what was your small win for the day?

schicksa

I ran for 45 minutes with the dog after getting home today (I also went to spin class at lunch). We're starting training for a half-marathon and this was my first jog out in a long time.

my coworker bought capriotti's for lunch along with a big chocolate chip cookie for each of us, I unwrapped the cookie later this afternoon, but then decided it wasn't worth it. so i wrapped it back up and there it sits on my desk, uneaten! normally i wouldn't think twice but now i can easily say no!! and that is my big win for the day

Nice work!! So hard to say no, and harder to re wrap.

Went to see my doctor today for some advice and help on weight loss. There is a subsidised gym program for the obese. When I asked if I could be referred to it he said it was only for those with a BMI of 35 and over. Since mine is 31, I am too skinny Yeah or maybe not because I will have to pay full price now. LOL

Realized today that I can actually bend down and tie shoes. No more looking for a chair to rest foot on just to reach it.

I didn't eat the yummy, soft, fresh, delicious bagels and cream cheese that was served for breakfast today at work.

I'm avoiding the jar of "Tootsie Rolls" here at work.

I just finished a yummy salad I made for lunch. And my foot doesn't hurt as bad today(It is a bit ticked off at me for running my first 1/2 marathon on Sunday and then thinking i could run AGAIN on Tuesday)

Small victory--

My friends wanted to go to the Chinese buffet for lunch. This is my favorite place to pig out. I was nervous going in that I would be able to find good choices that were also yummy and not have to just eat salad (which I hate). I also knew that we were going to a street fair tonight so I needed to leave calories for this evening as well.

I went, ate 1 cup of chicken and broccoli, one pan-fried dumpling, and 1/2 a cup of rice noodles and was able to stop at that point. I totally resisted the urge to go and fill a second plate with fried goodness.

I am really proud of myself. A week ago, I would never have done that.

despite a severe panic attack earier in the day, I still got in alittle workout.

The weather in Chicago is starting to turn, and even though it was gray, windy, and wet outside... and even though I rocked out at the gym yesterday and will be going again tomorrow morning... I still put on my running shoes and did 2 miles tonight. Thanks to my run I came in just barely under my calorie goal!

DonniesGirl69

Getting through my run despite the fact that it was 104 degrees......and I didn't even puke at the end! :laugh:

cdidaho

Today is day 1 of my diet. I'm eating small meals every 4 hours. So far I've kept to the timing and quantities really well. If I can make it to bed tonight without putting anything else in my mouth I'll feel victorious.

Oh my gawd, that is awesome. Buffets are my weakness. I seriously cannot even control myself. You are awesome - you should feel great!!

kellyo15

I had three separate classmates of mine come up to me today and ask to join me at the gym when I go so that I can teach them how to use weights and how to do my workouts Made me feel pretty darn good about myself!

I know this will sound twisted on a weight loss site but the fact that I didn't give into wanting to exercise. I'm on a workout break due to a major 5 month weight loss stall. Trying to reset and start again!!Exercise is like crack!! :ohwell:

was really craving breakfast for dinner, like a French Toast Slam from Dennys (haven't had a breakfast like that in about a year!) and decided to hold off until AFTER I do a long run on Sunday...

Not twisted at all. It's good to know when to rest and recharge.

Hahaha loove that

I ate horribly today, however, I logged everything. One of my hardest hurdles has been being truthful about anything extra I ate. I had already decided that today was going to be a cheat day, but I logged everything. Every little thing. It may be small, but it's pretty big to me.

My large victory was rather small in a sense. I went out to purchase some new jeans as none of mine fit any longer. I told the sales girl what size I was wearing and that I thought I'd need a few sizes smaller. She came back with 27's which translates to a size 6! I have NEVER been that small. The closest I ever got was a 9/10 ... Needless to say I cried. Thanks for asking.
