    Daily check in
    I just got back on my diet about a week, so I haven't started logging yet. I do plan to start logging all food within the next week. Right now, I'm focused on staying low carb and eating healthier. Tomorrow I start my exercise. I want to ease back into things. I really excited to be a part of the biggest loser again.

    Good quote @tigale

    No gain is a loss! Sounds kind of like denial. Actually I did go up a little at the beginning of the week and then balanced it out at the end. Looking forward to a big change in my exercise routine beginning today. Mix things up and start again. Good luck teammates!

    If anyone has any tips on some yoga dvds let me know. Thinking about adding that to my new weight lifting routine. Comments are welcome!

    It's really tough. I really like it though - I can't complete all the moves so I modify where I need to but I am definitely getting stronger. I found the DVD at a yard sale and bought it with a bunch of others for $1 so I think I'm getting my money's worth out of it. I'm currently on Day 12. I recommended it to a friend and we found another at a yard sale today!

    I'm happy with my weight loss this week :) I'm using a sliding scale and I'm trying to be as accurate as possible, but I'm not quite sure how to write it out.

    @JLPadron86 It went in as 224.8..it rounds off in the spreadsheet.
    Awesome loss though!!
