Don't let the winter blahs get you down! I hope your stretching and yoga can keep you energized even when the temperatures are sub-zero! It's a tough battle, especially in New England, but we can do it!
Thanks for getting me into Weightlosswars. Keeping track of what I'm eating and knowing that I have to report my calories keeps me disciplined. Exercise is still spotty, but eventually I'll be celebrating a 5-pound weight loss too!
