I saw a thread on this subject somewhere on the board today, and can't find it again. Since I found the Featherweight section here and chimed in, I've been enjoying how nice it is to think of myself as being a Feather instead of thinking of myself as fat.

If it's all right, could we have a "post something you like about yourself today" thread?

Moderators, please do delete this if it's not all right.

Today I like thinking of myself as a feather! I'm even moving more weightlessly and gracefully.

I like my legs. They're one of the only things on me that are actually really nice looking! (In my opinion of myself)

Today, I like my commitment!

This afternoon, I was so tired I couldn't keep my eyes open. It was raining and thundering. And... I packed all three kids in the car and went to the gym. One hour on the stairmaster and some pushups, crunches, squats and curls!

I also like my arms. See "pushups" and "curls" above.

I like that I planted the things I needed to in the backyard yesterday. I like that I ran so far today.

Absolutely!! Don't be shy to start threads SilvierLife... I'll change the title of this thread to "Post something you like about yourself today" ... I have those powers

What I like about myself to day is that my fingers are feeling bony ... Silly, yes, but that's how I tell if I'm losing weight :

A lovely idea for a thread. I have no problem with there being lots of these at 3FC!

I don't mind the pictures that were taken of me at a function on Saturday. And that's pretty cool. I don't mind looking at my own picture ... hmmm ...

Ilene, thanks. I like it that I'm staying on my food plan and my movement/exercise plan and enjoying them both.

My pyjama pants are getting big so they slide a little and kind hang on my hips. Makes me feel slim through the middle ... in belly dancer fashion

It was easier to exercise today, and it's becoming ever easier to move, in general. It's a nice feeling.

I like my stomach today! Coming from this apple, that is huge, I have never had a waist, and now I'm starting to see definition in my abs.

(thank you 30 Day Shred!)

Chickapea - that is huge! I, too, am an apple with belly issues.

I like the fact that I'm going to get off my butt and do hot yoga tonight, burning about 600 calories!

Hot yoga sounds amazing and my friend that does it all the time has an amaaazing body. But I'm pretty weird about trying new stuff! LOL! I can't even drag myself to the gym, I just do my workout DVDs at home.
