    I went to a birthday party and did not eat any cake. I went to Subway and didnt get a cookie. I attempted and accomplished five pushups and not the kind on your knees, just toes and hands! THAT was a major achievement LOL!:blushing:

    I know this is going to sound really childish for a 35 year old woman to say but.....
    I'm so glad I didn't eat my feelings when my brother hurt my feelings today.

    Seems like my emotional eating is the number 1 cause for gaining 30lbs in the last year alone and today on day 3 of starting over I managed to just handle being upset and not grabbing a box of cookies or king sized bag of chips. Stupid sounding accomplishment I know but every day counts right?
    Awesome accomplishment actually and really important its far to easy to let people win when they hurt you and much harder to stick to your goals. Way 2 go!

    Two things for me. One, I went to Old Navy for their active wear sale and found that I wear a smaller size than expected :) And 2, I'm proud that my husband and I went to the grocery store and stuck with our healthy food shopping list!

    I'm so glad that today, I finished all my grocery shopping for about 2 weeks, and I not only had a good workout at the gym, but I was able to get in about a half hr at the driving range. It's was a very good and productive day!:happy:

    I had a bit of a slip yesterday some chocolate cake got the better of me and I take full responsibility for it but today I got back on track without guilt or worry and I was under my calories.

    I stuck to my plan of walking and training for my 5K, even After going out to dinner with the hubby.

    I like this. I'm going to post here later on. Right now it's 8:43 AM where I am and I've done nothing. >_>

    I did nothing today. Whoops! Spent the day with my brother and didn't really accomplish anything other than laundry. :I

    I was lazy and did not plan any meals today, but just grazed every time I felt hungry (which seemed like all the time.) I talked myself into good choices each time I wandered into the ktichen, though, and ended up under my calorie goal for the day.

    That's an amazing accomplishment! One that you ought to be proud of yourself for! Personally, I had to go away to a treatment center, which took a lot of patience and practice, to learn the lesson that you're learning right now. Emotional eating was a part of my ED, so I know that is definitely NOT an easy task to learn healthy coping mechanisms, and to actually live them out in the moment.

    Again, Amazing job!!

    I'm excited I was able to sneak in a workout, in the last 30 minutes, before the gym closed!! I made the most of my time, working on "homework" that my trainer gave me.... I felt like this was the best 30 minute workout I've ever had!
