    I'm proud of myself for going to the gym and working out for 1 1/2 hours despite being extra tired and not wanting to go!

    I was actually just thinking of this as I was working out today. I just recently started MFP again, but with more motivation this time. Proud I actually did my workout today and eating healthier. It is just the beginning, but I am doing it! Proud of that!!!!

    I'm proud of myself because I've been working so hard that my jeans are getting baggy in the butt. And everywhere else too! But mostly in the butt, 'cause that's the biggest part right now!

    I'm proud because I signed up for my first 5K today! I've never been a runner, but am working on the C25K program. I'm loving it so far!

    I'm proud of myself for being 40lbs away from minus 300 lbs. A feat that a couple years ago when I started this journey I didnt see as reality. I'm proud of myself for finally being able to see my own progress. I put on a suit the other day that was smaller than a size 50 for the first time in 20 years. I'm just proud! Humble, but PROUD!! woot woot

    I'm proud of my brand new size TEN work pants! Much nicer than my 14s! AND they were on major sale ;)

    I'm proud of how I turned down tons of Valentines treats from co-workers AND my students.

    Okay, I was so excited and happy after my cardio appt. today that I wanted to cry.

    I certainly prove that eating better and exercising makes a big difference.

    I though this was just a follow up with a discussion of my last summers run of many tests
    which is was, but they also did a rapid NON-fasting blood test.

    I was a bit disappointed in their scale as I weighed 157 at 11:30 with clothes on because
    my scale says I weigh 149, but. The good news is I lost 9 lbs. in 7 mo. since I last went
    to see him. I was 166. I almost died when I asked my weight history since I have been
    seeing a cardiologist and my highest weight was 178 almost 2 years ago. YIKES!

    So, here are my numbers in comparison to July 26, 2011

    Total Chol: 185 to 153 (don't forget this was also NON fasting) could have been a better number - EEEEEEE
    Trig: 157 to 62 (holy crap)
    HDL (good) 50 to 57 (thanks to exercise I'm guessing)
    LDL (bad) 104 to 84 (yes)
    Chol. ratio 3.7 to 2.7 1% is huge he said
    AND...
    Blood sugar 103 to 97. Now I did have a check of this with my primary in the Fall and it was 119 so this is huge BECAUSE
    I'm no longer consider pre-diabetic!!!!! oh yeah!!!!!!!!! happy dance.

    @DeniseAS - WOW!!!! that is awesome! congrats on your weight loss and on hitting those health goals. Great job - thanks for the reminder that hard work DOES pay off!
