What success (big or small) did you have today?

Re: What success (big or small) did you have today?

It's been a good week here. Both of my son's who wanted to lose a pound or 20 have reached their goals and are on OWL rungs. I had a setback due to eating something without knowing what was in it. Induction has gotten me almost back to where I was. I went shopping and found that I'm almost down another pants size. I only bought one pair because I'll need a smaller size soon. I met my husband at the airport and he commented on how nice my new clothes look on me.

Lyssie! Keep looking at those goals and rewards! The earrings and bracelet are beautiful!
What is the tatoo going to be of???

The tattoo was initiatially going to be of a moon/sun combo thing, kinda like this: http://www.luckyfishart.com/celestiallove.html to represent the duality in a person, along with the fact I've loved this since I was little. But I didn't want to get something that everyone would have. Kinda like the tribal tattoo thingie that everyone has.. so I'm a little confused as to whether I'll go with the original plan or a variation or something completely different.

I think that tatoo is beautiful. My son has a tatoo that he and his friends designed.
They took it to a guy that has a stellar rep for tatoos and it really came out nice.

Re: What success (big or small) did you have today?

i know this is gonna sound silly, but i have been struggling with exercising and getting to it. Today while copying about 9 depo transcripts all in a row each about 300 pages, i started doing laps just walk jogging sorta in barefeet around the office. I know its not much but it was something. It took about 45 minutes to copy all of these and in between i did this.

My friend brought me her urban rebounder to try and instead of meeting with her to transfer it, i told her i would go to her car and transfer it to mine at lunch to get me out of the office and i had to walk to the garage and to her car on one floor and then carry it to mine. It wasn't much but it was me moving. If that makes sense.

Its kinda silly i know but i feel this was a success for me today.

Re: What success (big or small) did you have today?

abstract, this is one of things that 2big would call free exercise. doing movement of some kind in between chores and work.
she calls it free exercise, i call it doing a 2big! lol
