Sometime's this can be a long road and it's great to remind ourselves of the little things that can either mean a lot or add up to a big difference!

Maybe it's....
> saying no to cake when offered
> dropping a body fat % point
> walking somewhere you'd normally drive
> pants are too baggy / shirt too tight (if you're building)
> getting those extra 5 reps at the gym

Small or big, the only rules are it must really matter to you and tell us why.



For me this week....

I'm almost 4weeks in and pseudo pregnant belly is gone! Stomach is much flatter and I'm 8-9 inches slimmer overall! :happy: I've a very long road to go so very happy I've got a measurable & noticeable difference to remember.


Would love to hear what's keeping you going this week.

    30 full man press ups on Wed at circuits.


    Also quite pleased I can get into a dress I bought 10 years ago for a ball, and it looks better on me now at 34 than it did pre-children at 24. AND I can wear it without a bra!


    edit - now I just need something to wear it for!

    Getting into healthy habits that will hopefully stick with me for life -every day without fail: eat breakfast, drink at least 8 glasses of water, take vitamins including calcium and vitamin D. My Dr. will be proud next time lol.

    Ive worn a pair of trousers that were a size to small when i first bought them & i looked good in them :happy:
    But the thing im really happy about is that my BMI is only 3 points away from moving out of obese & into overweight :bigsmile:

    2.5 years ago I lost the last of the 30 pounds I gained a few years prior. I was very tired and lethargic all the time and it took about 2 years to fully lose the weight that I had gained in a very short period of time.

    My mini achievement is this: not gaining it back. Going on three years now and I know I can do it. I find it a bit of a struggle and have to watch myself constantly - but I know I can do it.

    My new goal is to lose 20 pounds this year, or possibly by next year... it will be more of a major achievement but I'm ready for the journey.
