Little Wins
Along the way to achieving my ultimate weight loss and health goals, it’s important to celebrate the little wins….
- My pants are looser. I noticed the change in my shirts last month, and this month my pants have felt looser and even started to ride a little lower so that I continuously have to pull them up and re-tuck in my undershirt.
- I can reach the gas cap lever in my car! It was getting pretty dicey for a while there. It is located on the floor between the pedals and driver’s seat, and when I was at my largest weight, I’d have to hold my breath and lunge for it. Now I can reach down easily and without pain.
- I’ve stayed 100% WFPB for ¼ of the year already!
- A coworker noticed that I’ve been losing weight.
- I reached and surpassed my first 50lb milestone; my visiting teachers took progress pictures.
- I came home from an appointment last Saturday having put some potatoes in my countertop convection oven and then forgotten about them. My first thought as I opened the door was “Mmm, smells like brownies.” A few minutes later when I cut into one of the still-warm potatoes I thought, “This smells delicious!” Although I never before liked potatoes any way other than mashed with butter, I may be on my way to becoming a potato lover.
