I'm slowly learning that while I need to have the proper form for all yoga poses, just because I turn my hands or feet out a little doesn't mean I'm doing it wrong. Also, I need to get an ankle brace for my right ankle. That sucker starts to hurt after a 5 minute jog, and I have a 3k coming up in two months. >_< Maybe it's my shoes...

Anyone have any recipes that -won't- cause a bloat-a-thon to happen in my midsection? No matter what I eat, my belly bloats out until I look like I'm three months pregnant, which I'm not. >_>

BIKINIS 2012 FTW!
- von Hottie v. You might just be inadvertently eating the wrong foods, or maybe a too-large portion. There's a ton of articles about foods that cause bloating (just Google it). I think broccoli and beans are big offenders. I've also read that if you're consistently bloating, it could be a sign of food allergy. 1 year ago
- von Hottie v. Oh, and watch your ankle! Maybe some ankle strengthening exercises are in order. And definitely new shoes. 1 year ago

- Liz K. Verne, start eating 18 ALMONDS daily: whether by the handful or use either real oatmeal or even the packets, put approx. 18 almonds, dried cherries or dried cranberries; one-half banana and some diced apples (or whatever fruit you like) put 1/2 cup water into oatmeal mixture, microwave for 2 minutes;
  then either low fat milk or almond milk or even cranberry juice; eat this for about a week you will lose the bloat....also regarding your ankle start eating pineapple (can be out of the can) for about a week; mix it in with oatmeal or low fat (no sugar) yogurt. You will start to notice a change but too much pineapple esp. fresh can create ulcers in your mouth so you have to decide what is the right amount for your needs. If you are bloating watch your intake on salt and sugar(s)...so plain almonds if too crunchy for you soak them in water. Eat enough almonds, no more than 18 per day and you will feel like
  you are getting an hour glass figure again. Good Luck with the race! 1 year ago
- Verne E. I've started eating almonds, but only about 16. Totally doing this. I try not to consume a lot of salt, but, I admit that I do let my sweet tooth get the best of me. >_> Thank you both for the advice!! 1 year ago
- Liz K. Hi Verne also wanted to say you should start drinking 8 to 10 glasses of water daily; water flushes out the toxins in the body and salt and sugar are the main toxins so if you don't like oatmeal do the almonds and drink either spring or mineral water at least 64 oz per day to start and you will notice a change in your body. Try the goal of drinking water and then try the goal of giving up sugar; go slowly on the sugar but keep cutting back and the bloating will ease up. You have a wonderful day tomorrow and enjoy those almonds. :-) 1 year ago

Slacked off big time this weekend. I did my yoga poses throughout the day instead of during one block of time. I did manage to help cook a rather tasty Mothers Day dinner. Oh well, back to the grind. Happy Monday, everyone!

- Jennifer K. I think it is great to spread out the yoga throughout the day... 1 year ago
- Verne E. It was nice. Whenever I felt any tension anywhere, I just stopped and did a pose. I'm coring strawberries, and I'm standing in a half warrior pose :) 1 year ago
