I actually counted all of my calories today in fitday...the first day in sooo long. need to keep it up

i bought a new hair dryer and a new round brush so I can make my hairstyle look comparable to what I walked out of the salon with.

Okay, yet again, I owe two things! Anyone else noticing a pattern here? Heh.

My positive thing for yesterday is easy--I took in three of my pairs of jeans that had started getting really loose on me! I don't know why, but since I've started losing weight it bugs me to have all that extra fabric around my legs and tush... I want my shape to show. But the BEST thing about it is that all three of the pairs I sewed yesterday had been tight on me at some point!!! The first pair I could just barely squeeze myself into around the 240s (they were reeeally loose but I hadn't gotten around to sewing them yet, heh) and the other two pairs were the two that I had bought before starting school this year, and had both been really tight before! I thought they would last longer, but I'm pleasantly surprised, hehe. I can't wait to try on pants in a store while I'm home for Thanksgiving, and see whether I've really dropped a size... I feel a strong suspicion that I might be a size 14!! Woo-hoo!

My positive thing for today is that I'm LEAVING TO GO HOME FOR THANKSGIVING! Yea!! That's not really related to anything that I personally have done, LOL, but I can't think of anything more positive than that. I'm SO psyched to spend time with my family, and I can't wait to see the reactions of everyone... The bulk of the people I'll be seeing haven't seen me in 2.5 months (aka 25ish lbs ago), and some haven't seen me in almost a year!! I'm not gonna lie, I'm looking forward to (hopefully!) getting some compliments. Hehe!

wow meredith you will get so many compliments i bet!!


I feel positive today because after a really poor week at work last week(im a sales manager) today was amazing and we did 300% of our daily target in one day.

I stayed on plan, ive eaten an on plan meal and plan to get a very early night!

Wonderful x

One positive thing is tha my new hair looks hot!!!!

Today i used my body scrub and then put some baby oil and felt great.

I Finally took my Pink Victoria Secret coat to the cleaners so i can wear it haha!

I'm so jealous! i think ill do that tonight

i stayed under 2000 calories today!!

After a nasty night of frustration about weightloss (or lack thereof) i was down a pound this morning.

AND

Met with my future assisstant and am absolutely pumped for the new year when she starts because it'll move my business into high gear. Excellent!

Someone told me today .. that every time they saw me they got a bit jealous because i actually stuck with my word this time and am losing the weight!!

ok i have three!!!

1) my aquafit instructor last night asked everyone to kick our feet to the top of the water or higher ( the water is pretty high) and I was giving it my all...and i could do it..she acknowledged me in front of the whole class and was like " wow you're working really hard..look at her feet...you're turning purple!" i was so proud!!!

2) The maintenance man for my company hadn't seen me in a few months and he said i was getting so skinny....and said oh my goodness you're almost like Nicole ( a coworker at another location..we have 6 daycares....who is ultra tall/skinny model like) i was like "yah right" but inside was whoo hooo!

3) I was trying to find EVERY excuse to not go to aquafit tonight.....cold/tired/headache..blah blah blah..and finally repeated something a friend once said..."suck it up princess and just DO IT" I feel so great now!

a co-worker told me if I lose any more weight, I'll be completely invisible. Sh'yeah, right. But still!

My mom is taking me for a wardrobe shopping spree on friday. woo woo!

My positive thing for today (Wednesday) is that I got to see tons of people that I haven't seen in a while, and I got tons of compliments... Apparently, the difference in my body is pretty noticeable to my friends, haha! I am truly feeling on top of the world right now.

That's an awesome saying! lol I think i'm going to use your friend's saying as my own! (if that's okay)

Wow, the last few ppl have all said how other people are noticing their hard work... it's amazing how some positive reinforcement makes you "feel on top of the world". Excellent!

My positive is I kicked a would-be cold in the butt by taking some time to sleep it off and flush it through and feel fantastic now.
And I feel all the more determined because I've stuck to working out and eating properly for the last few days and am already seeing a drop each day on the scale! woo hoo! (pretty soon i hope to have ppl noticing my hard work too)
