First day sticking to calorie goals after two weeks of visitors and festive fare. Very happy! My lentil dinner was actually delicious...0

Refrained from second helpings at lunch (even though I really wanted it).0
-
I made my breakfast, lunch and snack to take with me to work. I find when I do this it is so much easier to stick to my goals for the day.0

I've stayed in my calorie range for the day! That's quite the accomplishment because I never do. Now it'll be a real accomplishment as long as I stay away from the late night snacks & tv0

Makes me really grateful of the fact that I only drink water anyway.

I ran more than I walked in the treadmill today!! I realized I was going at too fast a pace so I bumped my speed down. I'm feeling super pumped about my cardio days now!!0

I thought of bunch of excuses of why I should just hit the drive thru rather than make something at home. It's late... I won't get the fries... Everyone else has already eaten... But I didn't stop. I drove myself home and made a dinner that was within my calorie allowance. It doesn't seem like much but that was a big step towards changing my habits. I always used to choose convenience over nutrition. Kind of proud of myself tonight!
This is huge!! It's been really hard for me to cut out the fast food! We've cut it down to just weekends but I know I can still do better.0 -

Way to make the best of a bad situation!

I made it through a work catered lunch and kept myself in my calorie goal. I noticed I don't crave heavy big meals. My eyes finally know what a proper portion size is...not what my stomach tells me lol That's a big step for me0

Failed to set my alarm clock for this morning and didn't get my exercise in. Thought it would fudge up my whole day and cause me to overeat. Stayed within my calorie goal and snuck in some light yoga tonight instead. Going to bed very happy with my day.0

I'm getting much better at saying no to food when I'm not really hungry and I'm just sitting around on the computer.0

I upped my lighter weights from 3 pounds to 4 pounds at the gym today0

I was finally able to exercise after over a week of fighting off a horrible virus. Even though I couldn't do much before my body became exhausted I'm excited that I'm getting back on track!0
