Talking The Brag Thread!

Lets brag about something ou have acomplished or feel food about doing.
We all need to feel good about those things.

I will start.

Yesterday I did 2 workouts! I did one early, it was an really great aerobic workout that made me sweat a bucket! I used weights in that workout so I also achieved some strength training at the same time. That workout lasted an hour.

Then later me and a friend walked up a local "mountain" It is a 2 mile uphill climb the whole way. I took a backpack and put weights in it (10 lbs).
We got to the top and it was breezy and there was a beautiful sunset. The sun went down we stayed up there for a while and then there were bats! It was really neat. Then we walked the 2 miles back down.

My calorie deficit for the day was 1360!

I was a great day and I plan on having a similiar one today!

I went to Wal-Mart on the weekend, I tried on 3 bras and liked two of them! Bra shopping done in less then 5 mintues... thats a first. I also bought a 36D instead of a 40D - 4 inches lost! woooo! Maybe this is more of a YAY ME! maybe it should go there instead, haha

WTG, on your exercise!

I brought a salad for lunch today, actually ate it, and went to the store at lunch to get more veggies for more salads this week.

Ditto on the we WANNA see puppy pictures as soon as he arrives, sotypical.

Blueyedblonde, you can NEVER have enough "YAY me" threads.

"YAY me" is what keeps me going. I bought two broiled chicken breasts to put in my & hubbie''s salad tonight...and I gave him 1.75 of the chicken!!!!

(This is the first time I ever bought already made this chicken--it was good once you get all that skin off of it...And I only bought it because I am like, legally blind tonight & can't cook, because of a mishap this morning...but that's another story)

Hm, there's probably some sort of online support forum for that ... LOL. I'm wondering why you'd need 5 cameras. One cell-phone camera, a non-digital camera, a good digital, and maybe a high-res digital? I'm not sure I can even think of five different kinds of cameras.

I think "Yay Me" is different from bragging. Bragging has more attitude with it!

My big brag is that I lost 5.75 pounds this week, which put me over the 60-pound lost mark!

I just couldn't stop laughing on this one. Being on a diet board, it's so hard to get that thought out of our heads, ain't it?

Oh, here's one.

I struggle to get in exercise. I set goals for minutes to exercise each month so that I will make it. Although the goals have increased I don't get much above the goal. Exercise is a struggle for me.

And yet, I have done some kind of exercise every day since May 25th!!!

Now many days this exercise a 15 min walk with my dogs or 10 min doing ab and back exercises... it's not like I have strenuous workouts every day. And I didn't even set out to do this -- it just sort of happened as my min/month increased.

Anyway, I'm proud of my exercise streak!!

That is awesome! I loathe exercise, so I understand what a challenge this could be.
