    Awesome workout today! Worked on deadlifts and tested my kettle bell press. I was able to get 270 up, but wasn't able to lock out. Not sure when I got the bar slightly in front of me, but at the top I started leaning forward and had to set it down. However, I now know I can get it up, and will do it right on Thursday, so I can call it a new PR. That's ok, though because I still got a PR with my kettle bell military press. I was able to press a 20 kg (44 lb) bell 3 times on the right, and 5 times on the left! (And that was after doing sets of 1 and 2 on both sides.)

    when I completed the diary for today I was feeling really low since I was still hungry and the projected weight loss was so-so. then I decided to take a look at my before photo, I couldn't believe what I saw when I compared the two people (I have the fat kid syndrome & I can't quite believe the physical changes). so, I went further and put on the same outfit as in the before photo & took a snap shot, just so I could check my eyes weren't deceiving me - nope, these 10 kg were apparent :) the visual motivated me to go on the stationary bike for 50 mins and now I have calories to spare for an after dinner snack! woohoo! :smiley:

    I took care of me today after my stressful weekend. No homework, no carb loading, lots of water and calling it a night early.

    I was not loosing weight on 1200 calories because I would always have around 200 unnecessary calories I would consume and not log (1400 being my maintenance since I'm 5'1 short and 110lbs, trying to loose 5lbs)

    I swam the furthest I've ever swam this morning - 70 lengths which is just over a mile. When I started, I couldn't do more than 40 lengths.

    I ate exactly ONE Little Debbie snack (which fit into my daily calorie goal). And stopped. I didn't eat another. I didn't binge. I just stopped. For the first time in my life, one was ENOUGH.

    This morning while looking in the mirror I discovered I had a waist. Not just one block of body but an actual waist with curves and everything. >.> Sounds weird but I did a little dance.

    2nd day back to regular exercise after a break. Did leg day, then ran 3 miles. Legs were so tired, I was so tired (thank you Daylight Saving Time), but I finished.

    One of my pups had her regular vet checkup this morning and we usually get a biscuit at the Mcd's next door after we're done (yes for her too LOL) and I turned the other way and headed home instead....even though I was hungry.

    The dog has lost 7 lbs and is normal weight now. I guess weighing and logging my food is affecting the zoo as well LOL.

    I realized that (despite a small gain for several reasons) 21 lbs lost has given space between my arms and sides when I put my arms down/against my sides. XD

    I switched my store bought hair and skin care products with organic, homemade counterparts. I mixed them all myself!! I know exactly what's in them!

    After eating my supper I got up and put my plate in the dishwasher instead of putting seconds on my plate. I wasn't hungry i just wanted more for the taste of the food. Then I rejoined my husband and daughters while they finished their meals. Usually I just add more food to my plate.

    I went to make hot chips in the oven and it weighed something like 600 grams, so I put one potato back, and now it's down to about 360 grams, so is way less calories.

    I ate within my calorie range & went to bed an 1hr early last night.

    This is so inspirational!
