    Was dragging a bit today, but the ice melted off the roads and I took my bike out for a short ride anyway. Now I feel so much better!

    Been snowed in with the 5 kids (and their v-day candy) for days. Haven't gone insane, or stole any sweets when they weren't looking.

    Thinking about having sausage and chips (fries) for dinner the whole way home (which would involve a lot of bread, cheese and mayo), and deciding to stay good at the last minute and having fish and salad :)

    My yoga class was cancelled so I went to a bootcamp class instead!

    I didn't get upset when I didn't lose weight and went over my calories. Just started fresh today instead of letting it deter me

    I had attended a birthday lunch with a group of co-workers -Indian buffet. For once I managed to eat sensibly and stay on track. Chose healthiest options, ate slowly and had very small portions. When I was tempted to hit the buffet for more I made myself sip water and wait a few mins. It worked - I was satiated and proud of my ability to eat out and not go crazy!!

    I had two small victories today, but in my eyes they were huge, haha. Woke up at 6 am and walked two miles. Then tonight, family ate ice cream and I didn't. Whoop!

    I smelled the Tim Horton's pastries and then I bought a fruit cup instead.

    I only had 1 thin mint when some one left a box at work. Just 1 and not 1 whole sleeve. Oh yeah and I even logged it

    I resisted the craving for mcdonalds. Chicken nuggets fries and a coke to be exact. As I passed the restaurant i felt very proud of myself. It's all about the little victories!

    I had to bake a cake today for a function and I didn't eat gobs and gobs of frosting while I was decorating the cake.

    Today was my daughters once a month pizza day, I decided to just order a chicken & bacon salad for myself. They threw in a free garlic bread, which is something I would normally inhale, but the neighbourhood birds got it instead :smile:

    I rested my hand on my thigh and realized I couldn't feel any cellulite.

    I am SO proud of myself for not drinking alcohol on "exercise days". Last night after circuit training the group went for dinner. I ordered an alcohol-free Weissbier. When you consider that my earlier nickname was The Weissbier Queen, that is some achievement! I swear that the decrease in alcohol is the main reason behind losing 22kg so far - with 8kg to go. Well done to everyone for getting over their demons!

    I was walking on the treadmill and for the last two minutes I jogged. Doesn't sound like much but I've never been able to jog or run at all!

    I saw the thread title and came on here to say exactly the same as you! I joined the gym three weeks ago and today was doing my normal ten minutes on the treadmill and decided to try for a one minute jog. It was easier than I thought and I managed to do two minutes. It absolutely made my day :smile:

    That was me ten days ago ... today I jogged 9 minutes on the treadmill SO PROUD!! :)

    And today I have managed 15 minutes and done a whole mile :smiley: Ridiculously slowly but I don't care, I'm chuffed to bits :smile:

    Strange victory: we went out for dinner last night at a little casual pub that serves all kinds of sandwiches, including a club on croissant, which is my favorite. I searched for something healthier with less calories but knew I would be disappointed. So ... I just went ahead and ordered what I wanted but only ate half of it. I put half in a box before I even started. I didn't feel cheated and the calories - while high - weren't crazy high. I can't say I didn't eye that box a few times, though. ;) One of my boys will be happy today with the leftover.

    Keep going! That was me a few months ago and I remember the day I ran a full 20 minutes I broke down and cried! Are you using any running app? I loved my "Get Running App". I ran my first 5K in December and will run a four miler in April.
