    Glutes are hard for me too. I find that certain yoga poses that are thought of more for the hip really get those glutes.
    I’m sure there are lots of YouTube videos so I won’t attempt a step by step guide😂 but good form and tiny tweaks are super important.

    Pigeon- but it’s too intense for my tight hips

    classic supine twist- extending top leg

    Prone figure four- I add just the slightest side to side hip rocking movement.

    Best advice, find a yoga instructor you like (they are NOT all the same). I LOVE mine- she starts every class with- “what would anyone like to work on?”

    3/03 - 159.5
    3/04 - 161.1 - Bouncy bouncy. Lots of sodium, lots of movement. I was over calories (exercise included) by 92 on MFP and 132 on Fitbit. Stressful day as it was BF's mom's birthday and she passed Oct '21. We went out for Guinness on tap for her birthday (her fave) after I got back from the vet. And that vet visit was unexpected to get my poor Smoke's face cut open to remove an abscess that kept getting infected and causing his eye to squint from swelling. Then dinner at Fam's. Big breakfast this morning in hopes of holding off eating until dinner time, which I'm unsure of plans at this point. Their septic system is all messed up so they're working on that today and we're headed to help here shortly. Hopefully lots of movement on my end to make up for some things.

    Previous Day's Comments
    3/03 - I was right, body was playing tricks and didn't want to show 150s last round. Hectic day. BigBro's birthday dinner (stromboli) and "cake" (chocolate zucchini bread and he opted for Andes mint melted chocolate glaze vs the lemon glaze from last year). Then BF found 3 beautiful "family" vehicles (3 row seating) at our local dealership on the used lot. He ended up getting approved and bought one (his credit was wrecked from his ex wife so I've been helping him and teaching him how to rebuild it slowly so this is a HUGE deal to get approved 100% by himself). Another nasty storm blew through right before dinner. Luckily the worst of it (hail and super high winds) just barely missed us. No walk with pups as we still had rain and horrible (40-60mph gusts) wind. Hoping better for today. Will need to go into town after work so hoping dinner is early enough to walk the pups after. About to knock out today's workout. I almost skipped it and slept in as my alarm woke me mid-dream. I didn't have the patience to set a midpoint alarm between my normal and my "you're late for work" alarm but I ended up waking up fully between my snoozed alarm and my bladder haha! I'm excited to sleep in tomorrow, though.

    @SheilaBoneham Thanks for your reply. I'm so energized and in the zone right now that I feel like I can't miss the opportunity to share with people if I think it can help. Being able to share and get tips in this thread is sparing everyone in my social life from having to hear about my weight and fitness goals and habits. Please take it as a compliment that I was way off with your assumed age :) That's awful that following professionals' advice did so much harm to your body. Learning that they did that to you and from what I've been reading in this thread from others' dietician advice, I'm going to be a much stronger self-advocate when the professionals give instructions that contradict my instincts and knowledge about myself.

    @shmmm3 and @Sheilaboneham Yes Yes Yes. The professionals are not always right! The dietician's can be WAY OFF. It is definitely not a one-size-fits all !!! There is age, hormones (which they have not even tested), family history, inflammation levels (which they have not tested) and so much more that influence their advice. We must listen to our own bodies just as Sheila has said. Their advice can work for some but not for all.......

    That sounds like it would be nice. The last 3 instructors I had were the opposite of relaxing and it seemed like a chore for them to be teaching (gym included classes). Since the beginning of Covid I've been solo at home with all exercise. I'd like to go to a yoga studio if I can get up the courage. That's a goal to work towards.
