A good day :)
Today didn’t start off so wonderful, but it ended up being a good day. I brought healthy snacks with me to work becaue I knew that I would be at my downtown office for a while this morning and they always have junk food around. And I did pretty well, but I ended up there longer than I had planned so by the time I was leaving I was starving and the only place to stop that was on my way was McDonalds. No thanks!! I did find a granola bar in my purse and filled up my water bottle and that got me through till I got home and could have a healthy lunch. It was sury yummy when I finally got to eat.
Then it was back to work for the rest of the afternoon. This afternoon one of my co-workers and I were talking (he happens to be the one the got me going to his gym) and he asked me how much weight I had lost. Kinda surprised me that he finally got curious enough to ask. Anyway, I told him. Felt good that he had really noticed. Anyway . . . got done with work and went to the gym. I was a little tired so the workout was a little rough, but I got through it. Well my co-worker and I were talking a little more at the gym and he told me that right after I left the office he and our boss were talking and she had mentioned to him that it looked like I was losing weight. He told her that I had and that I was working out everyday, etc. Anyway, he had to come tell me and cheer me on a little.
Anyway, after the end of last week when I was feeling a little down, and today when I was a little tired; that made me feel good and made me realize that even though I don’t feel like it right now, I am progressing. So . . . we’ll keep going :) I’m feeling good

That is awesome Elizabeth. I can’t wait until people start to notice my weight loss. Maybe once I get under 200 pounds they will begin to notice. Keep up the great work hun.
aww i love when people ask or notice your progress it makes it sooo worth it!
Compliments do wonders dont they!
Yay Liz! All good stuff. I love it that, even though you were tired, hungry, etc., you didn’t let “life” get in the way and push you to instant gratification choices. Instead, you thought it through, made the best of it, went to the gym anyway, passed up McDeath’s, and ate something healthier. The compliments you got was the cherry of it all.
Good that you had that granola bar in your purse! Lately, I’ve been keeping a snack bag of almonds, walnuts, pistachios in my truck just in case I get caught out by “life” and find myself hungry. Sure does save me some grief later.
Big HUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGS and High Fiverssss,

I love compliments, they do energize! Good job on avoiding McDonalds!
Glad you passed up McDonalds!
It is such a wonderful feeling when people notice and you get compliments!
You go, girl, you are doing wonderful!
You are a great buddy!
Big HUGS!
That is awesome! I know it feels wonderful when other people notice the changes you are making! i think we have a problem being able to see the change in ourselves…sometimes it’s because we look at ourselves every day but I think the main reason is we are sooo used to looking in the mirror and seeing our old self. We might have lost 30 lbs yet when we look in the mirror we see ourselves 30 lbs heavier. You know what I mean? Well keep up the progress and the working out! That’s one thing I NEED to start doing!
How great and motivating! It is nice to hear it when people notice our efforts! YAY for you E! I hope you have a great weekend!
Woo Hoo on passing up McDonalds!
You are doing an amazing job. It is nice when people notice a difference, kinda gives you a little extra push and motivation. You go girl!
