    The scale says I haven't lost a pound, but after 6 weeks of interval running and strength training, I've lost 4.25 inches total and was nearly able to button my pre-pregnancy jeans today without any creative material stretching. 6 weeks ago, I couldn't get those jean over my hips.

    Went "shopping" in my basement (where all my skinnier clothes went to languish) and now have 2 pair of jeans and a pair of dress slacks i can fit into again.

    Feeling so good at the end of my 5k run this morning that I managed to Sprint the last 100m.

    I tried on a tank top that didn't fit. Now it fits.

    No literally not one ounce. Its a non scale victory. I have not lost a single ounce in weight but even as self critical as I can be I can see there is a difference in my muscle tone and shape. :-)

    This is my first post ever! I ran/jog half an hour without stopping for the first time ever.

    This is the perfect place for your first post and congratulations on your run.

    My NSV is that I packed up a box of 3X shirts for Goodwill that are now way to big for me. :smiley:

    Thank you!! Good for you too!

    Tuesday I almost knocked myself down, my alarm went off and I was so deeply asleep that in my hurry to turn it off I hit my lip pretty hard on the night stand, but even tough it hurt I thought: "Ok, I'm already awake let's do it, elliptical time".
    I hope I can run this weekend, it has been raining.

    My BMI has finally slipped down from overweight into healthy! It's still in the lower range of healthy, but it's progress! :D

    For the past four years I haven't done much except play video games for 12+ hours, eat fast food, and my daily exercise has been a walk to the fridge or bathroom. Two weeks ago I decided to get in shape and during that time I've spent a maximum total of just ONE hour on the games. I feel so much more productive!

    Also, my workplace has an unwritten rule: "If it is your birthday you MUST bring treats (preferably the kind that comes with sugar)." In the past two weeks two people have brought lots of yummy treats but I didn't eat them and instead went for a nice walk outside so they weren't taunting me as I ate lunch. :smile: Next week I plan to bring this count up to three!

    Went shopping in my own closet. Found a suit I bought in 2007 but never wore because I blow past the size so fast.

    It fit.

    Bought a pair of pants just before Christmas. Didn't bother trying them on in the store, came home, and there was no way in hell I was going to get the button done up. Could have driven a truck through that gap.

    Just tried them on. Button and zip.... no problem :smile:

    I still have one hell of a long way to go, but it's little things like this that keep me going. Aaaand, now I'm starting to cry.

    I kind of had an epiphany 1.5 weeks ago. I was feeling bored and lonely one afternoon, so I ordered spring rolls. Mid meal I realised my lips were coated with oil used to deep fry the rolls and I felt such a strong wave of guilt. I haven't touched anything "bad" since then! Although I haven't lost any weight, I feel really good about myself :)

    The UPS guy walked into my office and he's NOT a flirty/creepy type but he said, "You have a new hairstyle or you're losing a LOT of weight or both...what is going on here?? Because you are almost unrecognizable from a month ago"

    And that's happened in various versions THREE times this week. Wat!? Yay!! (I am trying to grow my hair but I am at the same weight since mid-December so this is a great NSV for me)

    So yesterday at the gym was a basic 3 miler followed by arms and abs. Since I knew it was a shorter treadmill run, I wanted to see how long I could run without slowing down.
    I did my normal 3 minute speed walking warm up, then ran for 25 minutes STRAIGHT, varying speed from 4.8-5.1!! I psyched myself out into slowing down to 4.0 for 3 minutes then went back up for the last 7 minutes. My pace time was FINALLY sub 13 minutes (12:40!)! This sounds so slow compared to some of the other runners I saw at the gym but for me..this was huge. I'd never run longer than 10 minutes straight on the treadmill until yesterday.

    Today I got to the gym earlier than the class I was waiting for. I decided to kill time with an easy 20min run, but ended up really enjoying a much more challenging speed without struggling in the slightest. I think I'm becoming someone who can just run for fun :smile:

    Had to put in at least 5 more notches on my belts, and in some cases my 'small' belts that would go under my boobs for tops are now for my waist lol!

    When looking straight on in the mirror, my waist used to be a single indentation on either side below my chest. That single point is now elongated... I have a solid 3-4" of slim before i curve for hips & chest. I have a nice waistline again!
