Small Victories

No victories today, I haven't even had breakfast yet. But one that's similar to OPs from a few months back.
The company bought cupcakes for everyone, I went into the break room and grabbed one, as I was walking back to my desk I realized what I'd done and gave it to someone else instead. Small victories.0 -
Nice victory for you. When I see food I don't need to eat,try to ask myself how that slice of pie,piece of cake,etc will look added to my hips or belly?
Always in back of my mind is realizing I wouldn't need MFP if I had listened to myself long ago.0 -
Today I FELT like going for a walk AFTER my workout. I am gaining energy finally and my clothes are beginning to get loose!0

I bought a long navy lace/beaded gown online to wear to either a wedding and/or holiday party last year. I looked like a stuffed sausage in it. I tried it on again and it looks great. Too bad I have nowhere to wear it. I'm guessing/hoping it will be too big to wear at the next holiday party.0

I like celebrating small victories; it helps with positive self talk and positive reinforcement.What a great post. My small victory was not eating the entire Cadbury chocolate bar, but only having 3 pieces.0

My small victory is that I have not done any middle of the night snacking in quite a while. Last night was soooo rough and coming up with enough will power to not have a late night snack is a big little victory for me.
Congratulations, I struggle with that too.0 -
Wifey and I made two loaves of zucchini bread and one tray of muffins. We literally split one muffin, saved two for later, and gave the rest to our neighbors. That's our version of will power.
Haha, If I can't be skinny let me bake for my neighbors so they won't be either. :-) Love it!0 -
Running 5 sub-8 minute miles this morning!0

Small victory today; went to Sam's today and DID NOT use the mobility cart to get around. Walked around Sam's for 45 minutes and felt great doing it!!!!!! (Two months ago I was walking with a cane)0

My small victory was making the effort to plan a social event in a way that would not interfere with the week gym schedule I made for myself on Sunday!0

Good for you! At this point in my life style change journey I find its easier to not buy it at all then to only eat a small amount! I look forward to being able to have the self control to limit sweets and not just avoid them0 -
I turned down ice cream.0

Way to walk away from the donuts!
My small victory today?
150 consecutive days of logging on to and tracking every bite of food I've eaten. Yeah for consistency!0 -

Whoopie! That's great!
I'm hoping I will be able to go off blood pressure medicine after I lose a bit more weight.0 -
I have three:happy:
1. avoided the tiny yummy one-bite cupcakes at work
2. ran my fastest ever speed for an extended time on the treadmill...6.2mph
3. held plank for 80 seconds0 -
Small victory for today? Went to the gym after work again. Got that feeling like I didn't want to - told myself "You know you have to. Besides, as soon as you get to the parking lot of the gym, you'll go in and have a good time." It was 3AM. Can't do it tonight though because of an early meeting.
Second small victory of the day? I'm kinda pissed about that early meeting interfering with my schedule. Sheez!0
