How are you feeling at this point??<br /><br />Also, this: "so this challenge is not only physical, it's attitude-related as well." Hate to say it, but looks like you're learning from the yoga already. :)hannahjustbreathehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08359736052522439643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3312389532973474939.post-8215806397378508112010-04-16T13:37:38.283-04:002010-04-16T13:37:38.283-04:00thanks for the encouragement! it's getting a l...thanks for the encouragement! it's getting a little easier every day. having a brand new - and WAY more accurate - scale is helping too; the old one fluctuated wildly, which just made me insane. i knew intellectually that it was impossible to gain eight pounds in four hours, but that didn't help the "sticker shock" of seeing the numbers change!<br /><br />glad you're a magnoliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06459330762697628839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3312389532973474939.post-52555029904393426952010-04-16T13:24:47.043-04:002010-04-16T13:24:47.043-04:00I am on a weight loss quest myself - my husband lo...I am on a weight loss quest myself - my husband lost 30 in 2.5 months. I lost... maybe 6 lbs in that same time? It really got to me but I had to relax into it. I know that as I improve my health and knowledge, I have more days that are healthier than not. And as that balance continues to tip, my weight is headed in the right direction. So step off the scale, get your head up, and rock on forAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04616135203265938482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3312389532973474939.post-41916934651146652392010-04-14T17:47:39.044-04:002010-04-14T17:47:39.044-04:00I am the same way.

Never tried yoga, but I've heard good things. <br /><br />Personal best weight loss: Call it 50 or so pounds in 13 weeks all while eating 5,000 calories a day.
