This is my original weight loss blog. I have been gone a while but need this outlet badly right now.
To catch up, a few months ago I got a new job. Which I love. That is going well. I am sitting in my own office as I speak with a panoramic view of a prairie restoration area and the sun rise on a cold morning. I just ate my breakfast of oatmeal eggs and juice after spending 40 minutes on the elliptical at the Y this morning which is about a block from here.
I am a certified yoga instructor now and am teaching a lot of yoga. I take every class I can for people who need subs. I teach yoga, flow, hot yoga, and yin. I love my students. I am going back for another 300 hours to become a yoga therapist. I am hoping this turns into a lucrative career at some point. I like my new job, but being an accountant is pretty boring and I love being involved with yoga.
Just being at the gym this morning showed me I am needed and this career should be booming soon. I am on the cutting edge of this. My training starts in March and will take a year to complete. I already read everything I can on yoga therapy but I have a lot to learn. This morning I saw a 55 to 60ish year old man running on the treadmill with his knee bandaged up. I imagine he had surgery on it. His body was so stiff and he was running so crooked I bet his hips must be crying. I saw a lot with other people. They are either just lolling along on a piece of equipment or just don't know what they are doing. Just because they go to a gym, doesn't mean they are fit. Most of them could have used a trainer. They were either doing something wrong or totally wasting their time. I do HIIT on the elliptical and check my heart rate all the time and at least break out a sweat.
Anyway it is 76 days until I get married and go to Maui, thus the heavy workouts and clean nutrition. I will come back and talk about diet soon. I need to read about where I have been first.
For now, me

Hello, This is Mary
I am 36 years old with 2 toddlers. My youngest just started day care last week- which still feels a little strange. I haven't had this much time to myself in years. First thing I want to do is lose the extra pounds I put on during the last pregnancy. One of the girls next door has suggested I join her walking group two days a week. After my first pregnancy I lost around 35 pounds using the Herbalife products, but when I called the man that sold them to me three years ago he told me this week he doesn't sell them anymore. He told me to look on the internet. It's disappointing because he was really nice and he called me regularly to make sure I was using their products correctly. It was nice to have someone checking in with me every week to see how I was and it kept me motivated.
I searched on the internet for someone that sells Herbalife in New Jersey. I found many websites but I don't want
just to buy the products, I want to find someone trustworthy that sells the products so I can also meet them and get started again.
Could anybody here recommend someone in New Brunswick?
Thanks, Mary
Hi Mary,
From one mom to another I think I have a solution for you!! I want to lose 40 pounds, and I've lost 28 so far!!! I am feeling fantastic and have more energy than I did when I was in college. I went through three different Herbalife distributors until I found the person I felt really actually cared about me and helped me to start getting results. The bottom line was that I wanted to find somebody that could offer me good prices, but that could also check in with me to make sure I was doing ok.
I used to drive two hours to meet with my first distributor in West Haven, Connecticut. I even brought the girls with me a few times because I couldn't find a babysitter. Today my Herbalife coach does everything over the phone and it is much easier with my busy schedule. You can order Herbalife online on his website, you get the shakes a few days after with FedEx and then you can setup a telephone meeting once a week to make sure you are doing the program right.
His name is Danny Castello and his website is www.goshape.com. The number is (310) 928- 3835. He and his girlfriend Michaela actually do most of the coaching together as a team, but she has an Herbalife site as well: www.puresteps.com. He does most of the motivation on the call and gives you important facts regarding nutrition. He can be a bit tough but he really wants you to get results. She is a bit softer- so they make a good combination. Actually I also recommend joining his newsletter first so you can see the articles on nutrition. They also have videos so you can see who they are before actually calling them. Its nice because they actually use the products too. You can see on their websites.
Hope this helps!

I love yoga, reat stuff, I really like this blog… Just some info for some of the other readers who are serious about losing weight. I used the Fatlossity System and I can definitely recommend it. I lost 18lbs in 6 weeks and am still going strong... fatlossity.com
This may be of interest to readers of this blog since it goes in to detail each week on how to use cutting-edge nutrition, exercise, and healthy lifestyle techniques to lose weight and live a healthier life. It's free so I figured I would share it... you can sign up for the Trim, Tone & Tighten Thursdays newsletter at www.stephencabral.com

My Senior Year, at Arizona State there, my Senior Year, I got Valley Fever!! That is a Disease, you get from even being in Arizona Desert there!!! It is a Dust Sphore, and does NOT affect most People, but it sure did Me though. Out of the 12 People who got it when I did, I am the ONLY One still Living!!!! Yes, Crazy for sure.
I was Told, about this Miracle Coffee, and it is Amazing for sure too. It has a Bunch of these items used in Alternative Medicine too. But if you watch ANY Drug Commercial these Days, you might Consider Alternative Medicine too!! The Comedy Guys, talking about the Commercials on TV, listing the "Side Effects" they call them too, that are LONGER, than the Good things the Drug does too!!! Not for Me anyway. I found a Solution, and it is ALL Natural too!! This Coffee, has these Ancient Mushrooms Extracts in it, and it Tastes Great too. Look below, at One of the Stuff in it too!!
Ganoderma shows promise in reducing cholesterol levels and easing allergy-related inflammation of the airways, according to preliminary evidence from animal-based studies. Here's a look at more of the science behind ganoderma's health-enhancing effects.
1) Cancer and the Immune System
Often used as an immune stimulant by people with cancer, ganoderma has been shown to strengthen immunity as well as combat cancer-cell proliferation. In a 2003 study of 34 people with advanced-stage cancer, for instance, taking ganoderma in supplement form three times daily for 12 weeks led to a significant increase in T-cells (known to play a central role in immune defense).
Lab tests on breast cancer cells, meanwhile, found that combining extracts of ganoderma and green tea heightened the mushroom's ability to slow cancer-cell growth.
2) Antioxidant Benefits
Several small studies have suggested that regular use of ganoderma supplements may increase your levels of antioxidants, compounds thought to protect against disease and aging.
3) Relief of Urinary Tract Symptoms
In a 2008 study of 88 men with urinary tract symptoms, researchers found that ganoderma was significantly superior to placebo in providing symptom relief.
Using Ganoderma For Health
Ganoderma is available in capsules and liquid extracts, both of which can be found at health food stores. You can also take ganoderma in tea or coffee form, but beware that the flavor may be bitter.
