This week's successes: Tracked food everyday and went to yoga class twice
This week's challenges: Plan meals and add 1 cardio workout (in addition to yoga).
I started yoga last year and finally found a physical activity I really love and look forward to, so I'm glad I have kept at it. Now I would like to add cardio, hate the treadmill, my neighborhood is not great for walking, so I'm thinking about what else I could find that I could commit to on a regular basis.

My current weight is 145 pounds.
My goal by the end of the year is to be stabilized at 120 pounds as my max weight.
I seem to lose slow, but once I'm in a good routine it starts to go faster, so hopefully I get the weight off and work at stabilization.
I will check in every Saturday morning after this initial status update.
I look forward to seeing success with everyone2 -
