My initial goal was to get to the weight I was when I started college, 158lbs. I'm getting there. Two years ago today a photo was taken of me in a bikini (see my profile). I was 5lbs lighter there than I am today...but today I have collarbones, a smaller waist and more definition in my arms, back and legs.
Definite NSV. I might be heavier but I'm in better shape and I reckon I'm fitter. Its now not all about getting "back" that body.3 -
Actually got up and worked out during the baby's nap even though I really didn't want to.1

I finally *feel* smaller. I don't feel like I take up as much space as I did 71lbs ago.3

I went grocery shopping today, and I've been feeling sort of emotional-eating prone and snacky as of late, but as I was reaching for the classic junk food, I remembered how I felt last time I ate too much junk food, and decided not to buy it. Yay! It felt like an easy decision for the first time in a long time. then I decided to go for a run in spite of the wind storm going on outside (it was rough to run uphill against the wind). Yay!
Way to go I Love this one.0 -
Ran into a couple of guys that are executives where I retired from. We'd all been there for 20+ years so everyone knew each other pretty well.
We hadn't seen each other for a year or so. The one fellow saw me and sucked his belly in as I shook his hand. He commented "your looking good". The other fellow said hi, but his face said he had no idea who I was . As we passed I heard him ask "who was that"?
I saw the look on his face as he was told, he showed amazement with my new look.5 -
Taking a few full body pictures and actually liking the way it looks. I still have a long way to go, but I have also come so far. I didn't have to try taking the picture dozens of times, in different lights or angles - the first one I liked!1

Today just hasn't been my day. I woke up with horrible cramps (thank you TOM), left the house without my fitbit or my lunch, and then got to work only to realize that I forgot my sweatpants for my ballet class tonight. My first thought was, "That's okay. I'm just going to skip it." Now on my lunch break, I just ran out to get a pair of pants.
Then for lunch, I was considering a delicious-looking, calorie-packed Italian sandwich from the store. Then I thought to myself that I went through all the trouble of getting pants for my class, did I really want to throw my calories off for the day by eating the giant sandwich? Nope! I grabbed a soup and salad (both for well under half the calories of the sandwich!).
My day is now much better!4 -
After losing 50 lbs., I finally had the confidence to join a chorus and now I sing and perform in front of others. It's something I've been wanting to do for years.2

Hmmm I was pretty stoked to get the 60lb dumbbells for 10 reps on flat bench.0

I just started a new job and the HR woman was explaining the health requirements necessary to receive a "healthy living" discount on my insurance costs. She says that one of the main components is to have a healthy BMI, then she glances me up and down and says "it doesn't look like that should be an issue for you." Woohoo!! I'm technically still 12 lbs from a healthy BMI, but I've already lost 32 and I'll take the NSV that someone assumes from looking at me that I'm a healthy weight.3

Last night my husband told me that my butt was starting to get some shape to it. It made me more happy knowing he was looking .5

Was dressing for a funeral and my old suit was ridiculous looking. The only other dark suit in the house was my sons Jr year prom suit. Size 40 slim cut. (Old suit was a 50).
Anyway my sons suit fit and felt amazing.
Started 243 now 179.7 -
I just bought a new, smaller belt!1

I went back to the gym about 3 months ago. Then, I struggled to do 3 sets of 5 pullups on the assisted machine, with the maximum assist of 175. I've gone on and off that exercise in the meantime, but yesterday did it on the same machine for the first time in a while.
It's tough, but I can do 4 sets of 5 with good form, with only 145 pounds of assist.
One of my goals is to do an unassisted pullup, for the first time in my life, before this journey is over.2 -
My coworker told me my tight leggings were falling down!
So yesterday I bought a beautiful shimmery jumpsuit (!) to celebrate. (I'm 6')2 -
Just had my semi-annual diabetes checkup. Doc dropped one of my three medications and cut another one in half!4

I had TWO today! My belt is now one notch tighter! Wahoo! And a vendor brought donuts into the office today. The BEST donuts. Freshly made, still warm, and my favorite - glazed! I resisted and ate my nonfat greek yogurt instead! They are still sitting at my desk and I haven't touched them!0
