I knew someone so in denial, she actually told me the scale LIED (objects don't have that capacity)

@takinitalloff Thank you!! Lol I still remember our three member accountability group that I started two Yeats ago. We were so careful to get in our daily 10 minute walks!! And if I didn't feel like it, I saw you did yours and it was just 10 minutes.....that little group had me walking daily for 10, 15, 20 and finally 25 minutes. I remember our other member loved her walks and before long was regularly walking 20 minutes! This year I'm now seriously considering training for a 10km run. It's been YEARS. ☺️

@spirittrail Funny enough, I just saw someone call her scale a liar on another MFP thread today. I assume it was a joke, but who knows?

I was just thinking about our walking group the other day, too! I wasn't ready for your training schedule at the time, but just so you know, you did inspire me to walk more. Lately I've been focusing on trails that have more elevation changes -- so far, so good! I have no doubt you will do your 10km run when the time is right

I am 68 years old and my resting heart rate now goes as low as 55. My cardiac fitness as rated by fitbit is 32-36, which is well past excellent. I went from 28.4 when I started this latest go round of exercise, (Which was still excellent BTW) to 32-36. I think that is pretty darn good.

@patriciafoley1 I agree that this sounds pretty darn good! A RHR of 55 sounds mighty fine to me Keep up the good work.

Felt really tired today- allowed myself to take the morning really slow. Then pep talked myself into a 40" bike workout before dinner. After dinner I realized I hadn't done my exercises for my 30 day challenge. I was surprised how easily I was able to accomplish my 3 rounds of 5 types of jumping jacks (a total of 300 jacks) plus 5 rounds of 24 elbow to knees (R&L). It felt good to know my body is getting stronger.

I can't even bike around the block in forty seconds.

Looking up insights on my Garmin- I average over 100 floors climbed per week over the past year by walking the rolling hills near our home. Better than 80% of women my age.

Today's victory is that I went on a day trip, indulged reasonably, and didn't stress about it.

I took measurements today. Compared to 4 weeks ago, I've lost a total of 5.5 inches across 10 sites measured

I got my big Apple Fitness award!!! That's 365 days total (but not in a row) of reaching my MOVE, STAND, and EXERCISE goals for the day. I started in late August of 2023.

My NVS is fitting into L clothes again, and being able to shop in superdry for the very first time in my life 😂😅

Garden875

@1191sawk congratulations on your success!
Great transformation! 👏🏻

Keep up the great work with staying healthy!

A NSV for me today was in the area of not participating in internal negative self talk or self hatred.

My husband and I went clothes shopping. I did not like how a lot of the clothes looked or fit me.
In the past, I would become disgusted, buy nothing and sink into depression.

Today though I felt discouraged. My internal self talk is, “this is where I currently am in my journey.”

I am choosing healthier habits and am heading in a direction that will aid me in looking and feeling better in the clothes I like!

I can fit back into 80% of my wardrobe. It will look better in another 5-10 pounds, but I'm no longer stuck wearing stuff I hate.

In an ideal world, I would dress nicely at any size, but my budget doesn't exist in an ideal world.

After having bought new pants last week, this weekend I went through my entire dresser and closet and threw out or donated all of the old clothes that were too big and moved some clothes that had previously been too small for me back into my daily rotation.

@JamieLogical Congratulations 👏🏻

NSV… I’m averaging more exercise minutes this year compared to last year and the year before and the year before that. 🙌 woop woop 🙌

Garden875

@herblovinmom awesome job with your consistency and increase in movement! Keep up the great work 👏🏻

Lojeandres

I had just been walking faster during my "run" portion of walk/run. Today I ran all the run portions!

Garden875

@Lojeandres Fabulous! 🎆

My blood pressure was excellent. I was surprised I got any positive results at the doctor because my eating has been so poor. Also down 4 kg since my last doctors appointment.

patriciafoley1

After four months of low carb dieting, my blood sugar was 133 this am. Not ideal, but a whole lot better than before (70 points or more higher), and without drugs. Hoping in another three month to get it to 100.

Even my NSV is to take a selfie with my daughters and see the dimples on my face again. I am inching closer to my goal and hopefully by the end of this year i will achieve that

@Garden875 Good job! I used to tell myself that I'm a fit/healthy/… person who's currently still hidden inside a slightly less fit/healthy/… person 😉 Thanks for the kudos on my 365 day award!

@1191sawk Your photos are seriously inspiring. I hope you feel incredibly good (and proud of what you have accomplished).
