    When I started exercising I could not run for longer than 2 minutes at a time. Today at the gym, I ran for 10 minutes even after fast pace walking for 45 minutes. I am so very proud of myself. I have also haven't given up even though I don't see any changes in the mirror. I just keep telling myself that it took thirteen years to put it on and it will take some time to get it off. I am getting healthy and setting a great example for my four children.

    P.S. I also haven't has a cigerette since September 28, 2012. Whoo, Whoo!!!:laugh:

    Upped my treadmill time from 30 to 40 minutes and did the whole time without needing a break -- at an average 3.2 mph.

    I swept my grandfather's house. We are so spoiled with vacuums now so I decided to work on my upper body and cardio while I visited my papa!. Great thread to start thank you.

    Went on a nice little hike, and felt so good about it that I walked home, which took an extra hour. And even though I killed hundreds of calories, I didn't resort to eating junk.

    My granddaughter was here visiting, usually a dangerous time for overeating. But instead of taking her for McDonalds, I took her to Walmart and let her get a frozen dinner, which is what my husband and I usually do for supper. Instead of cookies, I bought a bag of strawberries for desert, which she loved.

    Today, I made her some chicken nachos and instead of making myself some as well, I used the chicken and made myself a salad. We had a nice meal together and I stayed in my calorie range.

    I hit triple digits for my protein intake today. I almost hit my goal but I just couldn't eat anymore. Protein is very filling, I'm considering on buying some powder so I can mix it with recipes and shakes. Just to make it easier to add more protein without having to eat so much. (not that I mind eating but since I woke up later today than usual, I didn't have as much time to eat).

    I took grapes into work with me so I won't be tempted to buy chocolate as a snack.

    I ate more veggies than anything else today. I don't like vegetables, and this is the first bag of frozen veggies I've ever bought for any reason other than to use as an ice pack. I also bought MORE vegetables, and skipped the cookie aisle in favor of unsweetened frozen strawberries and mango chunks (would prefer fresh, but I want to be able to have them as a once-in-awhile thing, without them going bad).
