I thought it would be good to reflect on the positive things that happened this week. Give yourself a pat on the back for all of the little things this week. I'm proud that....

1) I started on a Tuesday. I'm not sure if it's OCD or just my lazy *kitten* excuses, but in the past.. I would basically write off the whole week and wait to " start" on Monday.
2) I passed on fast food, chocolate birthday cake,and a fresh homemade cinnamon bun ( my fave) that was put right on my desk from a friend at work. I love ya K, but I have to pass on that deliciousness.
3) I had ONE glass of wine yesterday. (if my son wouldn't have woken up and needed cuddles... I would have drank 2 more.. Buuuuut... I'm counting it as a success. )

    I had a green apple instead of a twix candy bar, and I really really wanted it.

    I moved down into the healthy weight range for my height. First time in a long time for that.

    I had a really bad upper body workout the other day. But today I was back and smoked it. That felt really good.

    I have had over a week of gaining and losing the same 2lbs. Yesterday morning the 2lbs was back after getting it off the day before. I flipped out and swore I was quitting, cried, and then got my *kitten* up and went to the gym. I was proud of myself for not letting a set back turn into quitting. Also, I am going to a baby shower today, and I will make good choices, and then I will be proud of myself.

    I walked my dog a mile yesterday in 85 degree weather. I know it doesn't sound like much, but its a start for me!

    I actually ran on a treadmill. It was in thirty second bursts but it was a legitimate run. That wouldn't have been doable just a few months ago.

    Great post!

    September is my month to work on myself and learning to accept my body flaws and all.

    This week I wore what I had and didn't stress on what didn't fit.
    I managed my eating very well, I had been having more in-hindsight days lately so keeping up with everything eaten is a relearning process.

    I'm compiling a lot of recipes that can be baked in Ramekins. This is helping me control my portion size. :drinker:

    I lost another 2lb so now only 2lb from my goal. It also makes me the lowest weight I have been since pre children.

    I have turned a mental mile stone. If I weigh myself and have put on, it doesn't matter, it's water weight. I haven't over eaten and therefore it definitely is not fat, so why stress.

    I am now officially in the healthy weight range for my height.

    On Wednesday night I swam the furthest I've ever done- 75 lengths, 1,875m.

    I didn't give in to all the temptations that cross my table - they were A LOT.

    I'm proud that I bought a donut today for the first time in eight months (used to have a couple every Saturday/Sunday at work) and it didn't satisfy me at all. It tasted like iced bread.

    My schedule had some conflicts in it, so changed my schedule to get up at 4:45am to workout this whole week instead of just blowing off my workout. I'm not usually a morning person, that was kind of big for me lol

    I worked out on my lunch breaks a couple of days.
    I finished week 2 of the c2 10 program.
    I ordered a short salted caramel mocha with soy no whip and sugar free mocha! --I normally get a venti salted caramel mocha with soy.
    I went out to dinner at the Cheesecake Factory and passed on their delicious bread, cheesecake, and strawberry lemonade!!!!!!

    I made it under my one of my ultimate plateaus! I have never been under 230 in my adult life.

    Well, over the last week and a half, I exercised intentionally (not doing "cleaning", etc.) 9 days in a row...I only broke my streak because my daughter was up sick during the night and I could go to the gym the next morning.

    Shopped at my favorite store today and realized I went from a size 10 to a 4. Holy cow huge change! It was so exciting, I am really proud of myself.
