    Today, i am most proud of myself for not getting down about this week's one pound gain. Usually I would be recounting every lil hing I did wrong (like fair food) but today i recognized that I'm still 51 lbs lighter than I used to be!

    Today, I am most grateful for being able to afford fitness magazine, was really inspired by some articles in there while reading!

    Today, I'm most proud of myself for not drinking a single can of mountain dew for one whole week! That is HUGE for me!

    Today, I'm most proud of myself for not giving up yesterday after binging and still taking the time to do 30DS level 2 even though it was midnight.

    and

    Today, I am most grateful for the support that I receive from MFP members =) Without this website, I would not have lost this weight so far.

    Today I am most proud of myself for getting off my butt and taking the kids swimming. They keep asking me, and I keep saying i'm too busy. I must make more of an effort to keep them interested in sport and exercise.

    Today I am most grateful for my husband cooking my tea when I couldn't be bothered. If it wasn't for him, i'd have suggested a take-away. I have only lost 3lbs so far, so I'm really grateful for him keeping me on the right track.

  • Today, I'm most proud of myself for not b*tching out my brother even though i'm in a really PMSy mood. i even managed to be nice to him!

    and

    Today, I am most grateful for my best friend. without her i would be lost with no one to take my side in anything and no one to listen to my angry b*tching about nothing. And without her i would have no one to be able to stand me when i'm at my happiest either, bouncing and hyper and annoyingly optimistic. my soul sister! <3

    Today, I am most proud of myself for packing my lunch and putting veggies AND fruit in it!

    Today, I am most grateful for MFP because not only does it help me stay on track, but it's also entertaining me through a LONG and BORING day of work! Love to read blogs when bored! Especially blogs about health, fitness, and weight loss...

    Today, I'm most proud of myself for being the type of person who gets back on the wagon no matter what. No matter how naughty I may be every once in a while or how bad my stupid knee acts up, I still keep at it and never quit. I'm about to hit 205 days on MFP any day now.

    Today, I'm most grateful that I threw a pair of pants on this morning that actually fit loosely for the first time in recent memory. I'm still shrinking. On that note, I'm also grateful for my dessicated thyroid and my diuretic, which both make it possible for the hard work I put into my weight loss to pay off.

    Today I am most proud of myself for saying no to doughnuts even though the box was on my table in class and I was feeling like celebrating cranking out all A's for midterms in a 17 credit semester.

    Today, and every day, I am thankful for my husband and children and their continued support on my 'Let's Focus on Me' journey. Their selflessness brings me to tears. :)

    Today I'm most proud that I walked on my treadmill even though my calves were still sore from the few step ups and leg lifts I did yesterday.

    And...

    I accidentally submitted it before I was ready...oops!

    Today I am also grateful for

    **Knowledge** The knowledge to change our bodies. The knowledge to know what to eat and how much to eat. How to keep ourselves healthy. How to work certain muscles to get great results. There are so many forms and sources of knowledge about fitness, nutrition and health. I am thankful that we have access to them all and can use them to change our lives!
