    My best one of the week well so far...

    About 2 weeks ago I went into the local Mcy d's and all the older gentlemen stopped talking and watched walk all the way across the room. Fast forward to this week...

    Convo between my fiancé and I. I always ask him if whatever I am wearing looks ok. He said, you better not be going to Mcy d's. I asked why and he said, some old man is going to have a heart attack!

    SCORE!!!!! Apparently the squats, lunges and frogs are paying off.

    Being able to tie a towel around myself. My not so great NSV is that I officially have no pants that fit. They all fall as I move to do anything. Can't do any shopping until tax returns come back. I have ONE skirt that fits and it is WAYY too cold for that!

    So proud of everyone!!!

    My NSV (not having many scale ones at the mo' :grumble: ) is that I've cut sugar out of my tea! Completely - this time last year i was having 4! Spoons in one cup! Now as of last week I'm a no sugar tea drinker!

    Now just to find an alternative to low sugar chocolate!

    Try a thrift shop or consignment store to find bargains, especially when you might not yet be at your goal.

    Currently wearing a pair of jeans I put away for "someday" when I lost the weight. Apparently today is someday :wink:

    My skin has cleared up so much the last 2 weeks. I don't know if it is the fact that I have been eating better or because I am forcing myself to take the extra 3 or 4 minutes a night when I am exhausted to take off makeup or a combination of both, but the acne problems that I have had the last 3 months are gone. Totally worth the daily logging and eating healthy for that alone.

    These are really inspiring to read!

    My NSV of the week was that I finally got up the nerve to get a personal trainer and learn how to use the weights area at my gym. I was nervous, but I did it anyways! I rock! :)

    Since I moved into my new flat, there's a big mirror right in front of the shower-bath that relentlessly shows every bit of flab one could possibly imagine on a naked body. It's truly ruthless.
    Today after my run, I found I didn't have to turn away from my reflection when I reached to get some shampoo.

    During my workout this morning I started to realize how much better I am getting at doing a plank. And I can feel my abs getting stronger.

    It was -4 degrees here in NY I really didn't want to go to the gym, I was sore and lethargic but I forced myself to go. Every rep was a struggle but I got through it and went beyond my normal workout. These are the days that prove to me that I have really changed

    It snowed here in the greater Austin, TX area and I also did NOT want to work out. I did my circuit and finished strong and thought "I'm going to do it again." And I DID!

    Also, I wore size 18 slacks to my interview this morning and NEEDED my belt to keep them up. Not just for looks anymore you piece of leather! :laugh:

    Nothing too big but when I spend time with my OH (once a fortnight for the weekend as we live away from each other) we pig out on takeaways, chocolate, crisps, pop etc but since Thursday I have eaten within my 1500 calorie range due to planning our meals ahead!! Feel so proud of us for doing this :) No takeaways and just careful treats that ensure I keep within my calorie goal!

    :happy: I have two,

    1) I went to the gym twice a day for five days in a row

    2) I did deadlifts. I have had a fear of them because of an old lower back injury, not anymore! :happy:

    Not sure if those are NSV but they are a victory for me.

    Back to breaking 4.0 mile per hour walks for miles... a mere seven weeks after open heart surgery.

    This is awesome!!

    For my first week back at it I got in 4 workouts, I thought I had fallen off when I missed 2 days. I have this thing that if I can't work out for an hour it's not worth it. Yesterday I was running late so I just didn't go....today I was running late but I WENT ANYWAY. That's huge for me. Breaking down mental barriers.

    And my coworker told me she wishes she could be like me. She wants to lose weight too but doesn't know where to start. That felt good. It doesn't show at all yet but she still noticed me making better choices. :bigsmile:
