~Consistenly Inconsistent~

Consistently Inconsistent? Huh? Does that even make any sense. Well I'd say it sure does for me...these days at least. I then started to think back and I feel like I can go back as far as my very first year of college oh something like 20 years ago! YIKES! I was very consistent at going to college but I was very inconsistent at sticking to a major. Luckily, I pulled it together and figured things out and finished with a BS in Nutrition. It has been however a very inconsistent career choice and I haven't quite found my niche in this field I love so much. Enough about that...that's a different post altogether, perhaps a different blog even....

I had two very consistent pregnancies with my thyroid being inconsistent for both putting my body into hypothyroid for the entire length of my pregnancies. I was however much more consistent in eating well and working out through the first pregnancy and still gained 55 pounds. The second time around when the weight gain seemed to be a carbon copy each month of the first I quickly realized, it was sort of out of my control and I ate whatever my lil heart desired = 55 pounds again... maybe that's why i'm still trying to lose the baby weight from the second time around!

My triathlon training has been very inconsistent...I just can't seem to fit it in. I mean I could if I could live off of just 4 hours of sleep...can't sorry I tried and it doesn't work! I won't bother with my l.o.n.g list of reasons. One thing I have been consistent at lately is Yoga! It has helped with my core strength so much and my flexibility has improved greatly.

I have been inconsistent in blogging as well and time plays a factor again. Hopefully my schedule will become more consistent so I can find some time for blogging, and training, and living. I have decided to forgo the olympic distance tri I had planned next month and instead do a weekend Level One Yoga Teacher Training!!! Two years ago, it was listed on my 5 year plan of things I'd like to do and if I start now, I may just be able to achieve this goal. I wish I had the time and money to just dive in and go for it full time but I am just thankful for the opportunity to take my yoga to the next level. My original plan was to obtain a Les Mills Body Flow certification but let's just say that things have been very inconsistent with that plan with no fault of my own...all the changes at my gym has influenced this goal. Oh well...luckily my tri buddy had an alternative plan to the triathlon as well and in fact she's the one who influenced my destination/decision and will be joining me in the journey of Yoga Teacher Certification! We all need a lil bit of this and and a lil bit of Nat in our lives! Thanks Bunches!
