Tonight I stopped eating my dinner as soon as I felt full. I'm normally a clear-the-plate kind of gal. That's huge for me! I wrapped up the rest and put it away for tomorrow's lunch. 😁

I've been sick for about 7 weeks (this virus, you guys! WTH?). Normally, this is where I fall down in a heap and go "I'll start again when I'm better" and never do. This time, I persisted as best as I could without logging and managed to lose 2kgs. It's a fraction of what I would have lost if I was well (averaging 0.7kg/wk or 1.5lbs) but considering I spent two weeks literally sitting and trying to breathe through the coughing fits, and the fact that I'm still not exercising or even hitting my 10,000 steps... I'm pretty darn impressed.

@workinonit1956 @motivatedmartha @HDBKLM Thank you!!

This level is complete. A brief enjoyment, and onto the next level! Plus, HELLO BIRTHDAY WEEK so great timing on the Fall of the Dragonpants.

I'm not sure if this counts as an NSV but honestly I'm feeling so victorious I wanted to share -- I gathered up enough courage to enter the scary free weights section of my gym and have officially started a lifting programme! Week 1 is complete and I'm feeling awesome mentally and totally wiped (in a good way) physically!

Just going to focus on that instead of the fact that for no obvious reason my recent losses have vanished over 2 days without change in diet. Ignoring the scale this week but satisfied with other victories

Your lifting causes tears in the muscle, which when your body repairs them, makes the muscles larger.

For the first couple of weeks these tears will result in water retention.

Will balance out shortly and you should see a drop.

Oh man this is so good to know, thank you so much for sharing that bit of info!

My watch is getting loose. It's a small thing,but I'll take it!

My Fitbit is getting loose! I'm going to have to go to a size small band. Agreed, it's a small thing but I'm kinda thrilled!

This was THE best feeling, I’m still happy about when mine needed to go down a few notches, and that was in 2016. Congratulations!

Weekend NSV’s: I logged everything despite not feeling like it at all, after two days of drinking and munching and one day of being hungover and munching. Also, yesterday I went for a run and realized halfway through that I had accidentally skipped a week in C25K. I finished the workout anyway, and managed to do the entire run without cheating. So, booyah, I’m now halfway through week 5 instead of week 4! I even ordered some new running gear from Amazon, both because my laundry cycle can’t keep up with all the sweaty stuff, and because I might accidentally like running again.

A whole pile of my Summer clothes that I couldn' t wear last Summer are almost big on me now! 😁 The really big ones are in a bag for Goodwill!

I worked up from walking a mile in 45 minutes to doing it in 28, and now I can handle five miles a day without huffing and puffing. It took two months.

What does NVS stand for ? I see it means something good ?

Non-Scale Victory

I thought I was good to go with my swim trunks; I have been using them paddle boarding with no problem. But the elastic is fully compressed and I didn't think about what happens when diving or swimming without a rash guard. The elastic expands a bit...

So I need to get new trunks with a drawstring that goes all the way around.

While on vacation I wore a skirt ALL DAY with no chub rub. None. At all.

Earlier in the i did an XC cycling race.My husband was very embarrassed by my riding. Yesterday did the course again and he was very pleased by my progress,my technical skills and handling of the bike increased. And i did not push once.It is a beginner course but still improved.
