bmkxox

Name something you recently have accomplished that is fitness/healthy eating related.


i'm day 12 no pop! ha may not seem like much but i've been drinking pop for years (diet & Regular) so this is a big step for me. hopefully i can completely stop drinking pop forever.


what about you??

Had a few miles of my run under 10min/mi this morning. Oh, and that I can run several miles - never could until last year. Now, trying to work on making my 1/2 marathon faster. Crazy.

Fit in to a Uk size 10 pair of shorts I was really surprised because they looked so small on the hanger and I was just like no way would I fit into that... hard to adjust to a lower weight xD I totally bought them since I never ever wore shorts for fear of fat legs.

This may not be a big deal for most, but yesterday I jogged for 2.5 minutes non-stop!

That is a big deal! You should be very proud of yourself. Keep at it!

Many of us can definitely relate to that. Yes, it's a major accomplishment.

Yesterday I walked for 60 minutes at a very fast pace. I don't know that I will ever be able to run, but my next goal is to be able to jog a little. I will keep at it until I can jog all the way to the end of my block - and then it will be to make it around the block! Not much for most, but for me it will be a great accomplishment.

I recently re-did a hike I did two years ago. Two years ago I struggled really hard to make it to the top. This time, I made it to the top quickly and easily, then explored two more viewpoints (about an extra 45 minutes) before heading back down. That was pretty satisfying.

Also, when shopping last night, I had to grab pants a size down from what I was expecting!

My four year old told me that I looked smaller this week!!

1daylate1dollarshort

I've been eating way more healthy foods to replace all the crap I ate before. I never went this long with so many fruits and veggies! I didn't think I could do that, not even for 19 days, hahaha. Also- I kinda LIKE it and rarely crave all the junk I used to eat.

Exercising until I'm dripping sweat and being consistent with it for the past month.

It's early on, but I'm pretty proud of those things at this point! I want to have a different lifestyle this time. Not a quick diet to look good for "_____."

My mindset is pretty good this time!

Now that I read the question, nothing.

I stopped smoking 10 days ago! And I attended all 3 of my Spin classes this week...I usually skip one! :drinker:

ChristinWrites

Kind of silly, but a couple of months ago I struggled lifting up and carrying around my 5 year old son - he's about 40 pounds. His dad always lifts him up and gives him hugs and they play actively like that. Now I can lift him up over my head - a few times lol - thanks to strength training and daily exercise I can also sprint up stairs now and not want to die so - yeah it's the little things

I'm proud that even though I don't have people in my life who want to work out with me, that I still go to the gym and swing kettlebells like it's my job (I love my friends and family but it gets frustrating continually asking if they want to go with me so I've stopped and now I like going by myself bc I don't have to worry about anyone else's pace but my own)

Except my sister- she's ALWAYS down to do something like play tennis or go rollerblading but she lives 2 hours outside of town so those days are far and few depending on the season.

Agree with the ME time, you earned it! Good health to you!

I'm proud of myself as now I walk 8 mile a day on my treadmill, and when I started it was hard to do the 5 mile a day that I was told to do. Now I can do the five mile while reading mfp on iPad - it passes the time so quickly.
