What's made you feel proud of yourself today?

I kept my temper when dealing with a hateful coworker, and even accomplished what I needed to with her. : ). Huge accomplishment, because I wanted to snap back at her and walk away!

Squeeee

I forced myself to work out today. I wasn't feeling it in the beginning, but I managed to pick up the pace halfway through and finish strong.

The maintenance guy came to my office today with a huge bowl full of candy...including peanut butter cups (my favorite). He forced me to take whoppers, which I promptly put in my purse and did not eat. I'll give them to my hubby at his kickball game today. Didn't give in to temptation!

My co-workers went for Chicago style pizza for lunch and I declined the offer for a little gym time. Old me would have been right there with them stuffing my face until I couldn't move!

I'm just back from my third run this week!
I haven't run regularly since late June and I'm really determined to keep it up over the school year because it definitely helps my stress levels

Today's Met Con was 40 push ups, 40 ball slams, 40 jump squats and 40 v sit ups in 7:40. Time didn't matter, the fact that I did them all is what made proud of myself!!

I Walked on the treadmill two days in a row.

congrats to everyone on their achievements!! I guess mine this week is that I have gone almost 6 days now without binging. 4 weeks ago brought on an emotional upset in my life and it triggered binges big time...giving me a gain of 23 pounds... this morning, with getting myself back in line and no binging for 5 1/2 days... I have 11 of those 23 pounds off....and too I am seeking help with my BED so I wont rely on food for emotional times.

Today I did some mini aerobics and got my heart pumping - I was so fed up with just hobbling around on crutches, and I really do miss my aqua aerobics and my walking.

If I can only do three or four mini sessions like that every day and gradually increase the time I'll be happy as I know at least I'm trying!

OK, it wasn't much, I didn't want to start my foot throbbing or pull my stitches, but this time a year or so ago I would have been quite content to just sit on the sofa stuffing my face, so I'm proud of myself today that I made the effort, albeit a small one!

I did the entire day 2 of C25K

I just logged my proud moment. A few months ago, I could only run for a couple minutes. I progressed. 8 minutes was a hurdle. I rejoiced when I got to 12... 15.... 20.... 30....

Well, this morning, I ran for about 50 minutes, and I ran over 4 miles (4.77 miles total, but I walked the first .35).

I'm pretty proud of myself. Especially since I haven't been able to do any full on running lately (I've had a change of schedule and I have my baby with me, and we're not home, so it's on the other side of the county that we spend our days). I've been doing intervals because jogging with him in the stroller is so much tougher!!

That I was at the gym at 5:30am and had enough energy to go downtown with friends until midnight. Not bad for 40;)

Second day without chocolate! (Major achievement for someone who would eat at least 1000g of chocolate in some form DAILY.)

kerrymh

haven't been running all summer..and skipped a 5k race last night..But I went for 3k around my neighbourhood this morning..it felt great! I'm back baby.

I woke up today feeling like crap--and an hour later, I STILL feel like crap....no energy at all, half dead etc.

BUT... I am on my way to work out at the gym anyway. Hopefully, the moving around will help far more than just sitting on the couch drinking tea, wrapped in a blanket moaning about how I don't feel so hot.

I am not known for my perseverance :laugh: so this is a big accomplishment for me.

Second day without chocolate! (Major achievement for someone who would eat at least 1000g of chocolate in some form DAILY.)

I'm a chocoholic. I have learned to limit it to 2-3 pieces (not bars) per day. Some days I manage to skip it, but that took awhile of restricted access before I got to that point. Recently I challenged myself to 7 days without chocolate. I never planned to give it up and I didn't but I wanted to prove to myself I can increase the amount of time between servings just as well as I managed to decrease the portion size (used to be about a bag of chocolate every 2 days).

Woke up this morning and the scales told me I was at 184 lbs, and I was able to put on these new pants that are a size 34" comfortably, it was only a few months that I was barely able to fit in a size 36".

it was a year ago when I was at 296 lbs, and wore pants at the size of 46"

and for breakfast this morning, my roommates brought a bunch of breakfast sandwiches and hash brown bites from burger king, I turned it all down and just made oatmeal with almond milk, this was something I was not able to do before.

That I refuse to be around people that dont give a humming bird about me.. pressing on.. leaving behind those who have hurt me.. dusting off and shaking off the games of life and the people that come with that package.. I should have checked the curtain on that price is right game before I gambled with my heart LOL :drinker:
