back down to 154 thank god!  i am close to getting my period so that should help too, i think i will be back to 151 soon, with luck.  it will help going back down on the neurontin and i think i am doing ok sleep-wise.  it is stormy and rainy today but i am planning on doing some workout videos at home.  i want to make sure i get enough protein today and i might go to the grocery store and buy some chicken breasts or salmon.  in the meantime i made a veggie soup which is so great on a day like today.  i am going to do some house cleaning which is also good. 

my protein powder should arrive in a couple of days and that will help too :)  i am feeling more optimistic and i can't even describe how good it feels to see the scale moving in the right direction again.  sigh.

i have been in a really good mood lately...  yoga is getting easier, i am getting better at some of my poses like bakasana and handstand, i'm learning how to do a supported headstand so i might be able to do a headstand without the wall soon.

i don't have mirrors in the studio so it's hard to tell if my warriors are getting better but i think the half moon is easier.

i definitely notice as i lose weight balancing poses are easier and i have more energy.  i just have to stay motivated. 

i was feeling sluggish and hungry while on the increased neurontin and ate an ice cream bar but i'm just glad i didn't give up and eat more than that, it was only 280 calories...  i remembered "keep trying" so it could have been worse.
