Thank you @countrycreek not too hard when I finally put my mind to it (thankfully my hubby having some high cholesterol worked out for me). We both changed the way we ate and gave up all the junk. Of course he does not have to watch the sugars and salt intake, but it works.
All the changes you have made show..keep inspiring us!2 -

The other part of me is just focusing on my successes these days, and not trying to add something to the mix that might cause me to fail (by not doing it!). I have been eating at a deficit for 8 days now, and making some headway in my invoice filing at work. I did order a new workout outfit on-line and it came today. None of my workout clothes were fitting, especially the bras, so I desperately needed something new. I haven't tried them on yet, because I am afraid they won't fit, or I won't like it. I never order clothes on-line!! My foot is still sore, but only slightly, so that is promising.
I have a hard keeping away from that all or nothing way of thinking. It's really is the baby steps .. that add up. WTG .. on your eating, I bet your new workout clothes will look great and make you feel good!
@countrycreek, yeah, "all or nothing" never works, yet some of us never learn! Speaking of learning, I have learned not to buy workout clothes on-line. The capris are too big, the bra needs to come with a personal assistant just to get it on and the tank, well, I might keep the tank, even though it is not the material I wanted. I live in a small town and I just don't have the time or energy to drive to the city right now, so I thought I would try on-line. Now I have to look up how to return things.
Yes.. its a hard leason to learn. Too bad.. your order didn't work for you! I to live in a small town and completely understand.

@Tracie_Lord, your new Fitbit is really getting a workout these days!! Look at all those active minutes!
I love it!!! you really need to invest its so good to monitor your progress
@Tracie_Lord, I do have a Fitbit, I have just taken it off while I am having my foot issues. I know full well I am sitting on my butt right now, and I didn't need a gadget reminding me of that!! Mine is a three year old Charge HR. I would like to upgrade when I decide to get back into moving. There was a group from here doing Fitbit Challenges. @cmhubbard92, is that still happening? Maybe Tracie, or anyone else with a Fitbit would like to join?
Yes.. I would join.1 -
I have a Fitbit Alta!2

Tracked: Yes

Exercise: Yes, 39 minutes c25k(week 3 day 1)
Somewhere in the middle of my c25k workout, I accidentally skipped through a walk session about 30 seconds after it startes(I was supposed to walk for 3 minutes), so I just continued and started running again. I decided after the last 3 minute walk, I was going to see how long I could run for without having to stop. I ran through the 5 minute cool down, and then started the stopwatch on my phone. I ran for 12 minutes and 57 seconds without stopping. Then I finished up walking to cool down a bit! I felt really good about that!
Today I DID go and get a pedicure, and it was amazing! It was a lavender one, with hot stones and paraffin wax... now my toes look *kinda* girly for a change! The massage chair that I was in for the duration of the pedicure felt amazing as well! I also ended up getting my fingernails done as well, and I got a nice back/neck massage after I was done! I felt very pampered in there!
We also went to lunch before the nail salon. I had a buffalo chicken salad and we shared onion rings. Also, ended up making homemade pizza for dinner and everything fit nicely in my diary with a little wiggle room if I decide to have a snack!
And l was trying some of my clothes on today, and some things that used to fit me pretty horribly look pretty good now! Some jeans are too big, and even some of my shirts! I do have a Uconn shirt that I got last summer that didn't fit at all, and now does! Woohoo!
Today was just a pretty good day overall and I wanted to share!
You are rocking it! Congrats on the run, and good on you for the pampering Have a great weekend!
Thank you so much! I hope you have a great weekend too!1 -

@cmhubbard92, I'd say it was an excellent day!! So glad you decided to pamper yourself. It was a well deserved indulgence! But you didn't just get your nails done...you had a complete spa day, it seems! For a girl who has never had a pedicure, you started with the Cadillac model...hot stones and paraffin wax! Then you had lunch out, and still came in under budget...well done! And of course, anytime we can fit into clothes we haven't fit into for a while deserves a hearty congratulations and a whoo hoo!!
Thank you so much!!! I just got on my lunch break to catch up on everything!1 -

Yes.. I would join.
What would be super helpful is if everyone could give me their usernames on Fitbit, or their links so I can add them. I would love to start some challenges with you all! I have friends from other challenges on my Fitbit, so I just need to make a challenge for TBBT guys/gals!
ETA: if you tell me what your names are on Fitbit, too that would help. I have a few friends with the same name, so it may get confusing!1 -
