We only have three weeks left.
Amazing race week 6
This week we are headed off to India. We have 3904 miles to go this week.
We have put teams 4 and ten together and 7 and nine. Every one else remains the same, I did not want to split any team up and the miles will be based on 10 or more players.
This week is about relaxation . Road block one is relaxation yoga. We will be doing one video every week til end of challenge. This is worth 25 points.

Roadblock two is a sleep exercise . You only need to do this once but feel free anytime you need to relax this week. If you are like me you go to bed after a long day and think of your day and what you need to do tommorow. Relaxation and sleep is so important to weight loss. This is also worth 25 points.

Extra credit. Nutritional is about spices. I want you to try one new spice this week versus salt. It can be Indian like curry or something else. We will have a post and let us know what and how you used it. 10 pts

Accountability
For those that took measurements or pics retake those measurements and see how you improved. Those that did the preassessment challenge time to do a re evaluation and let us know how you did or need to improve. 10 pts

    I did the sleep video last night because it just sounded like a great way to start the week. I got to the last chakra but I think I fell asleep before the video ended. I'll definitely be doing it again this week - I am super busy getting my students ready for state testing and the stress is starting to hit so yoga and meditation are coming at the perfect time!

    I took my measurements before this started, but since I can't run, do push-ups or squats right now, I'm going to use those instead of the pre-assessment test. Since starting this round I've lost another inch from my bust, two inches from my waist, 1.5 inches from my hips, 1 inch from my belly, and just half an inch from my thigh.

    @Melodieccurn I didn't see a discussion for the nutrition this week. Are you going to be starting one or do we just post here?

    Where would you like us to update this information? I was unable to do the pre-assessment test, but I did take before pictures.

    I have lost three inches from my waist and 2.5 from my hips. I took a photo at the beginning, and will be taking another one this week. Too busy today to go and find the same or similar clothes and do it, but will definitely do it. I feel different, so I hope I look different also.

    I took my measurements . I lost 1 inch from my hips 1/5 inch from my belly, 1.5 inches from thighs and 1 inch from waist. The scale isn't going down much, but my clothes are fitting loser.

    Yoga, relaxation n spices done. Measurements n weight back where I started challenge, after girls weekend. Understand consequences of my choices better: starting to understand which foods react poorly with me etc. My before from 6 mths ago is a stark contrast to anytime this year. Healthier, even if measures of success don't show that.
