Exercise!

I did it, I took advantage of a hotel workout room. I have never done that! I always take clothes, but always have an excuse. I did 20 minutes on the elliptical machine and it felt good. I felt like I was in good shape, even though I haven't been doing a great job with working out lately.

Another small victory is I made good choices for dinner tonight and prepared for breakfast tomorrow. I am traveling for business right now and opted to run to the grocery store rather than go out to a restaurant. Go ME!!!

Cute Old Navy Halloween shirts!

This might sound silly, but I have always wanted to buy one of those cute little Old Navy Halloween shirts. But, they are just that, LITTLE!! Last Halloween I got Trinity one there, and tried on a large. It was a bit small. Well, today, I bought one, in Medium!!

MY FIRST CUTE LITTLE OLD NAVY HALLOWEEN SHIRT!!

Now I just have to find somewhere to wear it too!!

Also, I have always admired tight fitting sweaters with tight fitting long sleeved shirts under the sweater. I bought those today too, at Old Navy of course, and yes, in Medium!!

It is these small victories that keep me going.

Non-scale Victories

Non-scale victories are the small daily victories in a weight loss journey that have nothing to do with what the scale says, and often make me feel better then the lower numbers. I have a victory to share.

The last two days I have put on button up blouses that were always just shirts to wear under a suit jacket. The reason: they stretched at the buttons and could only be worn with decency under a jacket!! NOW: they are button up blouses I can wear with any slacks, and DO NOT have to cover with a suit jacket!! And, they both almost look too large on me!!!
