Finally feel like I'm moving the right direction. Braved the wind 20 plus MPH and got three bike rides in over the weekend Friday 25.5 Saturday 19.5 and Sunday 20.5. Wanted to get more in yesterday but wind slowed me down. Did get 95 miles in last week and nearly to 200 for the year. Pretty decent considering weather we've had this year.
Made a small change today. Instead of keeping food at my desk I put it in a cabinet a few feet away so far it has helped with the mindless eating. I bring healthy choices each day fruit and veggies mostly but some days what i have for the whole day is gone by mid morning. Today mid morning I have only had one thing.27 -
A funny one. Last night when leaving church I grabbed my coat and headed home. A few minutes later I got a call that I had grabbed my much smaller Aunts coat and had put it on. Hadn't zipped it but had been able to get it on. got a good laugh when I went to trade back.23

Put on some cords this morning that I haven't been able to wear in over two years. Zipped them up and no muffin top, either! Go me!33

I competed in my favorite local 5K this weekend, and though I didn't PR, I beat my time from last year, so that was a win. My time was 33.55.6. They also have a strength competition there every year, and I decided to compete in that as well. It was 5 events, 2 minutes per event, with a one minute break between each event. As you can see, one of those events was a tire flip. I finished 4th out of 5 in my weight class, but what's really important is I had the courage to do it. It was a great workout, and lots of fun!

SO it was three years ago at the beginning of this month that I started my health and weightloss journey. I hadn't even joined MyFitnessPal at this point yet. But I was out every day walking two miles, then three miles, then I started running. Around the end of March 2015 is when I joined MFP so that anniversary is closing in. In that time I've lost 60 lbs, gotten off diabetes medication and so far I'm maintaining very well. I'm calling this my fitversary!

Bought a pair of jeans tonight and the size that I thought would fit, did and perfectly! The NSV is a shift in perception of my body image and realistic view of my size.

I didn't feel like walking briskly today. So I got out the bike! I still got in all my steps, but I needed the bike to also get my heart rate up for awhile.22

I ran a quarter mile last night without stopping to walk. It may not seem like much to some, but for me this is HUGE. I can't remember the last time in my life I've ever been able to sustain a run for that long. It was slow, but it was running, and I couldn't be more proud!48

My DH convinced me to order an elegant gown for an event on line. Using their size chart, I ordered a small. It arrived yesterday and looked soooooo tiny, I was sure it would need to be returned. Well it fit perfectly!
Last year I was wearing a L/XL everything and grateful I could find something that fit.32 -
I finished week 5 of the C25k last night - have tried this programme several times and have never got past week 2. Not only did i complete it, but about half way through, I found myself enjoying it.28

This morning I realized I can easily pull up my winter boots! They go up to just under my knees and it used to be a struggle to slide them up so I would let them bunch up which was uncomfortable. This morning they just slid right up! Yay smaller calves!27

Yeah. That's the problem with C25K. Next it'll be parkruns, then 10K races, thinking about a half marathon. It really is a terrible disease.
(Congrats)

Wearing pants that used to feel like they were sawing me in half in some kind of pants horror story... only to find that the pants have lost their teeth. Still snug, but their maw of death is more like a whimper of acknowledgment that they fit better.
Inward, I cry VICTORY!
Next up, I shall conquer the front line of pants I let myself outgrow (again).
I WILL GET YOU PANTS.55 -
F the scale! It lies way too much. Looking in the mirror is a much better indicator of fat loss and body composition!15

Lol for me it’s actually one of the worst. I can see it in progress pics but just looking in the mirror I look the same to me (at 100 lbs down so progress has definitely been made). Clothing fit however is really helpful for me

Went to the doctor the other day. They were able to use the small blood pressure cuff on me! Probably the first time in close to a decade.41

Completed a workout without feeling completely drained. It means I'm getting stronger.25

For last night's work out, I held an elbow plank for 30 seconds. It was hard, but I did not feel myself breaking form until about 28 seconds. A month ago 15 seconds was a struggle!28
