So Girlfriend spends most of her time in her room. This is fine, but it makes it hard to clean. So since she isn't home today (May come home tomorrow, maybe Sunday) I took everything out of her room, and swept and polished and scrubbed and dusted and new sheets on the bed and all.
I'm sore around the lower back and rear, from lifting stubborn things. But I'm not exhausted. And I bet the soreness will be gone if I sit down and have dinner. THAT's a nice change.22 -
I got home tonight and fancied something to eat, not hungry, just felt like eating something....
Well instead of the tempting chocolate biscuits I grabbed a tomato to munch on.....Darn nice it was too.24 -
My dog groomer greeted me with "You've lost weight!" I thanked her, and she came back with "No! You've REALLY lost weight!" I laughed. I was so happy to hear it. Last time I saw her 2 months ago.18

I'm wearing knee high boots. I haven't owned any in ages. Ever? Either way my calves were too fat for even wide calf boots. Since I bought these off Amazon I ordered wide calf to be safe and they not just fit, they have loads of room to spare. I'm doing my happy dance because while I hit my goal weight I have not hit my goal body and I've been a little worried I'm not going to be happy with my end results. So I'm telling myself I am loads better than I was a year ago and perfection was never my goal. Hopefully the chicken wings and apron shrink more but for now I'll rock the boots and be happy.23

I had to get in some more calories tonight and I opted for extra dinner salad with veggies and goat cheese. Split some tea buiscuits with my dog and am not in the proper range. Tomorrow I need to get more exercise to spur on my appetite earlier in the day.8

Self discipline is not my long suit, nor is consistency (understatements). Mostly, I keep active via on-water rowing, because I love it. I had not bern able to do it this year until recently (pandemic). My enjoyable twice weekly spin classes were also cancelled.
Earlier in summer, I finally told myself I needed to treat (less fun) workouts like tooth-brushing: Just a necessary thing I did, regardless.
Since early July, I've consistently done workouts 6 days a week: 6 days cardio (mostly rowing machine), 3 days strength. So far, I haven't missed even once.43 -
I ran a virtual 10 English Mile race (16,1km) Was a PB on distance. My husband also finished it.
To think we were both nervous whether we could finish it as late as this morning.18 -
I am shrinking! Not enough for a full size but enough to notice
I popped into the shops to buy one t-shirt and came out with two VERY cute dresses27 -
I wake up with a strong, healthy back. I used to start every day with lower back pain, walking around like a semicolon; I'd have to sit up for an hour before the pain left and my back straightened out. That's gone!!32

Today I ran 20 miles (well, most of it) 2 weeks out from a marathon.
Only job now is to not hurt myself, or massively freak out about it!35 -

Congratulations! Seeing progress like this can be very rewarding.
It's been almost exactly a year since I started C25k. Last September I could barely run 60 seconds without passing out. Today I went on a training run and had one of my best runs of the year.
I really hope running is as good to you as it has been to me. It's been an amazing mood stabilizer. And the cool thing is, running really does reward consistency and practice.20 -
I’m wearing size large tees and am pleased with the curves that show. I’m still a pear, but no longer a blob. If this is just 3.5 months of steady work, I’m eager to see what another few months will do to my body composition.26

Scales not moving much at the moment (period related, *I hope*), so NSV all the way:
Last week:
- Under 500kcals daily average deficit.
- Only one red day (in>out).
- Avoided bingeing even though I was starving.
- Drank wine and kept within my calories.
- Starting having to wear a belt with my biking trousers to stop me from getting a gap between them and my jacket as they ride down a little when I'm on the bike (well this is probably more to do with them stretching out a little, but I'm taking it as a win)13 -
My own little victory today is going for my first session at the gym.
Blooming knackered but feeling good!...18 -
VO2 is up and Garmin says I may get a few steps and miles in each week.

Hi,new here. What is NSV?5
-
This is a slightly weird one, but my heart rate monitor now fits underneath my sports bra without issue.
It has a rather bulky “computer” thing in the front, and to get the sensors to read properly it used to be a balancing act right on the edge of the bra.
Realised the other day I can wear it higher now and just have it all inside the bra still reading properly and not causing chafing or anything.17
