week of NSV's!
So...I know we're not supposed to brag, but I've had a great week! First, on Monday a friend who I hadn't seen in a few weeks saw me and asked, "What are you doing? You look like a whole new person!" Then on Friday, my boss asked if I have been losing weight and asked again, "What are you doing?" I was proud to say I was…

Jacket NSV
I bought a 2 piece ski jacket 3 years ago (a waterproof outer shell and a removable fleece liner). When I bought the jacket the liner fit fine, but the shell was snug (with or without the liner). I bought it because I figured I'd lose some weight and would just wear the liner until they both fit. Well, that shell has been…

My Very First NSV
Hi Everyone! I've been on MFP for 3 weeks now and yesterday I had my first NSV. I was shopping for some new sneakers in kohl's yesterday and these two ladies were really struggling to find some shoes. They were confused on the difference between running shoes and walking shoes. I happened to be on my way to the gym so I…

Blue sky's nothing but blue sky's.
Oh what a glorious morning. As much as I am looking so forward to not seeing any more white anywhere on the ground ever again, or at least for the next 6-7 months. (So much so I am seriously contemplating removing all white from my wardrobe, house, even my kids closets) I am so tired of the color. I do have to admit, when…

My Before and During :) 198-->141lbs :) *warning skin!*
Hi everyone, Been using MFP for about 3 months now, and I absolutely adore this community and the friends I have made on here. I recently switched to a low-carb diet after finding that my weightloss was stalling a bit, since I made that change, I have lost a lot of inches and quite a few pounds in the process. Anyway, I…

NSV- Shopping
I have a conference to go to downtown tomorrow and needed something professional to wear. So I went "shopping". In my own closet! And things that haven't fit for over a year (probably 2) fit! My blazer that didn't button! Button down shirts that gapped. Work pants that I couldn't button 2 months ago. Saved me a lot a…

Feeling good and want to share
I had some photos taken in the gym today to promote my 10K run for the Sussex MS centre - And for the first time in years I look like an athlete (all be it an amateur one): To put that in perspective - Before the diet (September 2010)

A total scale victory
It is no secret that my entire life I've struggled with my weight. Lying to my friends and more importantly to myself saying tommorrow or next week or my personal favorite next Monday one last weekend of junk and alcohol then I'm gonna do something about . I planned a new year with a new start but after being really…

I have a few NSV's and a SV
Today my son and I went out and were grocery shopping and he wanted to buy some snack type food. He actually turned the box around and said "I better look and see how many calories in a serving before I put it in the cart". He then decided it was too unhealthy and found something lower calorie and healthier. He is 10. I…

"Fat" clothes - keep em or burn em
I already know what I plan to do with my fat clothes - I still have my clothes from my highest weight - in a box. They haven't fit in 3 years and I work hard every day to ensure they never do again! I still have a ways to go and my ultimate goal is to take a pic of me standing in ONE pants leg of my size 28 pants. LOL. SO…

38 pounds lost - progress pics
Well here I am on the cusp of moving from obese to overweight. I started at 220 lbs and I'm down to 182. I don't have many pictures of me at 220 because I wasn't too fond of being photographed at that size. The 182 pictures were taken tonight, and though I'm not particularly proud of those either, I know I look and feel a…

Excited to meet first mini goal! NSV's
I'm so excited! Today I met my first mini goal - early!

1st 30 days of Chalean Extreme
I finished the Burn Phase of Chalean Extreme this week and will be moving to the Push Phase. I lost 4.25 inches all over. My weight stayed basically the same, fluctuating up and down a lb or more. I'm about 6 lbs from goal so I'm not worried about the weight and I'm very happy with the inches lost. My eating has been awful…

Ahhhhhh to see 25 again *sigh*
After a horrible year, I gained back 16 of the 36 pounds I had lost. Instead of wallowing (sp) in my unhealthiness, and proceding to gain back the 36 +10 as I had done in my past life, I corrected my step. It has taken some time to get back on track. A few set backs with illness and new job keeping me in denial mode a bit…
