I am patting myself on the back today. My hubby is deployed and like any marriage...some days it's really a lot of work to remember why I stay married...especially when we are trying to converse via chat and nothing is coming across right...BUT...where I might normally eat a bag of chips and wallow in my misery...today I picked up a cookie, stared longingly at it...put it down and went out and ran/walked on my treadmill for 30 min.

Huge accomplishment for me. The start of bucking that stress eating habit I have. It would have been so easy just to eat the darn thing and skip exercising. The best part was realizing I didn't really want that cookie. I wanted the exercise. Hoping this NSV becomes a habit!

Way to go girlie!

Wonderful to be in control, isn't it? Keep it up!!

Wow that is truly an incredible victory! What a breakthrough!

My hubby is being deployed next month I can't wait till he sees me when he returns and I have lost another 20-30 pounds.

So exciting! And a big "thank you" to you and your husband for your sacrifice for my freedom! I don't know how you do it!
