NSV day came at the perfect time this month!
Yesterday I turned 60. The date that I had been dreading for months arrived, and instead of feeling depressed and ashamed of myself, I felt proud and content with what I have been able to achieve. On April 5th I embarked on a journey of sweeping changes and I have far surpassed every expectation that I had for myself.
So my NSV? Turning 60 didn't suck.
Happy belated birthday @bradkcrew We must've been posting around the same time last night, because I didn't see your post about your birthday! Kudos for having a day on your birthday too!!!2 -

Thanks @Mrs_Hoffer
Maybe that should have been my NSV--that I was able to disassociate an occasion from food! It's a tough psychological task when my whole life every occasion, holiday, celebration, and event has went hand in hand with food and drink--and LOTS of it.
I wasn't sure I would make it through October without any pass days, but now I know I can. First, the 15k after party had food and unlimited beer, but I felt fine passing on all of that. My son wanted to have a "celebration" dinner, but I declined. Then my birthday turned out to be no big deal either. Traditionally I will opt for Red Lobster for unlimited shrimp. This year I substituted shrimp cocktail at home and was happy with it.
Next up Thanksgiving. Possibly my favorite meal of the year. And already one of my sons asked me what I was going to do about Christmas cookies and candy, etc.--it is tough when food and drink are integral to family traditions....

I couldn't think of an NSV and 15th was a pass day which was why I was so slow to post! I hate posting pass days. But as I settle back into this I think there will be more and so long as I consistently show up here, even my pass days are not like my old normal days.
So, my NSV is showing up back at UAC every day and feeling like I've taken control of my eating.7 -
Yes yes and yes
NSV I think since I have very consistent about my food, I have done less emotional eating. As a result I am spending more time dealing with the actual issues that promote the emotional eating. I don't know if this makes any sense.6 -
@jamcnewman congrats on recognizing and addressing the slip! That's the key. Very glad to see you continuing to post here.1

I only tracked breakfast and lunch for Friday and Saturday so both days will be a pass day.
