    Met a much younger and thinner friend at the gym and kept up with her cardio routine for an hour!

    Went to the gym on my lunch break today! And so far I have been very good with my diet.

    I almost had myself talked out of walking at lunch time. Glad I went.

    I'm proud of myself everyday I log into this dang site. I'm proud of myself for losing 80 lbs. I'm proud of myself for leg pressing 660. I'm proud of myself everyday I go to the gym. I'm proud of myself for dropping 4% BF in 3 months. I'm proud of myself for being 160 lbs of lean mass. I'm proud of the person I am, and how I treat other people. I'm proud of the woman I am, and who I've become. So like I said..I'm proud everyday o:)B)

    I played tag with my kids while waiting to line up for school. Other kids joined in but I was the only parent to get out there and play.

    Haha yes lol. I have been doing SL so I have worked up to it but since I hit 170 I have spent 2 workouts at each weight. Now only if my DL would come back as easily. I only got 165x3 today

    Hmm, it;s only 8:20am here, so that would be a nothing, yet. Except maybe getting up and not melting into a puddle.

    But yesterday, when I got off work with a headache, instead of going home to mope, I popped a couple of nurofen and went to the rink for an hour. And had a good practice too!

    I did 80 mins of walking outside and actually ate back some of my exercise calories. Seeing my calories go over my normal daily limit was quite significant (for me).

    I was feeling exhausted and took 1/2 day off from work. Laid on the couch and took a short nap. I needed to rest. I never do anything like this felt good.

    I got up at 6 and went to the gym, despite how nice my bed was. I'm also getting more endurance for my cardio.

    I had another day with no additional snacking other than what I had planned, so that's 8 days in a row! Yay!

    My children and I, whilst on our long daily walk, collected a load of rubbish (two bags full) as there is so much of it around and no-one around seems to care about the environment. Even my three-year old was joining in.

    We are going to take a couple of sacks with us every time we go for a walk now :smile:

    That's awesome! Way to set a good example for your kids!

    There are very few litter bugs on my trail. I leave the few bottles for a guy who comes around monthly to collect them. I pick up the sticks from the trail and prune the branches when they reach into the trail.

    I got up early and went to the gym and I am not a fan of getting up in the morning OR going to the gym. But I enjoyed it and felt great afterwards. Came home and got dinner in the crockpot before starting work. Stuck with my meal plan all day and came in right at my calorie goal for the day. That's a rare day for me. Now, just to stay motivated and away from sugar the rest of the night and I can call it a VERY successful day! Hooray!
