1. Being active is a part of my life which is AMAZING!
2. I'm wearing shorts! I never wore shorts!
3. Telling a very fit guy in my spin class about our class being hard that night and his response was, "Whew! I'm glad you thought so, too!"0 -
1. Size 24 pants to 14.
2. More energy to GO to those classes at the gym.
3. Sleeping better.0 -
1) 8 of my 10 meds are gone
2) this time last year I couldn't stand or walk for more than 5-10 minutes at a time (was in wheelchair) and have now walked 2 -5k's
3) can finally wear my wedding set again0 -
1) 4x day, every day I go into an empty office here & do 75 crunches & 40 pushups
2) Saw an old friend for the first time in years this weekend & he was speechless
3) I'm now the same weight as when I was a 23 year old gym rat0 -
I was advised to lift heavy. OmG! Heavy lifting has done more for my sport (kick boxing) in a couple months than YEARS of light lifting! I'm just amazed!
I am down to my fighting weight/weight class with out all the hassle. MFP makes it idiot proof to lose weight the right way. I didn't know to weigh my food before now. It makes a HUGE difference in how much I can eat without worrying if I'm going under/over.
Met some amazing, inspiring people and saw some amazing, inspiring pics. It was personal success at it's finest, sans a sales pitch for BS. Epic GIFs, No really, Epic GIFs (I know that was actually 4 things!)0 -
1.) I lost 3 pants sizes.
2.) I don't get winded from just walking anymore.
3.) I can fit comfortably in a movie theater seat now.0 -
1. My face and skin are no longer greasy. Goodbye uncontrollable acne.
2. I actually see improvement when I look into the mirror, not disappointment.
3. I am starting to gain self confidence, something that I have never possessed in my entire life.
Can't wait to see what the rest of my journey holds!0 -
1.) I have more energy, its crazy but I enjoy it. :-)
2.) The more weight I lose the less my back hurts.
3.) Overall my mental health is greater. I'm stronger emotionally and I am not afraid to try on pants anymore and I have better control over what I eat and feel good about it.0 -
1. I feel comfortable in my skin again
2. I can finally walk in heels (less weight to carry + better leg muscles)
3. Walking the dogs is fun because I can actually go for 3 miles without being exhausted0 -
1) My anxiety has lessened
2) When I look down at my thighs/legs in size 12 jeans, or M athletic shorts, it looks like someone else's body to me
3) My back fat (enormous rolls) went away0 -
1. Off my acid reflux meds and anxiety meds
2. Went from a size 20 to a size 14!!
3. Feeling like my outside is finally matching my inside!0 -
1) My anxiety has lessened
2) When I look down at my thighs/legs in size 12 jeans, or M athletic shorts, it looks like someone else's body to me
3) My back fat (enormous rolls) went away0 -
1) I bought a size smaller pants and blouses
2) I can carry my groceries easier and they don't feel so heavy
3) I can run for my bus when I'm running late and not get out of breath.0 -
1) completed my first 5k
2) I can bike to work without issue
3) I'm no longer mistaken for pregnant0 -
It's a good habit to count our blessings and look back on the awesome results you've had since starting MFP. How many sizes did you move down? How often do you get compliments now? Were you finally able to cut back on maintenance medicine? Write the best 3!
I'll start:
1) My knees don't hurt anymore when I hike.
2) The compliments definitely upped my confidence.
3) I don't feel as hot and sweaty and tired as before!
I'll second your three (it's like you read my mind) and add these:
a) being able to go further faster
b) wearing 'slim' fit shirts
c) coming off blood pressure meds0 -

Great idea for thread!!!!
1. I have started running
2. Gone down 2 pants sizes
3. Feel more confident0 -
15 days in and:
1. I went from "fits like a glove" size 18 pants back into a comforatble size 16.
Also in tops/blouses size 2X/1X to XL (woman's).
2. I am motivated to take care of the outside of me too. I had been feeling frumpy so I was dressing that way too, not anymore, I am dressing up more, doing my hair/makeup and people are noticing that I look and feel better. Lots more smiles. :happy:
3. My knee is feeling better (from ACL surgery a few years ago) and doesn't bother while getting in my minimum 10,000 steps a day!
I am looking forward to more awesome things happening to me/us!0 -
1. quit smoking
