    @Czvanut I am glad that you are part of this group. You are so active and supportive I feel like you have been here longer than just a few weeks! Thanks for the yoga tips. I actually contacted whoever does her web site to see if they had any tips for my nausea. I really want to do yoga!
    @fieryVixsin. Nice loss!
    @cafelelia Not bad! Moving in the right direction! I also had gained about 15lbs since the spring. My own fault, no injuries, but I do know the frustration of gaining after doing so well. Sounds like January is off to a good start for you!
    @Mrsbell8well Thanks! I may look for it at Michaels.
    @eyesopennow That’s not bad at all. I know you will turn it around
    @cyndiesstuff Thankfully a quiet weekend of taking down the decorations. I remember this summer my weekends being from Thursday to Monday! Pennsylvania Pam is a little better behaved. Thanks for
    Posting about hunger. That’s where I finished in the book. I plan to redo that part and then continue on Monday where I left off before the holidays
    @kirsten11872 No worries, I know things get busy! I just don’t want you to leave us! You have a lot of reasons to keep you motivated. I know you can really do well. Get through the weekend the best you can and then get back at it next week! Hugs!
    @pacsnc6 I have your last weigh in as being 166.6 so you actually are down a little!
    @shirin_k I love how you had a yummy salad and everyone enjoyed it. It seems like you are planning and even able to schedule exercise into your busy day! You should be proud of yourself!
    @coolchick207 amazing loss! That is awesome especially with everything you have going on.
    Nstephenson01 Happy to hear you are having a good week! I know you are enjoying this time with your husband even with his projects. Have a nice weekend!
    @lennoncpa Nice loss!

    Busy busy day back at work. No time for a yoga class. I tried again to do yoga with Adrienne. I don’t know why - but I just can’t get into doing yoga st home. Though the why maybe in the two dogs and one kid on my yoga mat, one kid asking me dozens of questions about Zelda gaming, one dog barking off and on for no apparent reason, and my cell phone texts going off from some leftover work stuff!! I love Adrienne and don’t think the issue is in the presentation. Happily I have time for a yoga class Saturday and Sunday this weekend. Maybe next week I will put all the dogs and kids away and try yoga at home one more time before giving up entirely. The problem with this plan is it tends to get late before I can get them all settled and then I am tired! Lol, but I will try. Anyone with the same issue? I think the motivation is the me time, and lack of distractions, in a class setting. Plus I am not able to give up so easily with an audience. Hope you all are having a great beginning to the weekend. Power in team!

    Not really urgent, more of an FYI-For those who have been including their weekly step counts with their weights. We are not doing the weekly step totals with the weigh ins anymore.

    This has nothing to do with the step challenge, please continue to post your step count daily on the January step challenge page as you have been doing.

    Thank you and good night!

    @phoebe112476 I can totally see how all the distractions can take away from a workout. Especially a workout like yoga where peace and mindfulness are important. Hope you have a great weekend!

    I thought the January step challenge began on the 6th. Am I wrong about that? Can u repost that link. I think I’m lost.
    @cyndiesstuff loved your snackie post. I’m sitting here hungry but it’s bedtime. Thanks for the reminders. No late night snackie for me.

    @sleepymom5
    thanks for setting me straight on the weight. I couldn't find my last weigh in on here so went with my records.
    @cyndiesstuff
    I am trying to increase the water slowly - a cup more each day - I seem to spend most of my time running to the bathroom as it is. Got to give the body time to adjust to this change.

    I went so overboard yesterday. Was fine until the afternoon, but we started drinking and binge watching a show and... ugh.

    So I'm recovering. I have to go to a mentor teacher orientation this morning and do the menu planning and grocery shopping for the week.

    Maybe I should do burpees for pennance....

    How do y'all recover when you go overboard?

    Speaking from experience... tons and tons of water... and fruits/veggies. Get back on track as fast as possible.

    I took yoga classes for years. Especially when first starting out there's no replacement for hands on guidance from an experienced teacher. Since moving I've tried to practice at home but there just isn't the same energy flow. I like Yoga with Adrienne but I just can't get the same vibe at home from her videos. If you enjoy the classes, stick with them. You will likely get more enjoyment from them. Good luck!!!

    yoga-day 4

    yesterday was a mixed bag. I woke up early cleaned out the fridge, started straitening out the kitchen, made a big pot of pasta sauce with garlic, mushrooms and onions, made zoodles and did my yoga. I made a detox smoothie for breakfast with fresh OJ, seaweed, wild blueberries, spirulina, cilantro and barley extract. For lunch I looked at my empty fridge. Chose the 3/4 cup of orca beans and heated those up. In the same little jar after they were heated, I added mom's salsa, green onion, slivered spinach about 3/4 cup, red and orange chopped peppers and 1/4 avocado cubed. I shook the jar and thoroughly enjoyed it. The problem was the portion size. An hour later I was hungry again. Had an organic pink lady apple, 2 dates and almonds. At 4:30 I had raw pea pods and oil free hummus. It wasn't much but it killed my appetite. I was so disappointed cuz I was really looking forward to my favorite dinner. I stopped at the store on my way home from work and picked up a few groceries including some brown rice vegetable vegan sushi. Got home at 7:30 and sadly was still not hungry even though I really wanted that pasta. So we ate the "sushi" instead. Very satisfying and tasty but again I was hungry at 9:30pm. We were in the middle of playing a very competitive game of Fairynopoly with Wifey, Skylynn (9yr old granddaughter) and my mom. Now it was too late to eat. I think I was mentally really wanting that pasta and it made me antsy. I ready Cyndies message @cyndiessstuff and decided not to eat. It was the right decision but it was a weird food/hungry day. I normally eat a lot more at meals but both lunch and dinner were a little too light.
    But that was yesterday. Today is a very exciting new day!
    Have a great weekend everyone and welcome newbies!!!
