    Kidding, just to lighten my mood: I have been stretching myself thin lately so I just started Yoga to help me unwind. I think this will improve my outlook greatly. #yoga #pampermyself #unwind

    Just awesome work, Mari! I feel like I keep repeating myself with you....you are doing such a wonderful job!!

    Thank you. February hasn’t been the best month but I’m glad it moved in the right direction even if it was a small change. I hope I have a better month in March both on weight loss and my depression. I miss being more active in the group x

    @Gwenfromnyc, I think yoga will be great to help you unwind!! Even just five or ten minutes of quiet meditation if that's all the time you had. Better to stretch yourself with yoga positions than to just stretch yourself thin!! My personal favourite and one I do every night is the reclining goddess! One I do far too often is the downward facing cake, or a version of it!!

    Went out to dinner with friends this evening. I'm glad that I was careful all day so that I could enjoy it. My calories were close but still under for the day. The best part is that I have plenty of wonderful leftovers to enjoy tomorrow. :)

    @Gwenfromnyc that was funny! If only downward facing cake was a real pose haha! I agree yoga is great for stress, and a great choice for you right now.

    Hi all. Well we are back from our weekend away. I tried to do well with my food, and I guess the scales will tell all tomorrow morning. 8 hours in the car on both Friday and Sunday meant for very little steps and no exercise, but tomorrow is the beginning of another week.
    I am looking forward to the step challenge this week and will charge my fitbit right now! :wink:

    The results for February Week #3 have been posted. The top three Big Butts are @primekayprime - 1.29% lost, @mari_moulin - 1.25% lost, and @katevt78 - 0.73% lost. Nice work ladies. Again, no inroads with the group at large.

    What a great example of "how to do Saturday night dinner with friends and still be under your calorie goal". Thanks so much for sharing, and well done!!

    Nice loss!! Maybe February wasn't what you hoped for, in the loss department, but you are still headed in the right direction. Remember, it's a marathon, not a sprint!

    Great attitude about the start of a new week and new possibilities. Did you enjoy your weekend getaway?

    I am starting to feel rejuvenated. Today felt like an early spring day...breezy, sunny and 8 degrees C (46 degrees F). My husband and I actually went for a short walk and then did a couple of errands. The last time we went for a walk was when we were in Vegas in the middle of January! I think I may actually get three yes's today!!
