Non-Scale Victory - # 15

It has been quite some time since I have participated in a non-scale victory link up.
Thing is, I just really lost my flow and wasn’t trying.  I was getting by, but not progressing and felt like there wasn’t much to brag about.  I didn’t walk every day or log food or even really attempt to eat better.
However, over the course of the past week and a half, that has changed.  The “shift” occurred and I am back at it.
Part of it is a couple great experiences with my weight loss support group. Another part is my walking challenge with Julie and knowing that I am significantly behind and now need to work my tail off to catch up.
So, I have a couple victories to share today
  1.  Getting back on track.  I pretty much lost my focus from the very beginning of this year.  It’s now November and I plan to be lighter by the end of the year.  I’m not setting a certain number goal, just a basic one to weight less by December 31 than I do now.
  2. I walked my tail off this week, Tuesday in particular.  I’m proud that I am making a dent in my deficit for the competition.
  3.  I made shortbread yesterday and only had about 5.  None today and no real craving for them today after yesterday's go with them.
  4. I didn’t make myself a lunch last night for work today.  I bantered back and forth with myself this morning over it.....make it....buy it...make it....buy it.  In the end, I compromised.  I packed some fruit and veggies and on my walk picked up a 6" ham and cheese sandwich.
Here is to another great week with the hopes I have some more to share next week.
Check out the link up everyone!  Very inspirational
