    What a great idea for a thread! I know it's easier for me to see the negative than the positive. Thank you for this!

    1. Did pretty well in a killer 90 minute yoga class to start the day.
    2. Ate according to plan.
    3. Worked with my wife to get all the Christmas decorations put away (didn't fall off the ladder).
    4. Didn't let a phone call with a problem at work put me in a bad mood for the day.
    5. Had a romantic dinner and evening with my wife.

    Great idea!
    1) The weather was beautiful today. So nice that I got to take the kids outside to ride bikes and play catch!
    2) Got my hair done! Words cannot explain how good I feel about myself after a trim and color change.
    3) I found an excellent replacement for pasta (spaghetti squash) and my children loved it!
    4) I exercised, even though I didn't want to! (This is a big one for me because I can force myself to eat healthy, but working out....not so much.
    5) Curling up on the couch with my kiddos and my hubby. (This hasn't actually happened yet, but it is the immediate plan as soon as I finish up here!

    It's been a good day, and an especially nice evening:

    1. Got some wonderful one-on-one time with my 14-month-old daughter
    2. My 3-year-old fell asleep almost the instant her head hit the pillow. So sweet to listen to her breathe peacefully.
    3. After 3+ weeks of working out consistently, eating well, and logging on to MFP daily, I've started C25K tonight. Proud to have lost 9 pounds already.
    4. Finished one book in a riveting series today. Now that the kids are asleep and all is quiet, I've already downloaded the next to my Nook. Brain food!
    5. Going to sneak upstairs and cuddle with my wife now, who is already sound asleep, LOL!
  • 1. I went to the gym INSTEAD of going shopping; if I had gone shopping, I wouldve missed out on the gym.
    2. I ate very healthy today! (NO CHEATING!) and loved every bite.
    3. I am FINALLY letting go of the past. We live. We learn. We move on!
    4. I have received many positive comments/compliments from friends and family. Both have encouraged me to keep going and thats exactly what I'm doing.
    5. I feel good! I can taste victory and I'm working hard every day nomatter what to achieve what I want. I can envision THE REAL me.

    Got to listen to my husband play piano with a group of fabulous musicians.
    Cleaned the inside of the boat (we live aboard).
    Went on an unplanned 30 minute power walk with a friend when an opportunity presented itself.
    Took a one hour nap.
    Saved enough calories to have a cocktail this evening.

    1. My husband woke me up before he went to work and asked me if I would make him something to eat, which I did without my usual complaining because he woke me up at 7 am. I didn't even go back to bed after he left.

    2. I did not eat any of the cakes that are in my kitchen.

    3. I worked out today and pushed myself to do that extra 30 minutes.

    4. I took down all of my Christmas decor.

    5. I cleaned house.
