    Lost 1.5lbs this week, somehow :-) I'm ready for being back at work (well, not really!) and getting into a routine again.

    I'm aiming to get back into regular yoga workouts too. Not sure how I'm going to balance daily exercise tbh. I might try daily yoga, then either a 5k run (3 per week) or a 30min strength workout and see how that goes! About an hour a day to stay fit and get stronger.

    We're on hols at the end of Sep so I'd like to drop some weight by then.

    +3 this week - no surprise at all as I've started eating again and have had bread this weekend which always bloats me out! 🙄
