I'm having a "yay me" day today, celebrating all the mini-accomplishments I've made so far. I've stopped drinking coffee (I only used to drink the 18% cream and real sugar so I switched to green tea and LOVE it!!). I drink 2 to 3 liters of water every day. I've stuck to my calories goals every day. There are cupcakes and cake sitting in the boardroom right next to my office and I haven't tried a thing. I didn't have time for breakfast and had the choice of a drive-thru or a grocery store and even though it's -28 I got out, picked up a ff yogurt and cottage cheese so that i could eat something better than I normally would (and won't be craving the cupcakes). And I've started working out and I actually enjoy it... I look like a fool trying to Turbo Jam and not knowing the moves but I don't mind since I'm working my butt off!! I know it sounds silly but I'm SO proud of myself.

What are you patting yourself on the back for recently??

    great job! I love when people recognize their NSV! It's not all about the scale! It's about health, and self-image!

    Yay!! Congrats bjmk19047!! It's so exciting to fit into new sizes. I am in the process of having to get rid of my dress pants... my 18's don't stay up at all anymore and one of these days I'm not going to be able to pull them up fast enough hahaha

    I had to look it up. I didn't know either and still don't know for sure, but so far I've found that it's a non-scale victory. Is that right?

    You should be very proud of yourself!!

    In 11 days I will have quit smoking for 1 year.
    I gave up drinking softdrink and juice in November.
    Today I have to go clothes shopping as nothing fits me anymore. bye bye size 20 and beyond.
