what was your accomplishment today?


Quote  |  Reply

For me at this point even the slightest accomplishment is a huge step in the right direction... so for today I passed up a Pepperidge Farm Key Lime cake!  Well it was a mini accomplishment 'cause I did lick my finger after I served it to my kiddos but I did NOT take a bite or piece or eat the balance of the little bit that was left!  Along with that, when I opened up our baggie/ saran wrap drawer the oreos & kudos stared at me & I stared back but did not touch them!  Instead I poured a mug of tomato soup to hold me over until dinner! whoohoo

I passed over strawberry cheesecake in the employee cafeteria.  I ate the strawberry though...

I ran for 2, 10 minute stretches with just a couple of mins walking in between :)  And it felt GOOOD!

great accomplishment - remember each trade off is worth so much more in the end - your health & well-being!  Keep it up jigglethehandle!

super intervals meima - keep it up & you'll be doing more of those in no time!

I joined this site today.  I made a meal plan for the day. I exercised in the morning.  not much else.  should probably cleaning the house!

CONGRATS on joining - that is a HUGE step in the right direction!

Your accomplishment of the "meal plan for the day" I think is the best way to stay on track.  My days are much better when they are planned out right through to bedtime!

today's accomplishment's - passing up my kid's junk food drawer & an open box of croissants along with staying within my calorie goal for the day (which has been a bit troublesome lately)!

I got back on track after vacation, and I don't feel at all bad about the horribly wonderful time I had.

I kept from hitting an idiotic co-worker with a coffee pot who was trying to throw me under the bus showing off for a new boss.

I did some major weight training today! FINALLY! ... Now if I could just keep it up.

Oh! I passed the stupid cinnamon buns that were being handed out... for free!

AND! I cracked open my textbook!!!!!!!  Now I just have to read it. *Shifty eyes*

I made a hot dog, and fries for dinner and stayed in my calorie allowance :)

see now.. that slinging coffee pot for me would have been "what can I eat that will make this bad feeling go away" so if you avoided stressful eating due to that co-worker moment -that would've been a huge accomplishment LOL

Last night (my wooorst time of day) I had a pink grapefruit while my hubby ate a HUGE bowl of chocolate marshmallow ice cream!

My woo hoo for today is that I went from being classified as severly obese to severely overweight! I had the word obese because I dont think of myself that way so when i entered my info and it didnt say that I did a happy dance!Laughing

so today could've been a disaster... was up from 12 -3 am waiting for my teenager son to get home, ate chips & guacamole, few pieces of 70% dark chocolate & canteloupe then decided to not keep it going through the whole day....slept a little later so skipped breakfast (that's pretty much what I ate waiting for the teenybopper to bop in!), had a huge spinach salad for lunch & having something decent for dinner --- in the past I'd just say oh well this weekend/ or day is blown might as well eat whatever & not count anymore that day or weekend so my accomplishment today was to do a complete u-turn and get back on track right away! 

great job on everyone else's little accomplishments - after awhile they add up to alot especially when they become automatic!

I went for a walk, and I have a deficit today!

Hm, what did I accomplish today... Well I worked out, ate delicious food, actually worked on my English Paper (boy was that tough - and still not done yet!)... Watched the snow fall... Disappointed my sister and managed not to throw up (I was nauseous all last night & most of today)! 

I ate several pieces of chocolate and did a short work out.  Not too long but I did 2 sets of push ups and 3 of jumping jacks.  Big deal for me. I hate those!

Today was the first day I had the chance to get outside for some exercise (as I was sick most of last week). I went for a 6.4km jog, only walking 2 minutes of it at the turnaround point! yay! :)

Another hurdle I just made it over- not one but 2 of my kids came to me separately looking for a Chips Ahoy cookie. The first time I was sorely tempted to have one but instead got one for my son and asked him to put the package away. When my daughter came around 5 minutes later, I was able to resist again!

I hit the gym and cooked dinner for the first time in like a week!!

I finally broke my little plateau, and have officially lost 12 pounds total.

 

I didn't order any food from taco bell when I ran to get my manager something for him.  He even offered to pay!!!!

i broke 140 (again, and for good this time!) and ran just short of 5k.

I ran my mile in 11:44  :D
