Sometimes the internal conversations we have can be quite negative and we don't realise we are doing good and have made positive empowering choices until it is right in front of our eyes...so post them!

Mine are...

1. I didn't smoke today or really feel the NEED to smoke.

2. I had Alpen for breakfast (big deal for me as I am the Queen of the Egg McMuffin)

3. I chose a healthy lunch

4. I didn't cry at the dentist and I took my injections like a man!

What's everyone else of proud of today? It can be 1 thing or 100 things!!!!

Hahaha EDIT - I had not read the Negative post before I posted this one! My bad!

    I am proud that I am down a half a pound after a week at Disney World on vacation with the family. Survived character buffets, awesome food, and Mickey bars.

    I'm proud that I did another day of my circuit training routine my PT gave me....even though I was terrified after how hard it was when I did it in her studio! Also, I've already had 8 glasses of water today, so its gonna be a great day!

    This is too funny. I thought OP was a man at first, which would have made it funnier to me. But I totally relate to the trauma of the dentist! Every time I go to the dentist I have to struggle not to get a burrito afterward (comfort food)! :cry:

    1. I put on clothes I ordered, in the size I have been ordering forever. I was hesitant to put them on for fear I was delusional in my healthy habits.
    I am swimming in said clothes. Tonight I have to try to shrink them. I have never had this problem.

    2. I have yet to give in to the chocolate at work.

    Not a bad monday.

    After not being able to hold it for more than thirty seconds a year ago, and not trying since, I held the plank position for 60 seconds today.

    After working 26 hours this weekend, I went out jogging this morning... just to realized how tired I was! :yawn:
    But the only thing that counts, is that I DID run. :bigsmile:

    Great job on the workouts and such!

    I'm so proud that I did zumba today, even being sick and hardly able to breath. But I powered through it and promptly fell into bed.

    I am proud of myself that even though I felt yucky this morning (TOM, tmi :blushing: ) I didn't crawl back into bed after taking my daughter to school, I went out there and still did my walking!!

    Today I found out I am just 3 pounds away from losing 10 stone (140 pounds). That should be reached by next week sometime.

    I've been back on track for two days now, after a week-long illness left me practically bedridden and indulging on junk.

    Sure, I've got almost 3lbs to lose to get back to my lowest weight of 2012, but it's good to be healthy again.

    That's incredible! Way to go!

    I'm proud that I am finding it easier and easier to say no to candy and sweets, particularly when I'm not hungry.
    I'm proud that I've worked out every day this week, including trying out a new Power Yoga workout.
    I'm getting my kids involved in my workouts, too.

    I am proud that I didn't eat the Girl Scout Cookies that my coworker put on my filing cabinet! Everyone else has stopped by to visit and grab a couple of cookies, hopefully they are gone soon.

    I had my weekly weigh in at the hospital today and I've gained two pounds this week. At first I was quite upset over this but I know it is what my body needs and it is what I am working towards. I need to gain weight and have a healthy lifestyle so hopefully one day I can have a healthy baby. Definately a reason to fight anorexia!
