    I kept up with the Zumba instructor at last night's class. Every kick, turn and shimmy! Usually I have to pause for part of a song somewheres in the middle, and I phone it in for one or two at the end...but not last night!

    I *love* seeing everyone's NSVs!!

    A while ago I got some workout clothes at Salvation Army, including a stretchy tank with a racer back and built in shelf bra. I tried it on and Could Not Breathe. I'm wearing it today comfortably!

    I put on a shirt today that is a little clingy. I asked hubby if it seemed to fit better today and he agreed it did!

    My jeans are starting to look & feel baggy in the hips and thighs. They still fit ok, way more comfortably, in the waist but since I had my daughter that's where I hold most of my weight. I'm claiming that baggy butt as a victory! Smaller pants are in my near future!

    I had 2 victories today and 1 yesterday! i'm on fire!

    lol today I managed to jog 3 1/2 mins on c25k - not a lot but I wasnt joghing at all 2 weeks ago PLUS at the very end of my route is a big old hill. Normally on my walks I stop a few times on the hill to catch my breath but today I made it all the way up, after 30 mins of woggleing! I must be getting fitter.

    Yesterday my sister bought over a heap of clothes she is too small for. The 20 tops fit wonderfully (I was a size 26) and I can get my bum and thighs into a pair of 18 pants, although my belly is still too big, but oh my lord my thighs fit into an 18! lol.

    I've been able to influence some of my co-workers to get healthy. My office is 10 women. All but two are over over 200 pounds. A couple of us are over 300. (Well, I was until last week!) The two that are under 200, are not under by much. And they are both diabetic and have lost quite a bit of weight over the past couple of years. There are also a dozen or so therapists (speech, OT) that work with us. (I work in early intervention---birth to three).

    Anyway, we've talked about exercising before, but 2 weeks ago one of my friends did a Zumba class for us. As of today, all but one of my coworkers has been to at least one class. The one co-worker who hasn't come has serious knee issues and a rod in her leg. Two of the girls are over 60! 6 of the girls and two therapists have committed (as in paid $20) to continue coming to class.

    We are meeting twice a week (Monday and Friday). I'm hoping we can all get healthy together.

    I have not had a cigarette in 26 days and have still lost 7 lbs!!!!! My weight has really ballooned over the past year and I was really worried that it would just keep rising when I quit smoking but I have been able to control it so far and exercising is so much more enjoyable when you can breathe.

    Three non scale victories....
    I have not had any pop for 29 days, I use to be a four diet pepsi a day drinker.
    I made it thru my first Zumba class at the YMCA last night. I never stopped, other than to laugh when I totally could not get my feet and arms to go in sync with the instructor. I laughed at myself then got it together.
    Today my husband went to the YMCA. Normally I have just been walking and then throw in a lap or two of jogging. Today after about 4 warm up laps I started a run walk sequence of jog one walk two. I made two miles in 30 minutes.
    Combine last nights zumba and todays walk/jog, and my calves are not liking me. Just happy that I have made it this far into the year and my hubby and I have tracked everyday.

    I squeezed into some size 16 jeans today. They actually fit comfortably in the hips & thighs but my dang stomach... I have a little bit of a muffin top in the jeans. But I couldn't button them a month ago, so I'll take it!

    Totally vain, but my butt used to be big and flat. Now it is big and round. My butt has muscles now :) Working on smaller and round, but I'll take round over flat any day!!!

    My NSV is that I have lost 11.25 inches in the first month on MFP. I am so glad I measured when I started this. Just wish I had take a picture the first day. Will have the hubby take a picture tonight so that I have a one month in photo!
