Everyone's Small Success Stories!

becoming_a_new_me

I've only lost five pounds so far, but those five pounds really mattered to me because I didn't know I could do it. It's nice to see all that I'm taking in in front of me and I can be accountable for my actions. No longer lazy daisy

Way to go!

I have had many small victories as I have been on this journey, and I celebrate each one. My best small success is that my determination and motivation has been contagious among my friends and family to the point that we have a support group on my FB page that we use to encourage and motivate each other. That was a true win for me.

I have been needing (and sort-of wanting) to get to a gym for at least a year now. I finally plucked up the courage to go last school holidays, and went for my induction and then got sick and didn't return for 2 1/2 months. These holidays, my promise to myself was to not only go back to the gym, but to go for at least half an hour a day - and I have - every day! Yay!

Lyndi4 Your story of your week is incredibly inspiring. I don't know if I could hold it together through all that AND make time for myself. You're amazing!

I second this!

I woke up this morning for the first time in a very long time without pain. My hips and back have been really bad since I had my twins 3 years ago. I have been able to sleep and NOT be in pain. I'm feeling GREAT for once and it's because I am sleeping and not struggling with my back and hip pain. I also survived day 4 of the 30DS and feel better than I have felt in a long long time. I love MFP and have had a great experience so far and it's only day 6 for me! I hope everyone meets their goals and continues to support each other and cheer each other on! Good luck, all!!

We had a late shift at work, doing a lot of furniture moving, and my manager brought chocolatey chocolate brownies with coffee icing (my weakness). Even though I wanted some, and even though I was pressured to have some, I just stayed there with my happy serving of my mini rice cakes.

I get compliments from fellow co workers. It's a great feeling. MFP has been very encouraging as well!!

In addition, I'm 1 lb from my ultimate goal. I'm hoping to maintain it and tone up for my summer vacation to Vegas.

Went to a club meeting today, where there were about 7 different types of awesome-toppinged pizzas and soda and I didn't have any! Instead, after, I came home and had broccoli and homemade hummus for lunch!
