Little Successes
 

Please post your little successes here! They add up! :cheer:

I gained 2 pounds the other day, and I KNOW it was because I haven't been drinking my water.
I've already downed three glasses this morning, and I'm going to stay hydrated! :hat:

I finally can wear both my wedding ring and engagement ring this week. They haven't fit in 4 years! :dance:

Melissa, I haven't worn my ring in 4 years as well. CONGRATS TO YOU !!!!!
I hope to say the same some day soon lol.

Little successes....... I'm eating more veggies ;)

Congratulations, girls! :hat:

This may seem ridiculously small, but I started taking an iron supplement yesterday, plus an "energy booster" with bee pollen, ginseng, and wheat grass. I'm hoping it will perk me up a little.
And I'm wondering if I've become lactose intolerant. I've noticed that when I have ice cream, etc now, my stomach blows right up, and I feel TERRIBLE.
If only there was such a thing as Dorito intolerance...

Hi! I'm new to this site and absolutely love what I've seen so far!
I am also very happy to report that I've been going to the gym twice every week for the past month, and have also been good with my food intake.

Coffie, welcome!! :wave: It's great to have you here! :grouphug:

Congratulations on your successes... those are HUGE!! :hat:

Welcome coffie!

I hope those new additions give you the energy your looking for ellis!

Today I ran 5 miles. First 1 mile, then took a break, then another mile, then took a break. Then I ran 3 miles all at once! I haven't ran that far all at once since like....like....junior high!!! God definitely sent some angels to carry me.

RedRaider, that is wonderful! :cheer: :cheer:
I love your "yoda quote". :lol:

Okay, I want to know how old you are now :D

So, about four years ago I lost around 80lbs. The crowning achievement to that loss was a fantastic dress I got to wear to a wedding. I have had that dress hanging in my bedroom to motivate me. Last time I lost I never fit in a size 10, since I am starting to fit in them I figured I would try on the dress. IT WAS TOO BIG! I am still about 6lbs higher than my all time low weight, but I didn't strength train last time, so I think I am actually smaller now than I was before.

:jig: :jig: :jig:

Melissa, I'm so happy for you, sweetie!! :grouphug: I remember 163 very well. I'm hoping to "join you" soon. :) Keep it up, girl!! :cheer:

Congratulations, sexyacura!! :hat:

This is a little success but one worth mentioning. I have been good one week (Low Carb) and I'm down almost 5 pounds. It wasn't easy having cake, ice cream, brownies, mac & cheese, bread, candy, etc in front of me almost daily. It is very hard for me to say no, but I've done it.

I don't remember the last time I was good for a week doing anything. My goal is 66 more days of being good with an exception for one meal (my honey's birthday dinner).

Keep your fingers crossed for me.
