Great job getting something DONE while also exercising, Nancy. It's always great to accomplish two things at once.
Kathryn, I'm glad you are able to have your fav breakfast on the ship. You have learned that it's good for you (of course it seems to be an opposite thing for me and I don't react as well to wheat). I guess you are just not able to weigh first thing in the a.m.? Seems like you are opening yourself to disappointment if weighing after both water and exercise, but if the number makes you happy, maybe you will be even more pleased when you are back home with your own scale. Just keep doing a thing and you'll be less winded doing it.
Lynlee, you are so modest. Here you are, doing so well in yoga with only a few (difficult sounding) things you can't do, plus you only weigh about 115 pounds. You are doing GREAT. Tip from Dr Oz program on sleep was to allow only soft music to play for the 45 mins before bed as a kind of background sound, not tv or puter.
I had trouble getting out of bed yesterday morning (lower back pain) and was downright amused if not embarrassed to admit it to HRH. But I went back to T-Tapp rather than other exercise, with all it's spine-lengthening and stretching yesterday, and I got out of bed per usual today.
Good foods lately - salads, many-veggie-omelets (so much the omelet can hardly hold together!), adding mango to smoothies, spinich with beans for one-person lunches. Purchased Hardee's Sweet Potato Fries and truly enjoyed them - they cost a little more, of course, but a better choice than 90 percent of fast-food ideas.
I am optimistic, which is odd since I am over the weight that is my absolute stop-gap never-cross-that-line weight. Somehow I just know it will be fine. HRH makes me feel young lately, bless his heart. Trying to keep the continued concerns over my ddad, all my children's needs, etc., on a "back burner" that does not conflict with my day-to-day calm.
