Non-Scale Victories #6


button


I'm going to resist the urge to list all the things I did this week that were definitely not victories and only focus on the good!

We went to a Chinese Buffet for Mother's Day. Oh no... Huh? I am proud to say that, although I ate all the things I love, I ate less because I made a trip to the salad bar first! This is unheard of for me - I love a good salad, but I usually never "waste" my time when there are so many other yummy things to chose from!

I did some major twisting of my ankle over the weekend and I could have stopping my C25K or backyard workout, but I didn't. I did the best I could on C25K and didn't lie to myself - I ended early and ended the workout. So, I'll have to do it again when I could have probably moved on to Week4.

I'm also pretty proud that I didn't succumb to snacking while the kids were gone yesterday and I made one yummy dinner!

What are your non-scale victories for the week?

  1. Making it to the salad bar FIRST is huge! I have gotten to the point that I don't go and tempt myself at the China Buffet anymore. I do well with out of sight, out of mind. I think you had a great week! Be sure to take care of your ankle. You must rest it or risk permanent damage.
    Way to go!!

    1. Thanks for the concern! I already have a bit of permanent damage from spraining it so often when I was younger, so it pops out of place quite easily because it is so stretched out and full of scar tissue. No worries! It feels fine now!

  2. Mmmm salad! I love hearing how eating the rainbow ( salad) helped you to eat less of the things you love. It also shows that you had a ton of self control and still got to eat the things you love!! That is awesome!
