I am in again!!

Sending healing prayers!

Checking in!

I am in! I need to get back on track. I’ve been on chemo since early June and my last infusion is August 5th. I gained about 10 lbs during this time period - funny how simple carbs go down so well. But soon I need to get serious and start eating healthy and lose some weight! One I get over the 1st week after chemo I will…

Today is day 1!! Let’s get detoxed off sugar!!

Great job! The first few days are the hardest then it gets easy! Amazing all the hidden sugars out there plus the natural sugars (fruit). Natural sugars are ok to eat as they are balanced out with fiber but still need to be mindful and not rely on them because you are craving sugar 😀 a great learning experience!!

I am in, I am going to start on January 1 but already working to cut down on sugar. I have also done this in the past and a couple of Whole30‘s and always feel so much better afterwards!!

I do a lot of yoga online (you tube) and have my favorites! When we moved just over a year ago I kinda stopped and never really started up again.

I am not seeing the invite either!

I am in! My name is Carla and I would like to lose some COVID pounds 🤭 and continue to develop a healthy relationship with food. A struggle for most of us! I would also like to get back to doing yoga again. Thanks for starting this challenge!

I have also experienced the same thing. Sugar is truly a drug and makes you crave it more and more and more. Don't forget to watch out for hidden sugars, it's important to read those food labels and look for added sugar!

Hello!! Sorry for joining and finally posting. Was going to post on Monday and next thing you know it's Thursday :) I'm Carla and looking forward to getting to know you all. I was doing so great for the last few years. I followed low carb and switched over to mostly paleo and was able to maintain my weight for a few years.…

Happy Thursday to everyone! I took today off to have an extra long weekend. I have been working in the dining room since March but I packed everything up and put it in a corner for the long weekend so my house looks somewhat normal - just don’t look over in that corner okay? Yesterday overall was a good day - finished work…

Hi everyone - just found your thread. I'm Carla in MN and I'd love to join your little group. I'm 55 and since last fall have been gaining a bit of weight and have been pretty much unmotivated to lose it. I really need to...it's July after all and my pants are tight. I don't weight in but I use clothes as my measure of…

Sorry I have been MIA - I twisted my knee a couple of days ago so haven’t been doing any yoga but it is finally feeling better - I think I will take one extra day off and start back up tomorrow!

Days 6 and 7 completed. Yesterday was short as I was running out of time, but I did some forward folds which always help my poor hamstrings!

Day 4 done of "Home", 5 days straight for me. I have already started to notice my forward folds are easier...hamstrings are just starting to let go!

My cat just loves when I do yoga - especially cat/cow. It's her chance to under me and rub against my arms and legs. Too cute!! :)

Day 2 of FWFG2020 done yesterday and will be completing day 3 this morning!!

Amazing how yoga just slows us down in a good way!

Day 1 of the video series done! Did anyone notice Benji dreaming - his back legs were twitching. TOO CUTE!!! My legs are SO tight but they will slowly loosen up over the next few days.

Day 1 completed - I did an easier one (Yoga for Joy) to start my month off. I moved back in October and have only done yoga maybe 2 times. It will be interesting to see how long it takes for my muscles to loosen up :)

Oh I am in! She has a new 30 day series starting today!!

Happy October (almost!) I am on the cheer squad this month as we are MOVING but I will continue to check in as often as I can and cheer you all on! Closing isn’t until October 22nd, so I will likely go “dark” that week. A little bit about me: I work full time in the food industry - I plan production based on forecasts from…

Friday WI PW: 147 CW: 147 I think my body likes this weight!

Happy Wednesday!! Food - pretty good yesterday almost on plan (amazing!) Water - great! Exercise - great! I had a pretty bad headache yesterday afternoon - more sinus type headache in the forehead and I have it again this morning so I'm dosed up on OTC drugs :) I think it was the dairy from our son's bday party on Sunday.…

Monday Check in: Food - pretty darn good Water - great Exercise - plenty but my fit bit died just after noon (I forgot to charge it Sunday night) Packed 3 boxes last night - I'm working in the basement and hubs is working in our living room. We've decided to do the move ourselves...we're going to rent two storage units a…
