Sounds stupid, but I prelogged my food today and adjusted my planned lunch to fit my planned dinner.

Great NSV. Nothing is stupid if it helps you succeed!

I wore shorts out for the first few times in about 5 years. Not capri, not down to my knee, legitimate shorts.

I had to renew my driver's license today. The lady at the desk was going over my details and glancing up at me to double-check as she did so.

"Hair, blonde? Yep." (It's actually light brown as far as I'm concerned, but whatever!)
"Eyes, blue? Yep."
"Height, 5'6"?" *nod from me* "Yep."
"Weight, 215...?" *pause, smile, small laugh from her* "Nope!"

Made my day - it's nice to know I obviously look lighter now!

I've just started training myself for a 5K run this week. I haven't set a date and I have such a long way to go, but tonight my daughter took her dog and went out with me for my last walk of the day. The dog stopped midway up a big hill to do his thing but I kept going. I got to the top of the hill before they caught up with me. I was so proud of myself!!! And I was not out of breath completely like I used to be when faced with a hill. This stuff is addictive! LOL

I am starting to see a flat stomach, even after I eat! That's huge for me, the lower ab workouts are really paying off and I just started seeing results.

I have always been a dreamer on my drivers licence and put my weight at about 30 pounds less than it truly was. I am finally not only less than what my licence says.....but WAY less

Not fitting into a pair of jeans that I bought two weeks before in efforts to update my wardrobe. Ah well then.

This is why I shop mostly at second hand stores right now - so when I've shrunk out of the new clothes at least I know they didn't cost a fortune!

I'm going to need to start doing that since my brand new skinny jeans from last month are no longer fitting right

I did FOUR pull-ups in a row!!!

Unrelated to weight loss but a huge victory nonetheless, I successfully defended my master's thesis yesterday! (Only an internship left between me and that MSc title)

@SunflowerSandra - Congrats! That is awesome! I know how stressful that is.

Picking up a 20 pound bag of cat litter and realizing I've lost that much and I'm super proud of myself

Walked 1.25 miles today in 28 minutes and a lot of it was uphill!! I haven't walked a mile in years but I did it today. I felt amazing right after.

@jessiferrrb my jeans are a little looser than what you showed. I've been wearing them for 20 lbs (6 months). My mom's comment when I pointed this out was that they might fit right if I lost 20 more pounds. Ahhhhh...mom!

Today, the grocery store lady told me I was looking great!

Ran along the ocean surf on Sunday.....always wanted to be "that" person and looky there.....

ugh, moms! i try not to talk to mine about the process but sometimes i break down because she asks about a million times "have you lost any more weight?" or she'll say something like "i didn't know if you were still trying because i saw you eat a cookie the other day" she has always defined her worth and mine by appearances and would tell me since grade school that nobody would love me if i didn't lose weight. it's hard to separate her issues from mine sometimes.

My mom called me the other night to ask me what diet and exercise I do... say what!!!??!?!?

As someone who has always been the "chunky" one in my family this was for sure a weird occurrence and not at all something I thought would happen.

Put on a pair of pants this morning that haven't fit since I bought them a few years ago, and they're very comfortable! Unfortunately, now that my waist and hips fit in them, I see that the legs are cut way too baggy for what I like. Oh well - still enjoying the success!

@SunflowerSandra Congratulations!! That's a huge accomplishment!!
