What have you done today today to make you feel proud?

Joisgettingfit

I don't know if there is a thread like this but it's sometimes hard to stop and pat yourself for the little everyday achievements that put you a step closer towards your goal, wether its going for a run,doing p90x, turning down desert
anything.

I'll go first

I burnt 826 calories today because I overindulged, I'm still over by 89 calories but i just want to die right now so i'm going to lay in my bed for a bit and drop off to sleep and work off those 89 calories when i wake up in the morning.

EDIT: STUPID TYPO, can a mod change it for me

caitlinlws

wow...after burning 800 calories, I wouldn't stress too much about 89...great job!!

I am in the process of getting in shape for a 5k, and I ran 2.5 miles straight today-my longest distance yet since coming back from an injury

I taught a little kid how to ice skate

Went to the gym with my friend even though it was supposed to be my rest day. I went in the morning. I hate going to the gym in the morning. Good thing I did go though I went over my calories could have been much worse if I didn't... I hate seeing the red numbers too

With having had both my ACL's replaced...... I finally was able to do a full Turbo Jam high intensity without my extra weightKILLING my knees and I did TJ after day 7 of the 30DS

I went over my calories today because, after making homemade chocolate chip and walnut cookies for a family reunion tomorrow, I decided I had to taste at least one from each batch!! lol! SO, I went walking in my neighborhood. Now my leg muscles are jumping!!! I feel proud that I made myself get off my *kitten* and walk instead of feeling guilty about the cookies... (which were delicious, by the way!)

I ran eight miles today. Oh, and I asked not to have the bread delivered to my table at lunch at Logan's Roadhouse... major victory!

I got up today and went to a new gym. This may not sound like much - but I'm the kind of person who doesn't really like change in my normal routine, so going to a new gym was weird. On top of that, I NEVER get up and go work out - I'm always a go and workout at night kind of person.

It feels good to sit here at 9:12pm and know that my workout is out of the way already.

Instead of devouring an entire entree at the Hard Rock, I only ate half of my 6oz burger (I also removed the top bun), and only had about 5 fries. My first eating out experience while trying to lose weight went great I'd say!

cinico

I ran today for 3 miles and did some speed work! Burned 515 calories cause I knew I was going to have some cake today!! Way to go peeps!!

AND... I walked downtown Louisville for 4 hours!

TinaS88

Was still in my "I wanna be lazy I'm on vacation" mode and didn't want to work out, but I pushed myself and I'm getting through it!!

brickok

I mowed the lawn at the cottage with the neighbors push mower instead of getting the rider out!!

WifeMomDVM

Finally got back on track today. Ate totally clean today AND did 15 minutes of HIIT plus 30 minutes of steady state on the elliptical. Then I took my kids to the park AND I got a nap today! Great day!

I went to a new gym today too- it was to try my friends gym out they had an open day. I must say I prefer my regular gym soo much more! Did you like the new one??? I am also a work out at night kind of person too well afternoon/ early evenings, but going in the morning today I feel off like I didn't go to the gym I have to remind myself that yes I did go

Not related to weight loss, but I fixed up my 16year old daughter's new, used car. It is an 04 and had very hazy headlights. I used this restoration kit (lots of grinding) and now they are crystal clear. Touched up paint on a few chips and repainted the grill. She was very happy and I was thrilled to do it for her.

I walked for over an hour and took a yoga class:-)

dcladydi

Even though it was my rest day... I did a 20 minute cardio work out with Bob and kettle bells. I needed something to do to take my mind off of a bad situation I'm going through.

mynameiscarrie

I didn't go over my calories today even though i didnt exercise!! usually if i dont go to the gym i'll go over a little bit, but today i was under! that hasnt happened in a while!

SoldierDad

I called a friend who had a broken heart and spent the day playing with my kids. That way trumps any fitness stuff I did today (though the fitness stuff made me proud too).

I got 10 glasses of water down vs my normal 8.

I did like the new one. They have a lot of machines my current gym doesn't have - including one that supports your back while you do squats. I love to do squats, but can't do them anymore because of my back issues. So, having a machine support my back while I did them was FANTASTIC!

A few months ago I went with a girl I work with to her gym. HATED IT. Absolutely hated it. I couldn't wait to get out of there that night. She always wants me to go back and I won't go with her. I've told her it has NOTHING to do with HER - it's her gym I don't like (that sounds like a typical break up line doesn't it? "It's not you.. it's ME!" LMAO).

I'm going to try out one other gym before my current membership is up at the end of the month and see which one I want to go with....

I didn't mind working out early. The gym was empty while we were there - so it wasn't too bad. Well, except for the getting up part. LOL

My wife went on a shopping trip today, so I got up early to go for an hour long bike ride before she left. Then I spent the entire day with my kids! Took them to the pool to burn some more calories :-)

TDSeest

I biked 40 miles today, which doesn't sound like much, but I still have 173 pounds to lose...

ebramlett

I've made some super cool friends on MFP today!!

josavage

I ran 12 miles with my marathon training group and I finished with the group. The previous two years of training, I would fall behind the last couple of miles. It was a big NSV for me to keep with the group for the whole 12.
