Do you ever have those days where all you want to do is hang out and smile and laugh and be happy? Today is that day for me.

The Netflix Workout Today:

Billy Blanks: Tae Bo: Cardio Circuit 2

I worked out for the first time since Friday. I had major kick-a** energy. It was great! I loved to be able to move and jump and kick and such.

It was 53 minutes of high -energy. Gotta love that Billy Blanks.

I worked out so hard I was coughing up phlegm. Well, as they say 'better out than in.'

Speaking of "out" I go in for my COLONICS today.

I didn't want to admit it but I'm kind of nervous. Not fearful but kind of hesitant of that unknown. It's not everyday you have someone stick something up your. . . well you get it.

I know I'll be fine. No one has really died from colonics.

Right?

I'll let you know about that experience tomorrow. Maybe provide photos. I am so very kidding.

I discovered the impact of juice feasting last night at the Raw Utopia rawluck. There were 8 people in attendence and only ONE person was eating the food.

Everyone else was juice feasting or in my case eating prunes. How fun is that?

Speaking of prunes, Ben Kaelan and Dhammala, asked how I like them.

The soaked prunes don't taste too bad. The texture is just wrong! They are too mushy. ;0

Thank you to:
Stacey, Kathy , Sheba Wheeler , Sarah , Dhammala , Ben Kaelan , Keely , Linda in the Raw and Hanlie for your rawsome comments. You all Rawk!

I was thinking about what to do with this blog now that I'm not juice feasting. I have to give that some thought and I will share that tomorrow as well.

Peace and Love,

The Netflix Workout

I love sharing! I especially love sharing things that inspire me because I hope that you too can find something inspiring in what I share.

Anyhoo. On to the Netflix Workout and no it's not watching movies all day. Although, some days I could easily do that. I enjoy movies.

My inspiration for The Netflix Workout is having limited funds and an abundance of energy. If I had the funds I would continue with my daily Bikram Yoga practice, take dance lessons, Tai Chi and kickboxing. I love to be physical. I love to burn energy.

Okay here is how it works.

If you have a Netflix or Blockbuster home delivery account, in your queue add a variety of workout videos that you might enjoy working out to. Space them apart every 5-7 DVDs.

To start, you should receive one workout video and two movies.

Start working out everyday, every other day, twice a day. That part is up to you but, yes, you do have to actually work out.

When you've watched your movies, return them but keep your workout video and continue to workout.

Only return your current workout video when you get a new one.

You get great workouts and you keep your body guessing on what's coming next which is always good.

My Netflix Workout for today is:

Billy Blanks: Tae Bo: Cardio Circuit 1

This video is a good start for me, it's short (only 37 minutes) and the enthusiastic participants made me realize maybe I don't have as much energy as I thought.

My stepson Kevin asked why I wasn't cheering after each passage like they were and I shot back "What do I have to be cheerful for? I'm being tortured."

I definitely have room to grow. Which is always good.
