    Awesome post, I've loved reading everyone's accomplishments! Today, even though I am STARVING, (yes capital S, capital T, capital... you get the idea), I am not binging on the chips and cheetos in the cupboard.

    And, I donated blood at the hospital today. I saved a life today... or so they told me
    -Robin

    Thanks for the blood, I needed that !! lol.

    That is great. Make sure to eat some protein at dinner...build up those red blood cells!:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    Hi Everyone!

    Today I am sorting through some emotional issues that have gotten me down and tripped up my attempt at being healthy. It will not all be solved today, but it took some courage to really open up and look at things for what they are. As we all struggle and succeed on this journey to a healthy lifestyle, I think it is important for us to keep track of our emotional weight as much as our physical weight.

    Many blessings to everyone and continued success!!! :flowerforyou:

    Theresa (such a lovely name, my grandma and my daughter...ahhh, I hope you are doing better.

    Sometimes I read a thread here and emotion will come bubbling up and I :sad: and think where did that come from?? :brokenheart:

    If I can do anything, let me know!:smooched: :smooched:

    I still haven't eaten any of the candy I bought for trick-or-treating (even though the peanut butter cups call out to me every time I walk past them).

    banish the candy to the cellar!! LOL.

    I am not buying candy this year. That takes care of that....plus I will get extra cardio from scrubbing the eggs off my house and getting the TP out of my trees!!

    Today I jogged a little bit more than last night and I did it on the MAIN road...not concerned about people seeing me (okay I was a little concerned about what people would think if they saw me...but I didn't care as much as last night)

    I walked a mile this morning before work. Its the first time I've done that in months. It felt good to do it for myself even if it meant not getting to sleep as late as I'd like!:happy:

    I took a 30 min. walk at lunch, and I stayed WELL within my calories! I measured EVERY SINGLE thing that went into my mouth today!

    Arewethereyet, thanks so much for starting this thread and for personally responding to each post...this thread is like a mini-challenge for me...because every day I think to myself...what can I do today to put on the "make yourself proud" thread? And that makes me push myself a little further than I normally would...tonight while watching TV I plan to lift my hand weights instead of just sitting here...haven't done it yet but I'll feel proud when I actually do it!

    thats funny, laura. YOU motivated ME to go for a 45 minute walk! Actually I never made it, I started dancing and danced for 45 minutes. Now I have to figure out what to eat for 286 calories!

    Have a great night! Strong arms are beautiful!
