I can wear a 16 now and I was in 18's!
Me, too! Started at a tight 22!0 -
I can do ONE full push up. Not much to most people, but a LOT for me. lol Also I can fit into 18's which I haven't be able to do since I was about 21 (I'm 28 now).0

For the first time yesterday I actually jogged for ten minutes without having to do any 30 second walking breaks, and today I did 12 REAL pushups, then had to do my second set on my knees. That's okay though, because the most I could do a month or two ago was like three and that killed my arms. Also over the course of the month I became able to do my bicycle crunches without a break before the end.
Good job everyone! ANY improvement is GOOD improvement!

Work out to P90X twice per day. It's a struggle, but I'm getting better.0

Time to start this thread again! So, this isn't from 30 days ago, but today I literally had 10 minutes to do something in the work out room before my meeting (I work part time at our Y), so I decided to hop on the stair machine. That is the hardest machine for me. When I first started to work out, I could only get 4 minutes or so at the slowest rate. Today, I did my 10 minutes at the hardest I've done yet (I do get on this for 10-15 minutes after running 2-3 times a week). Not a huge victory, but it does tell me how far I've come and I could have gone for longer if I had time. So, I do feel good about that.
What about you? What are you able to do now that you couldn't 30, 60 or longer ago?0 -
Use the last notch on my belt.0
-
I can do my 60 minutes vinyasa yoga class without having to recover in child's pose half way through0
-
I can jog a lot longer now without stopping or my ankles or shins hurting. Yay0

I can wear two pairs of jeans, one a little smaller than the other, that I couldn't wear earlier in the Summer. I was able to wear one for the first time just this week.
I can move 1000-2000 pounds of freight in 40-80 pound increments several times per day/week (depending on the work) without ever getting winded or tired.
I can feel a couple of muscles that I couldn't before and I can feel my ischial tuberosities (the bones I sit on - I had to look it up because I didn't know I had them). Definitely no one else can see them, but I can tell they're there. lol
I can see a difference in the size of my butt and thighs, my stomach, and my arms.0 -
30 days ago I could barely walk 15 minutes, now I'm up to 26 minutes a day!
( and I don't feel like I'm gonna have a stroke after I'm done! ) Yaaaay! :happy:

10 push ups - full to the ground, no knees. I have T25 to thank for that.
I couldn't even do 1 30 days ago.0 -
Confidently purchase size 14 dresses from the secondhand shop knowing that I'll eventually be able to wear them. And then manage to fit into 2 out of 4 of them even though the fit's not correct yet!0

I gave up Diet Coke
I started running again
I eat normal portions
I have been choosing fruit salad instead of brownies, ice cream or cookies
I wore a shirt that was too small
I haven't had fastfood in 2 months
I can say I'm beautiful
All things my husband just pointed out to me0 -
20 push ups. (A while ago I couldn't do even one!) Run for 18 minutes... so much stuff I can't even remember it all!0
-
I can do Zumba (sort of, but I'm trying!)
I can fit size small shirts and perhaps size 6 pants (haven't tested the theory yet, but my size 8s are kind of floppy now)
I discovered I can make a good cheesecake (using a pie crust, not a spring form pan). Kinda the opposite of a weight loss, healthy eating thing, but I never really made them before because they usually ended up too flat, so yay!0 -
Say that I ran for 52 minutes straight.
Run for at least 30 minutes straight during each run.
Interval training (30 seconds of 5-7+ mph running/30 seconds of 4.5-5 mph running/30 seconds of walking) for 30 minutes.0 -

Those are great accomplishments.I especially like the normal portions and choosing fruit salad over junk food.
