I'm in my 30s but my goal is the same now as it was then--140ish. I'm 5'5".

Two eggs scrambled with some kind of veg (red pepper, mushroom, onion, spinach...) and some grated parmesan. Sometimes taco seasoning, sometimes vadouvan (Indian) seasoning. Topped with salsa or once in a while, half an avocado. Delicious.

No reason to wear a sports bra if you're wearing a regular bra underneath. Get a GOOD sports bra. Sounds like Enell is good for the well-endowed. For the rest of us...well, I found a Champion bra at Target that works well for me. Keep shopping and trying things on til you find one that works.

Get a GOOD sports bra. I wince for you!

Absolutely this ^^^^ Stand up for yourself.

Make your own. You have control over portions of ingredients AND you can make whatever toppings combos you want.

Giving me dressing with salad instead of salad with dressing. Bland anything. There are a million spices out there, use some!

When your hand is shaking too hard to pour another cup w/o spilling...then it's time to stop.

Yoga helps to get rid of stress and stretches you out. I love it. I'd go to class every day if I could afford it. Helps with flexibility, balance, focus, alignment. Once you are aware of how your posture/alignment should be you might find yourself correcting it outside of class--I know I did. It's a good thing. :wink:

You look great!

When I got to my heaviest, I started walking for an hour every day. Just around the neighborhood, up one street, down the next.

Congrats! Way to take charge of your life. :happy:

Well, a good instructor should offer modifications to each pose so that everyone can do them to the extent they are able. Don't be discouraged. Yoga gets easier the more you do it, not the skinnier you are. I mean, there are plenty of skinny people who are not terribly flexible or who fall down when they balance on one…

Were you in a beginning level class?

Usually somewhere in between 10-14 mph on the trail through the city. Upper end 523 cals/hr. Lower end just under 400 cals/hr 144# 5'5"

Van Gogh and Miro.

I love the frozen chicken verde burritos. Top one with salsa, microwave it and you've got a delicious lunch. :flowerforyou:

That is AWESOME. Great NSV!

Put whatever spice you want (chili powder, cayenne, cumin, taco seasoning, whatever!) on popcorn. ETA: Oooh, or on kale chips! I love kale chips with curry. Yummmm!

Rocky ROAD!

Congrats!

Smoothies are good, too, if you can keep fruit (either fresh or frozen) on hand. 1C milk of your choice fruit of your choice maybe peanut butter maybe protein powder Whatever you want, experiment and have fun!
