    I'm proud of myself for staying under my calorie goal and still having 2 slices of pizza and 2 glasses of red wine last night!

    Also, I'm proud of myself for fitting into the size 12 pair of black skinny jeans today that I bought when I started my weight loss journey (they were a size too small).

    I'm proud that even though the journey is tough - I have not given up. I've lost 56lbs and have about another 40, and today I ACTUALLY BELIEVE it will happen. Before I just thought it and hoped - but today I know it will :)) smiles all around!

    Im proud of myself today because:
    -I had a great session with my trainer this morning
    -When I was feeling tired this afternoon I drank more water and herbal tea instead of having any caffeine
    -When I got home I cooked a bunch of food to have in the fridge and freezer for the weekend
    -I did a fair bit of studying.

    Overall, a very productive day!

    I am proud of myself today because even though, I am getting sick, and spent the first 4 hrs of the day in the ER with my 3 yr old. I still got on my treadmill and jogged! It was a short one, but I still did something!

    I am proud of myself because I've taken 7 pounds off, which has improved the quality of my life, the longevity of my life and my tennis game. I am proud of myself because this is the longest I've stuck with weight loss in YEARS! I love mfp!

    Sounds totally ridiculous, but I am proud of myself because I can take my jeans off today without having to unbutton or unzip, two weeks into my journey!

    I am down 11 pounds in just over a month. I didn't eat any Valentine's chocolates, I'm taking great care of my body, and I'm going to the gym most nights. I just feel freaking fantastic, and that makes me proud of myself!

    I'm proud of myself because two weeks ago I gave myself a 28 day challenge to eat well and within my calorie goals and to workout at least 5 days a week. The last two weeks I worked out 6 days a week and have been within my calorie goals. This may be the first time it really feels like I can do this!

    I'm proud of myself for running outside today even tho it was really cold. My ears were freezing, but I didn't cut my run short because of it. Back to the indoor track tomorrow, tho. LOL.

    I'm proud of myself because even though something difficult and disappointing happened today, I have *not* given into emotional eating. I have stayed on track and kept food out of the issue. I'm also way faster at running than I was a year ago and feel more toned than two months ago.

    I'm proud of myself for finding an alternative dressing for my salads because diet dressings taste yucky and full flavor ones kill all my other habits. TOO MUCH FAT!! YUCK YUCK YUCK!!

    I was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis and bone spurs on Monday and today I walked a little over 4 miles, very slowly but I did it!
