Bikram Yogi

Last night I finally went for it and took the plunge. Meggie and I have been sitting on these groupons of one month unlimited classes at Bikram. It was the night before and I packed my bags like it was my first day of school. I was so excited! I was ready for anything and heard that Bikram was def pretty insane and you sweat until you cant sweat no more. I didn't think that I would be that sweaty just bc I really don't sweat. I mean, ill have a lil bead of sweat here or there at the beach but nothing where it looks like i jumped in a pool. Until last night. I could not believe the amount of water that was seeping out of my pores. (sorry to get all graphic but i did not think this was even a possibility!) It was so disgusting half way through the class I took off my shirt and just sat there bc first I felt like I was going to pass out and 2nd bc I just couldn't stand looking at myself in a soaked tee. (no I was not being a nudist, everyone is pretty much in underwear or bikini's and men in speedo's.. not my fav part.) However, being so disgustingly sweaty made me feel 150% better. I felt as if the toxins that have been building up in my body had vanished. and I want to do it over and over again. I did not go to the extremes with my first class. I wanted to pace myself so I didn't actually pass out. I did not leave the room once, which I felt very proud of :) hopefully with this one month of unlimited classes I will be able to get my flexibility on and almost be as flexible as Meggie.. even the teacher gave her praise :) Till next time, I'm off to my second class!
