    I did a set of squats with the free weight bar not the machine! It was only the bar.. but it's JUST the beginning, I'd like to see how much I will be able to squat in the coming weeks.

    Today i was able to run 2 miles in 26 minutes without stopping. First time ever doing that. And bonus: I didn't feel like I was about to die at the end. I think my max HR was about 185!

    This is my second day on this site, tracking my food and exersise - I already lost 2 lbs. I somehow found motivation to reduce my junk food intake, which was insane. My goal (in addition to losing 20 lbs) is to get to a stage when I can report zero junk food. Have not been able to do that in many year!

    I enrolled in a training program for vet techs. Age 30 (almost 31) and going back to school next month!

    I also helped a disabled old lady behind me at checkout today. She was glad to have someone lift her groceries onto the belt for her, and I just felt like I did awesome things today.

    I was in a McDonald's (not my choice but majority won), I LOVE McDonald's cheeseburgers, and I still ate something reasonable, filling, and under 400 calories. I don't even regret it, their wraps are tasty.

    And I'm still going to do my 60 minutes of cardio!

    I'm proud that I'm getting stronger. During my ChaLEAN Extreme workout I had to increase the dumbbells for my bicep curls from 12.5 to 15 pounds, because the 12.5 pound ones felt too light.

    I am super thrilled at the cals burnt to a crisp, the super sweat, the beet red face I get from manicuring my lawn to the ultra max. I LOVE it, such hard work for me and such a beautiful and lovely look of my yard--BOOM!

    I'm in Chile and can at least speak Spanish well enough to please the shopkeepers who don't have to struggle with their own English.

    I passed on a sample of cake at the grocery store. Small but also a victory for me. :)

    I am proud of myself today because I am officially into the 140's today - i haven't seen 140 in 4 years! I was 180 when I started in dec (I waited until my son started solids at 9mo before trying to lose weight bc i am breastfeeding) and today i was 148.4!
