Still Truckin'

Well we are entering week 4 I have lost 8 lbs. Which isn't too bad but I was hoping for more. This past week put me back a little with all 3 kids being sick at the same time the stress level was unbelievable really they are lucky I didn't eat them since I wanted to eat everything in sight. I controlled myself and didn't so I am at 0 for the week no loss no gain. Which then brought me to the issue of emotional eating and how many times I soothed myself with food and didn't even think about it. But that is a subject that I could spend a whole book on so I won't bore you with the details. Some tricks that are working for me are drinking a bottle of water when I feel that urge to snack then if I'm still hungry after that I will grab something little.
I do have a problem that I must admit to you though....I am addicted to YOGA!!! Wow I feel so great afterwards! I find myself trying to make sure I have enough time each morning to get to the gym at 8:45 which means me getting up early and getting ready before the kids. The day I realized it was a problems was when I went on a Saturday morning before everyone was out of bed. So here I am in front of all the world. Hi my name is Rhi and I'm a yoga addict LOL My favorite is the last 10 min of relaxation and focusing all the energy on the person that I have always pushed to the side and forgot about...myself. And who knew those comfy "yoga" pants that I always bummed around the house in actually had a purpose in their life ;)
So as we embark on the last 2 weeks of this weight loss adventure I find myself sad that the gym won't be part of our lives anymore. I might have yoga with drawls!! But the next few weeks all my energy will be used for weight loss. And while I'm sure our team won't win because not everyone is as excited about this competition But the trip has been sooo fun . It's made me realize that the unhealthy lifestlye we were living is a thing of the past. Bill has lost 20lbs!!!! So proud of him!!!
The producers from The Biggest Loser will be at our gym sometime soon so look for me on the big screen haha!! And if anyone wants an autograph just let me know :)
