My nonscale victory is that I started using my fitness pal again after months of neglecting my health, and even though I’ve only been back to it for 4 days and I’ve already had one fall back day, I feel more motivated than ever to keep at it.8 -

15th November
Calories: Yes. Used up all my calories and 14 over on a delicious lunch I'd prepared for friends, but I still had calories left from exercise, yes, 60 minutes walking, so I had a final glass of white wine at the concert I went to last night and was still under. Tracked it all, yes, so I don't have to declare a Pass Day.
My NSV is the very fact that I'm on here and have posted for almost a week now!6 -
@Chinkiri I am so glad that you share your journey with our team.
@Fallondafalcon Welcome back to MFP. You are new to this team, right?
@fitqueenbess Congratulations on getting your fitqueenbess back!
@Bill70sStrong You deserve and need the few rests you allow yourself. Take care of yourself, we live in the cold humid Midwest.
@Irsirius Sleep is precious when we no longer get to take it for granted. I know that.

This is everyone's favorite post day of the month...what is going right with you?
This is the day that we share a non-scale-victory...what is yours?
My size 10 jeans fit today, down from a 12. We don't have uniform clothing sizes in the United States. Some manufacturers have vanity sizing, label something quite large a 10. Despite all that common sense stuff, it feels great to wear smaller jeans.

Today was a day of 'the necessaries"...dental and chiropractic appointments. Errands and chores.
For the last two weeks, my exercise routine has been reduced from a variety of cardio/strength/intervals to just daily walking. Pain in my lumbar region interferes with a lot of normal movements and activities. I have not gotten worse, but... I'm babying my back at this time.
Calories: under by enough
Tracking: okay
Exercise: 35 minutes on the treadmill.7 -

Tracked every gram
Pass Days Remaining: 2
NSV: Over time, since losing my weight, I have developed an art practice & spent considerable time organizing all of my art, fiber, and other supplies for ease of use. It was all worth it.
I am creating daily & loving it! My teacher even held up one of my gesture figure drawings to show the class last night. Week 9 & first time he’s ever done with any of our art. Hugely validating to me with my checkered past with art teachers. Of course after he did that, I was so flustered, it took many more quick poses until I drew anything remotely as successful, but I was Beaming! The hard work has been worth it.
I knew if my life was just about maintaining, I would fall back to using food for relaxation, celebration, entertainment. I consciously developed my art skills/learning so it, along with my walks, could fill in those non-nutrition based needs. So far, so good❣️6
