Victory, Victory, Victory......I want to hear all about your personal victory. Big or small every positive victory helps us to reach or ultimate goals.
This last week I have reached a major victory in my personal journey. While I have no illusions that I will someday end up tall, and model skinny (I am 5'3" and even at my smallest weight when my stomach made a U between my hip bones I was never smaller than a size 8). I have reached the point that if I never lost another pound or inch I could care less. My journey has never been about weight or size it has been a struggle for energy.
I am happy to announce I have ENERGY! ENERGY! ENERGY! My body loves the 160s (it always has), I went from dragging myself on my bike every morning to jumping out of bed and trying to get my kids to get out of bed eariler so we can go, go, go.
While I will continue to change my habits and work towards building a healthier lifestyle my ultimate goal is complete. I had thought that my mind was playing tricks on me and that I never really had as much energy as I thought I use to, I have never been happier being wrong. Please do not misunderstand I still have along journey ahead; somewhere in the 30 lb range to be considered fit but it is no longer just a dream that might happen instead it is something that will happen.

Glad to hear your feeling the energy !!!!
My NSV would be since I've started MFP my pants fit looser, I see my abs starting to peer through the disappearing flub, and I lost 3 inches on my hips!!! I also feel connection to other fit people who struggle, triumph and all want health and satisfaction! So I guess finding this site was a victory in itself Hope to post my before and afters in October!! Hope alot of you guys from this group can aswell!!! :bigsmile: 0
