Yoga re-cap

I went!  I've been trying to surround myself with positive people and positive infulenencsForty bucks for a month of unlimited yoga and a push from a friend finally got me to go.

I actually enjoyed it.  Having never done it before, except for a intro class 20 years ago, I did not feel like a moron and there were all shapes, sizes and ages of people there.  The down side was the breathing.....you know how I feel about that.  As a person who has misophonia it was a test of will to stay through the class with an older gentleman breathing like a hippo but I survived, and felt taller and calmerGoing back tomorrow!  I highly recommend it.

This renewal of dedication has been great - I'm getting support from all over the place - I've got my girl Lorie over at I Just Ate My Willpower to text me and keep me accountable and there seems to be a lot of bloggers re-committing during the holidays - how gangsta is that!  Look at us picking the hardest time of year to get this done!  **pat on back and take a bow**
And I'm getting a lot of support at the office - my business partner has got a group of guys that started a work out group, and one of my best friends - who works in the office is on a healthy lifestyle push - so we call each other out if we are seen with "crap food".

Also I have added in fish and eggs to my diet...the extra protein seems to be helping keep me full.

Yesterday I had  a stare down with a pumpkin pie - made by one of my coworkers who is a pastry chef....I won.  
 I've been using Tea to combat cravings and last night I was designated driver so I did not drink - This is a new  thing for me - I drank two glasses of water and had a blast! 

Here's to continued momentum!    

This was my day yesterday:
Yoga
Half protein shake
Half cup tuna salad
Lots of tea
Half of a pear - go me with the fruit!
Half of a cup of low fat cottage cheese
30 min run on dreadmill + abs  
Taco Bell (Did not feel one bit bad) - 
   - Cheesy fiesta potatoes (290c 4g p) 
   - Bean burrito (370c and 13g p)
Bowling

  3. I also have misophonia and I dont think I could have done it, well maybe, for me hearing people eat is the worst thing ever in the world and breathing while they eat makes me want to go on a killing spree... but way to go hanging in there and not tell them all that they are hippos who should breath thru their noses lol
