Well, my best fitting pants are not longer fitting. Is that a victory? Even better, I have been thinking I feel stronger. ECT were all on point today. AM 1600 m swim8

Yes to all three questions.6

I am back! Hope everyone had a good thanksgiving. We sure did and as a result I will not be in the winner's circle this month but I am back and intend to continue to log in each day. My NSV would be not giving up completely after the week I had. I am getting back on track before I lose my progress...

Rick's question about a non-scale victory: I'm happy to report I'm no longer in pain from my injured knee/leg. It's about 90 percent well now. I plan to go out to the nearby national park tomorrow for a small hike (it will be the first time I've set foot there for 3 weeks). Small means under an hour.6 -

Pass day today as I did not log the snacks or champagne (I can handle half a glass without wanting to go to sleep after kidney surgery) we had to celebrate three of our judo club competing at Commonwealth Worlds - 1 bronze medal and the first time overseas for one of the competitors!
My NSV is major progress with my frozen shoulder. Physio is happy for me to try some jiu jitsu technique, but my other rehab guy understands jiu jitsu and he suggested I wait, so I am going to see him on Friday and hopefully try some next week!!! It is nearly 8 months since I broke my arm so I am very keen to get back...6 -

NSV!
I had gotten rid of all clothes that were too large a year or two ago because they didn’t make me feel good.
Today I found a pair of larger jeans in a bag of old sailing gear that I didn’t know I still had. Not even from my highest...
So I put them on. OMG. That little tummy I had been obsessing over at times is NOTHING. I am SO glad I have these jeans. I hadn’t realized just how much weight I had lost until now.
I incredulously asked my husband, “Were these jeans too large before?” He’s a very kind man & quietly responded, “I remember when you had to wear them with the top button undone...”
SO glad I have them. They are labeled size 20, and I know at my very highest I was in a 26. 47-48 hip.
Now a size 14. 40-41 hip.
Other NSV: after my initial period of adjustment (oct 1-4) I’ve successfully adapted to my lower calorie allotment l.
I’ve gotten back to my 10K steps !!! Today, I walked over 13K!! Walking seems to work better for me than the gym, but I hope to be more moderate in my weight lifting 2nd time around!

1 hour upper body push + 1 hour aerobics in the afternoon, with another trainer to yell at me, which the gym kindly provides included in the cost of membership
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day?
Yes, 412 calories under, cause polenta (actually the highly popular traditional Romanian version called "mămăligă") is very - let me say that again: very filling, full of iron, vitamin A and low in calories.
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank?
Yup

Pass Day 2/3
Some of you know how I'll I've been lately. (Even threw up yesterday with a really high temp). But I'm proud that I haven't given up and eaten gobs of comfort food (what I would normally do). That right there is a giant nsv for me. If this kind of week had happened a year ago I would be face planted in a bowl of mashed potatoes. 🤦
But I've stayed the course, kept moving as much as possible and still eaten sensibly.7 -
@znaoiec Congrats on the birth of your first grandchild. It is so much fun to watch their growth and development that first year. After that...welcome to grand-parenting when you can spoil them first and send them home later!1
