One positive thing required

My little voice in my head loves it when I am negative - she's a defeatist witch who just loves all my failings and loves to remind me every second - sometimes rather too loudly. We've all got that voice so time to stamp on it for a second.
Post one positive thing you did today....
hell if you did loads of positive things post them all - they say the more positive you are the positive you become.
Whats mine?
I heated up some left over macaroni and cheese for my lunch today. It was homemade, withing my calories and no guilt attached to eating it. But when I took my first bite - I actually didn't want to eat it - it was too greasy, so I chucked it in the bin and made myself a salad instead. There is an old me who would have eaten it regardless of the taste - the new me valued myself more than eating something I wasn't going to enjoy. Go me!!!
What have you done thats positive today? come on spill....

i went to the shop to lift out cash, stood infront of the Pick n Mix display for a good 5 minutes, then walked away empty handed
i keep thinking of Legally Blonde 2, when they submit positive things about themselves and everyone says "Snaps for..." and snaps their fingers :laugh:0 -

That's Awesome! Wish I had that much drive! I just might do it anyway. That inspired me to at least try0 -
I woke up an hour early to do my post two week INSANITY workout Fit Test. I improved in five areas and stayed level in one!0

We had a baby bird fall out of a tree this morning in front of the dogs. My daughter got the dogs inside quick enough, my son and I put gloves on. He climbed the tree and I climbed a ladder, gave him the baby and he put it back into the nest. Baby and momma are happy and unharmed. Felt so good to save a little life!
Also got up at 3;30 this morning to give my husband a ride to work, after a horrible nights sleep and still worked out.0 -
Drank 6 glasses of water instead of soda (1st time doing that!)0

I kept to my breakfast and daily food-prep routine even though I just moved and my whole life feels out of whack! I may not be able to find half my posessions, lol, but I'm still eating right!0

As a future daughter in law I can't even express how good it feels to hear things like that!! You'd be amazed how much weight we put on what the mommas- in-law think!0 -

I went to the store thinking that for a (semi) healthy lunch, I'd get some tortilla chips, my fave black bean and corn salsa, and some chicken to throw in there.
Instead...I got taco shells to use as chips...less sodium and cals, organic mild salsa....less sodium and cals, and a Morningstar burger instead of chicken...more protein and less cals.
Can't wait to eat it, lol!
The cals are on my food diary already if you'd like to add me as a freind. 0 -

loving all these positive statements!!!!
In 22 replies between us we made healthy food choices, was kind to someone and probably made their day, saved a life and got into some smaller clothes!!
I wonder what positive things await us now that we are looking for them!!0 -
My most positive thing was that I didn't GRUMP when my 4.5 year old woke me up at 2:00 because she had a nightmare. She just climed into bed with me and my 21 month old. (Lucky DH was in another bed and another room.) I never fell back asleep... but I got her back to sleep.
AND I worked out this am. I was exhausted, but I did it.0 -
After I dropped my daughter off at school, I thought about stopping at McDonald's (was wanting a hash brown after seeing it in someone's diary), but instead, I came home and made myself a healthy breakfast.0

My coworker brought in homemade cinnamon rolls and I said "No thank you" then I decided I would just have half of one and then I looked at them and thought nope I'm just not gonna do it!! Yay me!! 0

Watched "Biggest Loser" last night. Those three girls in the final four have made amazing transformations. What a positive influence they must give to millions of people. I am inspired by them.0

I just passed on yoghurt cake - home made - smelling nice!!! and beleive me it was an impressive feat - because it calls to me, sings to me - don't get me wrong I have had a peice - after dinner - but there was half a cake left (still warm - drool!) and I cut some for my husband and I got a plate out to have another slice myself - but nope I didn't I wrapped it up - I'm soooo disciplined!! hurrah!!!0
