Sugar Withdrawal

Show Notes: News and Notes - Ravelry group approaching a membership goal. When we reach my goal of 100 members, we will have a prize giveaway to a randomly selected member of the group. Not sure yet what the prize might be. Shout out to Virge! Finished Objects -  Slanted Vineyard socks, the Slant pattern by Hunter Hammersen, knit in CloudLover Yarn in the Haunted Vineyard colorway, for the KnitGirllls SAL/KAL, that ends in February. Works in Progress - Wisteria Shawl Collar Pullover, pattern by Lion Brand yarn, knit out of an unknown yarn in a rainbowish colorway, using size 8 circular needles. (Sorry, Lion Brand, I did not use the recommended yarn. I might use Lion Brand Amazing for a future version of this sweater.) Hogwarts Express Waves Socks Hermione's Quidditch socks are on hold until I get a few other things off the needles. Will try to get them done for Studentknits Statistics KAL. New/Upcoming: Straun Take 2 for my brother out of Cascade Eco Alpaca Spiderman Hat for the baby nephew Mittens for Me KAL with the KnitGirllls Baby Projects for 3 friends/coworkers Spinning -  Actually seeing improvement. Using Wysteria Fiber, Corriedale, in the Blue-Green colorway. Bought gorgeous fiber from Dana (craftygirl83) at Unwind Yarn Company in Abalone and Luckiest. Fitness -  Biggest Loser Contest: Weigh-in on Tuesday - 195 lbs (13.9285 stone for those "across the pond"). Gave us a food/exercise journal and a water bottle. Took a before picture. First workout???? Not sure what happened. Did yoga again on Tuesday - TOUGH! Nutrition - Still fighting with sugar intake. Feel like I am having sugar withdrawal symptoms. Need to eat more veggies and less "bad" carbs Great suggestion from droppingneedles on Ravelry of drinking a glass of hot tea before bed for those nighttime cravings.
