Baddha Utthita Parsvakonasana!

Don't ask me how, but in yoga on Sunday, I managed to not only twist my bod into this pose (yikes!) but then managed to stand up while still bound up, all pretzel-like. (While keeping my arms clasped under my yoni, I moved the extended leg forwards towards the bent one - picture me now in a crazy, about-to-sit-on-the-toilet pose - then I slowly stood up on one leg. So in this pic, I'd be standing on my left leg.)

Then my upper back started shrieking and I crumbled to my sticky mat to stifle the screams. Advil today was a must. But I'm proud! Namaste.

Good heavens, girl! I can't believe you stood up out of side angle pose! Way to go!! Too bad you didn't get a pic... Now you'll just have to do it again;)

That is quite impressive. I'm nowhere near there yet...
Of course, right about now, my teacher would give you a very long lecture about ego, and pride, and so on :)

Al, ýour weight 10 yrs ago (personal comments-11/14/07)compared to today, man, what a difference; from a cute butterball to absolutely marvelous! I'm suprised no one mentioned it on-air! You ROCK!
