My kids have been sick, I've been sick, haven't been eating well or exercising for almost two weeks. Today, despite a much later start than planned, I managed to get myself to the gym for a 15 minute work out before getting my big kid from preschool. So many chances to make excuses not to go, but I didn't take any of them!1

Went running (I use that word loosely) last night for first time since my son was born (9 months ago) Ran 4km in 28 mins, no stopping. It was cold, windy and dark. I had a pile of corrections to face when I got home (school teacher), a kitchen to clean and lunches to prepare for 3 school going kids- and I did it all. NSV- am itching to get out running again.
By the way- this is my favourite thread ever, all your contributions are just great!7 -

Exactly this!

I was sitting at my desk feeling sleepy. The old me would have taken my lunch break in the car and taken a nap. The new me went and walked around the parking lot for 15 minutes. That's what you call a 'brisk' walk!1

Does it count as a non-scale victory if you're not the one stepping on the scale?
My boyfriend stepped on the scale today which he never does. I think he's getting inspired by my (slowly getting there) success!3 -
I have been sticking to my plan of 30 very healthy days for eight days now. Yesterday, when we had a good bye dinner for a close friend whose leaving uni, I stuck to that one small bowl with chocolate mousse, and though I was tempted to have more (chocolate is my weakness) I didn't.
And I had the weirdest realisation in the gym today. My flat mates are all skinnier than I am, and I've thought that there was a big difference. One of them has decided to take up working out (which I'm thrilled about!) and tagged along. As we were standing in front of the mirror, I had to do a double take. I'm bigger than her - by almost nothing. My legs are a bit bigger, but that's mainly muscle. The stomach that bothers me is actually not there. When did this happen?5 -
I have logged for the past 101 days! I am so proud of myself!
Also, I am squatting using a 25kg barbell, benching at 35kg, shoulder pressing using 17.5kg barbell and I'm up to 1.6km of running! 101 days ago, I could barley run 800m, benching at 15kg, shoulder pressing using 5kg dumbbells, and I was squatting with a 10kg bar. My husband keeps on telling me how much I have toned up. I just wished i took a photo at day 0 so I could compare.
Unfortunately, I'm going through a plateau at the moment, but I'm not letting that get to me - just continue what I am doing and it will shift!0 -
Today I was able to zip up a skirt I couldn't fit into a month ago. Yay! I didn't think I would get the chance to wear it before the end of winter and now I will - tomorrow! Now I need to dig out a pair of jeans from the back of the wardrobe as my next 'goal' item to fit into

I've started exercising again I feel SO much better when I do. I find that eating healthier and less comes a lot easier to me then going out and getting active, but the combination of the two just makes me feel ten times better. 1

I have had the same belt for the last 10 years, and always buckle on the first or second hole. Today, I couldn't believe it when i buckled on the last hole! Time for a new belt!0

Guess what I measured today???
31.4% !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm over the moon!!!! Now onto my next goal - 30 % !!!!!!!!

Had calories left, and chose cashew nuts over a chocolate bar! Finally feels like my brain is getting the message!2

We had a brunch potluck at work yesterday. Half the items there were chocolate cakes, cinnamon pastries, donuts, etc. I stuck to my fruit, 2 tiny sausage balls, and a small spoonful of cheese grits! And after the meeting, everyone went back for more for lunch, but I just went to my desk and had my homemade chicken soup! And I'm only 4 days into this...2

I tied my shoes standing up, balancing on one leg and didn't even think about it...

So excited! I've finally dropped a pant size - almost 10kgs and 7 months later. I was so excited when I did up a pair of 12s I did a goofy dance in the changing room!0

I was shopping at a thrift store yesterday for some inexpensive jeans as I transition down in sizes and I stumbled across a pair I had donated!! Felt good to see how far I had come!
