    This morning I fit into a pair of jeans that I never could get into before. I had to wear a belt as they were a little loose around the waist.

    I've got my monthly friend (sorry tmi) and I don't have to unbutton my dress slacks even with the bloat!

    My small success today was wearing shorts out in public:smile: I NEVER wear shorts...at least I haven't in years because I have been too self conscious! I have lost 18 lbs so far and although I have a ways to go...I am actually no longer embarassed to wear them!!! My husband was shocked to see me in them and even complimented my legs and said I sould wear shorts more often....he made my day!

    I cannot wait for the day I will gladly wear shorts, skirts and dresses in public again.

    I rode my bike to and from work today and yesterday. I feel successful for not giving up.

    Well, this was Sunday, but oh well! I went shopping and tried on a ton of L dresses. Some of them looked horrible, but they all fit! Every single one, and I even had to take back some XLs to try on those Ls.

    There were fudgey, gooey, frosted brownies in the common area at work. I opted for a 100 calorie snack pack of fudge striped cookies. Chocolate minus the guilt.

    I went to the gym 2 days in a row and ate well. Trying to get into the groove without driving myself insane about it.

    I ran 3.2 miles today outside (without stopping or walking) for the first time! Did it in just under 31 minutes! I am thrilled!

    Got away from my desk at lunch and went to the fitness facility. If I do some form of exercise during the day, I won't be disappointed if I don't do anything in the evening.

    After logging exercise, breakfast, and luch for the day, I saaw how many calories I had left and thought of eating out for dinner. Then I said NO!!! I googled a healthy spaghetti recipe instead!!

    If you're even looking for healthy, low cal recipes check out skinnytaste.com. There is a plethora, yes plethora, or easy recipes using ingredients probably in your cupboard.

    I have been stalking skinnytaste.com since I read this post and I am OBSESSED! Thanks! :)

    it's small, but I was able to wear a shirt I haven't worn in over a year. I'd call that a success :)

    I just started on my weight loss journey and do marketing for restaurants which leads to temptation EVERYWHERE I go. My small success is not only losing an additional 1.5 pounds, but resisting the siren song of those double bacon cheeseburgers (and sweet potato fries) and finding just as delicious, but healthier items.
