    Went to cardio class this morning. On the way out, the instructor told me I did a great job today.

    This particular class is really tough on me and I always feel like quitting half way through. I just keep on truckin'! Really nice to hear that the person in charge noticed.


    Fantastic job! I love seeing the ones who have a hard time push through! I remember being right there with them and look forward to them being right there with me someday! I'm always afraid of them giving up! Awesome for you!

    Mine today was I didn't want to get up early this morning to exercise before work. But, I forced myself to get up and exercise this morning.
    But, my big NSV was Wednesday when I was getting dressed for a bbq, I have only been wearing size 8's because I didn't think I could fit into 6's yet ( I had bought some, just didn't think I was ready for that size yet). I put on a size 6 and they fit. I also got a size 6 for a birthday gift that day and they fit too. My best friend's family were so happy when I told them that they fit. Because they know how hard I have been working at losing weight. When I started this journey in January, I wore size 12's and they were very tight.

    I can feel my workout I did last night! I love to know that I didn't half-*kitten* it but really pushed myself. Soon I will not only feel the results but see them too! :happy:

    My thighs don't touch. Even when I was my skinniest there were days where they would touch.

    Went to lunch with a friend and as much as wanted a sandwich, I stuck with a salad and baked chips. So proud of myself for making a healthy choice! :happy:

    2) My husband invited me to the most delicious BBQ joint in Austin today and I respectfully declined. :bigsmile:

    Gave into the crap food craving since I haven't in about a month and quickly realized that I don't want it anymore! It was GROSS. I'd so much rather have a salad and nuts and grilled chicken than some fast food junk. This change is so much better than any scale loss.

    My Acanthosis Nigricans (it's a skin issue relating to insulin-resistance, google it) is noticeably lighter to me after just a week of healthy-eating and exercise!

    That is AWESOME! Keep it up!!!
    Diet and exercise can have a huge impact on everything physical!
    My psoriasis has gotten way better since starting clean eating.

    I am about to start doing management shifts at work and needed uniform. So I tried on clothes a size smaller that I am in. They were too big so they ordered me 2 sizes smaller. They gave my waist shape and for the first time in years I wore a fitted polo shirt. When I got changed back into my current uniform it looked so ridiculously big the manager ordered a whole new set for that role I do too.

    I am wearing a bra that I bought a LONG time ago, and couldn't return it (cuz you just don't DO that with bras), even tho the tags were still on it..........it's NOT too tight around me, and it fits nicely.

    Even tho that means the girls are a little smaller :wink: :wink:
