    incidentally; bread is also my victory of the day; took the bun off my chicken sandwich, patted myself on the back.

    I almost caved in to a McDonald's Mocha Frappe, I wanted one so bad!!!! (medium is 560 cals) instead I got a medium Sweet Tea...only 180 calories. So I'm enjoying a wee bit of a sweet treat without falling out of my calorie limits!!!

    Great Job! I would have caved....mocha frappe's are my FAVORITE!

    My small success was doing a bit of workout even though I absolutely hated every second of it :grumble:

    Went to grocery store and bought loads of veggies to make a giant salad to last the entire week. Romaine lettuce, some spring mix, carrots, cucumbers, green peppers, cherry tomatoes. Yum yum. Also picked up some black raspberries, granny smiths, and bananas. A very successful trip!

    I love ALL those things. I make a huge salad every Sunday to eat for lunch throughout the week. Planning ahead is a major part of the success....

    Visited my local farmer's market, stocked up on tons of fresh veggies and healthy legumes, then had to carry it around for many hours... I therefore both bought healthy AND weight lifted the whole afternoon haha!

    I already posted this as my status, but I'll be happy to mention it again. For the first time I was able to do all 200 reps in the TH-200 ab program. It was a struggle and my abs are sore, but I made it!

    found a workout buddy :) we motivated each other this morning for a walk about 2 hrs long and covering 6 miles :) i won't be able to join her again this week (due to prior commitments on my part) but making plans to make this a habit and adding in the gym to the plan :) for me that will mean a morning walk once a week (at least) and the gym once a week (at least) which is just crazy to me, i never imagined i would want to do either of those things :) i also did a 10 minute video for yoga basics being super sore thought the stretch would help :) and am now planning a walk with my hubby after dinner :) i feel sort of like super woman today :) lol

    although i think the best part was making lunch after the walk i shared blueberries with my baby girl :heart: we both gobbled those up :) we've been struggling with meal time.. she wants to feed herself but doesn't want what is offered (no clue what she wants, she doesn't talk much just "mom", "dada", ect) but she's seeing me eat these items and now wants them... unexpected perk to eating healthier :) i've gotten to share banana's, strawberries, and blueberries now :)

    I mowed our front lawn and went for a walk today. Totally felt the burn in my calves when I was walking but it also felt so good! :bigsmile:

    Weighed in 3 pounds up this month : ( but instead of getting depressed I used it to motivate me to kick it in gear and by truly honest about the type of food that I am putting in my body!

    I actually took a Pilates class. First time doing any physical activity of any sort other than normal walking around since February. And I did not die! My legs were literally shaking at one point but I did not move out of the pose/exercise.
