strawberries for my favorite dried fruit!
Have a lovely evening.

September 22, 2009 at 9:19 pmYogurt messes have been great quick dinners for me this week! I love that I can add whatever I feel like and for some reason, almost anything goes!

September 22, 2009 at 9:20 pmHey! I’m dying to try Bikram but scared because I’m a relative newbie to yoga. How long do you recommend someone practice before her first Bikram experience?
Your yogurt bowl looks like the perfect post-sweat fest meal!

September 22, 2009 at 9:22 pmI LOVE NOR CAL. Oddly, I hate when people call it Nor Cal so I’m not sure why I just typed that. You are going to have SUCH a great time, and I can’t wait for your big announcement!

September 22, 2009 at 9:50 pmAh, that is my absolute favorite yoga in teh world- Bikram is so amazing. I do it at least 3-4 times a week, esp now that I cannot run .
On a sidenote, Jenna do you possibly have an email bc I am a student writing an article on runners dealing with injuries, and would love to speak with you if possible. Please let me know one way or another if you can. Thanks~!!

Good luck with all you going on and coming up!

September 23, 2009 at 12:03 amI am dying to try ‘hot’ yoga! It seems intimidating, but also soooo worth it.
In my opinion, a yogurt meal is great any time of the day 🙂
