    I'm under 300 pounds as of this morning for the first time since I had my daughter in 2005! Also, I was way under my calories today, so I was able to splurge on pizza and some ice cream. Where as previously I would have eaten the whole pint, today I did not, so that's pretty great!

    My victory was that I went to a colleague's thesis proposal today & didn't eat the offered goodies (which included some chai concoction and some delicious looking shortbread with chocolate drizzle). I almost always end up giving in when there's free food involved, but not today! Now I have lots of leftover calories and will probably get to have some ice cream and cookies tonight. :smiley:

    Put off working out all day, but made myself hop on the elliptical this evening. Got ten mins in and thought, I don't want to do 30 full mins. I'm just going to push until 20. Got to 20 mins and thought, I can push to 25. That will put me at 5 miles. At 25 mins I said, Hey, I can do 30. At 30 mins, I put it on a lower resistance, dropped the speed by 2mph and kept cruising. I stopped at 45 mins and 8.6 miles.

    I went to the movies and took my own popcorn! Thank goodness for Jiffy 100 calorie packs.

    I didn't eat that whole 2 lb box of chocolate I got for Valentine's Day.

    Last night, I was doing push ups and trying extra hard at my form/doing them all on my toes at the gym. Someone looked over and told me, "Those look good!" I was so proud.

    Did kettlebell and Kickboxing class. Always feel exhausted but triumphant after. Sadly it was followed by snow shoveling!

    I went to the gym and actually exercised today.

    The past two days it was so cold in the gym, I just couldn't make myself do anything.... No really I was just lazy. I actually went to the gym and played around on my phone for two days since no one else was there. I spent an hour hyping/warming myself up for barbell squats that never happened.

    I had a bad week last week, and today I've been eating super clean so far. Only fruits, veggies and lean protein :)

    I was actually ok with not losing this week when I got on the scale because I knew that I had a couple bad days. So instead of giving up per usual, I patted myself on the back for not gaining.

    I upped my hula hoop workout routine by 5 minutes yesterday and today I ordered a small latte with half sugar instead of a medium! Little steps=changes for life.

    I had to buy a new belt, why? Because it was getting to big for me. I remember a day a while back when i had to do it for the complete opposite reason.

    My gym doesn't open until 8 on Saturday mornings, but I start work at 9. So today I was one of those people impatiently waiting outside for them to open the doors so I could get a workout in. I got in a half hour of cardio and even had time to hit a couple weight machines before heading to work.

    I did a treadmill circuit and voluntarily did 1 minute sprints even though I hate running more than anything else.

    Finished my abs workout even though I wanted to quit. I hate them.

    I ran today. I also ate 250 calories worth of V-day chocolate, but my exercise and pre-logged food are keeping me within calorie goals! AND did I mention, I RAN??

    We ate at the buffet for our Valentine's Day dinner and I ordered a steak with no salt, had salad and a small dish of soft serve ice cream. I left satisfied and so proud of myself for not blowing my calories just because it was a special occasion. :)
