Walked three miles at lunch today. And yesterday. And the day before that. Also on Monday. Woo! I'm going for a 5 day streak.26

I bought a shirt off the rack yesterday without trying it on at the store. I got home and tried it on and it was too big! I had to go return it and buy a medium!!20
-
I didn't eat junk food for lunch today! Yippee! I almost always have to eat a small piece of chocolate or sweets or biscuits or something like that to "keep my sanity"
So today I decided to try eating only healthy foods for lunch, and I did it!20 -
I have not eaten one, no not even 1, Cadbury egg yet this season!38
-
Went for my bike ride and my midway snack was healthy fruit not so called "healthy " protein flapjack. Sat in a cafe watching a young mum feeding sugary junk to her daughter and pondered the meaning of food.12

So.
That Mars bar.
The one that's been in and out in my fridge more times than a left arm in the "Hokey Cokey".
I'm sad to say that it finally took its last journey today and served the purpose for which it was intended.
BUT NOT down MY throat. My teenage daughter ate it.
The temptation has been removed

During my life size game of Tetris cleaning my basement recently, I found a box of old clothes...in there was a halter dress that the boy I married bought me when we were on vacation in Hawaii nearly 20 years ago. I never wore it even back then because it was toooooo tight. Fits now..... 65

I went shopping in my closet! I realized that my size 14 jeans were falling down so I was brave enough to try on the 12's. A month or so ago I couldn't pull them up beyond my rather large thighs and rear end. I tried on the 12's and could button them. They were snug but I could wear them (I knew they would loosen up a bit from wearing them). So I went through my box of "too small" clothes that is stuffed in the back of my closet and pulled out some more jeans and some scrubs I haven't worn in a long time. It felt great!
Closet shopping ROCKS!!!7 -
Three this week:. Went down from a tight size 18 pants to a size 14, officially into one-derland, and 20 lbs down!!!39

That made me laugh.
I didn't even realise it had done that! Close enough though I guess. For the more confused, here's the Latin/scientific name: Salix caprea
Omg, I'm dying. So funny! When I was little I actually tried to name my cat P€$$¥ Willow (altered to avoid the mod bots), because he was really fluffy and reminded me of the plant...and I was pretty determined about giving him--yes, him--that name, so my poor parents had to stumble through the most awkward explanation ever of why that would not be a good name for kitty and the kinds of issues that might be caused by our calling for him outside. We ended up naming him Tommy instead.
Oh, and I have a new NSV. I have to actually scrunch my face down to make a double chin now. It's not just hanging out there on its own anymore.
My ex step sister had a cat named Puss Puss. That was fun to yell out the door when the cat got out...
LOL! My boss told me about his cat they named Sexy (!) anyway one day he was trying to find her as she ventured out their front door. he was only wearing underwear (just woke up) and here he was calling out here Sexy where are you sexy...as a couple of people walked past their gate

I swear it is like this monster in my closet.
The NSV - now I recognize it.
Now I just have to work on recognizing it before it rears its ugly head not after - lol.
This is a huge step...and once you recognize it you can figure out what else you need to do to cope!8 -

Yeah, duck foreplay consists of "brace yourself..."
Almost - there were two drakes attending to one duck (or hen may be the preferred term) and a lot of head bobbing going on by the drakes (which I'd never seen before) the female turned her back on both of them and was duly jumped on by one drake, much to the disgust (or disappointment?) of the other. The poor female didn't stand a chance.
So glad I'm not a duck . . . .
ducks are one of the few animals besides humans that will commit gang rape...

My NSV is a bit vain but when I looked up briefly when I was at the bench press machine, my ribs were slightly higher than my stomach when I was laying down. That was an incredible feeling 20

On Tuesday I ran a full 5K with two zombie chases thrown in and wasn't even tired. So, today I started a 5 to 10K program. This is a big NSV for me because I thought running just the 5K was so hard and took so long for me to do, the idea of 10K wasn't even an option. I thought, oh, 5K at my snail pace is awesome for an obese person, maybe when I lose more, I'll try longer runs. Nope. I completed W1D1 on my old challenging 10K walking route. I ran all my intervals including some grueling hills.
I also got another cheerleader today! A guy driving a big rig tapped his horn as he drove by and gave me a rather excited two thumbs up. All the positive attention from strangers on the street has certainly been encouraging, even if the sight of a truck driver with zero hands on the wheel is a bit unnerving.44 -
My son and I donated blood today. Beforehand, the tech took my blood pressure and iron levels. Both were perfect!29

today I didn't want to go to the gym. I was running late and it wasn't the class I thought it was going to be. However, its whooped my *kitten* and I felt so pleased I had made it after all 20
-
I can comfortably wear pants that I couldn't even get on five weeks ago!18
-
My smaller scrubs are actually accentuating my now smaller body. My fiancé pointed out that I have an hourglass figure again (yay!) And also, possibly TMI, he pointed out that I have lost my second butt cheek!23

Can't remember if I posted it here, but I am the weight (well, slightly under but haven't had official weigh-in day yet) listed on my drivers license!25

I did SIX pull-ups in a row!35

This. Love it- can't wait to be there myself!8 -
Past couple of days, I kept having to pull up my britches. Then it hit me. I notched one over on my belt, and everything is stable now. 16

At my heaviest I was getting tight in a 22. This morning I slipped into a size 16 jeans for the first time in a I can't even remember how long!29

I have the day off so yay! I'm meeting up with a friend and instead of going for some type of high calorie coffee and a muffin, we're going for a cross country ski. I truly love my life right now and feel like I'm in my 20's again (I'm 55 LOL). This friend is one that I've known for several years but only become closer since starting this weight loss journey. Every social encounter with my best friend from my previous life involved too much food and too much alcohol. There are lots of posts on here about "toxic" friends but the reality is that sometimes, for your own health, you just have to make new friends that encourage your efforts 24

The fact that I've walked on my treadmill four days this week since Monday. That's a record for me because in the past I would usually do every other day at most.17

Bruh. Y'all aren't gonna believe me when I tell you ... I have successfully HALTED a binge. In. Its. Tracks.
You see, I've been preparing for this day. I KNEW that once I lost my first 5 pounds, I would want to binge. I also KNEW that if I did binge, it would take WEEKS to get back on track. So I had a big breakfast and held on for as long as possible.
As for how I stopped my binge, it wasn't too original: I just ate. 16 grapes and a pack of gummies. The sugar and the little treat will hold me until lunch. Then I can refuel and ride things out until track practice. Once I get to track, I will be working out so I won't be hungry43 -
I was able to apply nail polish to my toes by simply sitting and easily bending over to apply two coats on each side! I did not die or stop breathing due to my stomach being in the way
