    I was told by a stranger that something I said on MFP was helpful. Wow. If only they knew who clueless I am :)

    But I will count that as a small success.

    I squatted 30lbs today.....3 sets of 15 reps. Two weeks ago I could barely squat my own body weight. I know it's not much, but it is a big deal for me! :bigsmile:

    Had a great session with my trainer today, and on my last circuit did all 12 of the burpees with push-ups even though she was going to let me stop at 10.

    I work at a preschool. Usually, I snack between 330 and 4pm. I skipped out on snack time since I didn't know what my dinner would look like. I am babysitting and usually the parents do pizza. Thankfully, it was carnitas.

    Went to Chick fil A and only had a little bit of Spicy dressing on my wrap, not the whole package! If you never tried it, it's very good! Their blue cheese is amazing too- I haven't had any of that all year.

    I DIDN'T go to Jack in the Box! I really wanted the new Chicken Chipolte Sandwich. Good thing I checked the nutrition first. The meal was over 1100 calories! THis is a good step, normally I would say "oh well and start over tomorrow."

    I kept a smile on my face, didn't run and cry when yet another company called and said "sorry, you are wonderful, intelligent, experienced...but didn't get the job" It sucks, and it sticks I'm used to it--ha ha. but I refuse to lose my positive outlook. I will get that job, no matter how long it takes! That will make it more worth it.

    Tomorrow is another day:)

    day 2 of 30DS. I did it! Everyday that I meet my diet and exercise goals is a good day. Even if it isn't a weigh in day.

    I was feeling a little down after dinner because I didn't have time to go to the gym today. I had a glass of wine and decided to just relax. After I finished my wine, I was about to pour myself another glass. I thought, if I have another glass, I will completely max out my calorie limit for today. So instead, I stood up, popped in my Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred DVD and worked out. I felt so much better after, and didn't even want that second glass of wine.

    I put on a pencil skirt that when I first bought it I could barely zip, and the last time I wore it (maybe 2 weeks ago?) I had to wear spanx underneath... today it zipped, it looked great without the spanx... and even fit a little loose! Woohoo!

    I walked for 70 minutes straight today, I am pretty sure that is a record.

    Tried on a medium top today and the fit looked good!! This made me happy, even though it was too see-through for me to buy.

    My small success was stopping at the gas station with my family and not buying a candy bar I bought a skinny cow bar that had chocalate in it and only 110 calories so I took care of the craving and did not over eat. Really this seems like a big success in the sense that normally I would have bought a candy bar for me and my family so now I only buy healthier alternatives.

    Bumped my run up to 4 miles from 3 today. The hardest part was setting the alarm 10 minutes earlier!
