I bumped up my weights again for my workouts and am using 12s and 15s now and feel myself getting stronger.

Husband bought me a lovely pair of trousers for christmas 2 years ago that were always too tight and now I can finally wear them! He now believe that I really like them and am not just saying it

My husband and I are on vacation in Europe. This morning I walked up all 374 steps of the Montagne de Bueren, a staircase built in 1881, in Liège, Belgium in 7 minutes and 56 seconds. I didn't time my trip back down as it snowed last night and the top half of the steps were still covered in wet snow. I'm pretty certain it took longer going down as we were being very cautious. Hehe.

I’m in the right headspace to accomplish my goal

I'm able to refocus on fundamentals like this, amid all the static of my self-recrimination (gaining weight, not losing weight before, etc) so that I can see a path forward that I feel I can achieve the success that's so important to me now. It looks do-able! I'm doing this.

Every day I begin with dressing for activity, which I find humorous as a 69 year old heading out the door dressed like some elite athlete

My sale rack running tights are too big now... soon I'll have to replace them because having to stop walking and hike them back up is a little weird.

My self-talk is positive and optimistic. Even when it sounds like this: welp, these pounds are not going to walk themselves off...

Yesterday my husband wanted cubed steak and mashed potatoes for dinner. I was going to have the cubed steak but not fried and breaded with a salad and baked potato. But I ended up getting a can of smoked herring for my protein, with the salad and baked potato instead. When the cubed steak was cooking, the smell of the grease made me feel sick. I remembered the last time we had it and I got sick from the grease. I can't handle that much grease anymore. I'm just not used to it. This time last year I was obese. This time next week I'll be in normal BMI range. I am 1.8 pounds from my goal! Currently 56.2 pounds down.

WOW. How long have you been lifting?

Jacq_qui · March 12

My resting HR is back under 60bpm. Happy with that.

I had a couple of NSVs this week.
1. I had Covid back in mid- January and then covid rebound on top of that. This week was the first time I was able to do my pre-covid exercise schedule of 5 days water aerobics and 3 days strength training! I had to very slowly work up to it dealing with a lot of post covid fatigue and headaches. The headaches are finally gone and the fatigue has diminished dramatically. So glad to be back.

2. I tried on a size 6 in my favorite jeans in the store. Didn't buy them but I was able to fully zip and button them. Almost wearable. Yay!

So far in 2023 I’ve eaten the majority of meals at home. I’m cooking more frequently than I ever have in my life. It feels good and it tastes better. I’m proud of myself.

AGLake · March 13

cooking and eating more at home . 👍✌️

spirittrail · March 14

I have taken walks for years. I'll usually stop over the Winter. I started up again last week....since really concentrating on nutrition and more intense exercise over the last two months. I shocked myself! 😲 Not only am I fitter and stronger....I have shaved off an amazing FIVE MINUTES from my former 15 and 20 minute routes!! They are now 10 and 15 minute routes! The walks go by so quickly now....I'm going to have to find a new 20 minute route! And increase my walks to 30 minutes as my regular nightly routine....instead of my old 20 minute post dinner walks. 🚶‍♀️

EddieAF93 · March 14

My biggest NSV is that I've gone over a week without binge eating for the first time in months if not years!

jst1986 · March 14

Managed to get a soccer shirt for my team for the first time in years - always been too big for even their biggest size until now!

Remoth · March 14

I spent the last couple days bowling with my friends, and I wasn't sweating like I was when I started bowling with them 2.5 months ago, pre-50lbs lost. I also have a lot more room in between the tables and mounted chairs in the bowling alley. Super thrilled! Looking forward to the future nsv's as I lose the next 50 lbs!

victoriabgaffney · March 14

My first NSV I’ve noticed since January is that I am down a pant size!!!

Domino4068 · March 14

I Finally started logging again after 3 job losses and my father in laws death . i have self sabotaged and made excuses. Enough is enough. I have also meal prepped for the week . Baby steps - but definitely a NSV for me.

elspectre · March 14

I no longer contemplate whether it's worth going up and down the stairs, since it doesn't hurt or wind me anymore.

Also, my damn jeans keep falling off my (reduced) *kitten*

kpie88 · March 15

My size 40 jeans are just about to start falling off, even with a belt. This time last year I couldn't get them around my gut. I suppose I could punch another hole in my belt to buy a little more time, but it's a nice feeling to have. I just hope they don't fall off unexpectedly before that.
