Good morning healthies

My scale hasn't budged today, and I'm not worried about it. I know what I need to add in now is more movement, and I took a big step towards that yesterday with joining Curves. The other half of the plan is to get on my Mobia the alternate 3 days....so it'll be Curves M, W and F....Mobia T, Th and Sat....and take Sunday off. I have some wonderful moral support....personally and with all of you in the thread....and I know I can do this.

Rockin...when I was under a lot of stress, my sciatica went absolutely insane...so much that I could barely walk or get up out of a chair. I went to a physical therapist, who did me a world of good. He gave me some wonderful stretches to do. He also said that some people with sciatica issues need to stretch one way....and others need to do the opposite.....so I hesitate to tell you what I was doing in case you're the opposite! It would be great if you could get in to see a physical therapist.

But....just for me....I was doing the cobra (yoga style) stretch....laying on the floor face down, palms next to chest, and stretch up and back to arch. He said others need to do the opposite....laying on their back, putting leg over the other so that right ankle sits on left knee and round up with left hand (or elbow) towards the knee....then reverse.

I wish you luck with this....sciatica hurts like heck!
