I battled social anxiety last week to go to the gym (I only do strength/lifting at the gym) by myself as my gym partner was engaged in a work event. I felt good coming out of that week having gone three times! By myself! To lift!

I did a size check last night at the mall (the electric company killed our internet which is also our tv, etc) and so we went out to eat and to walk the mall rather than the neighborhood. Gave us new sights and such. I can get INTO the pants that are a size smaller than the dragonpants, but not quite button them up yet. Well, I could have buttoned them up if I wanted them to bite into me, lol. Another 5kg or so, and I'll try 'em on again. I didn't buy them, because they didn't call to me like the dragonpants did oh so long ago.

Progress is progress, at least!

Great progress!

had a whippersnapper at the gym the other night look me right in the eye and say "shouldnt you be home baking cookies"...backstory: it was 11 pm....I looked like shizza but had to get my lifts in. He and his buddy were monopolizing the lat pull down so I said...I am going to work in with you two, if thats okay. Then he hits me with the comment. Well, peeps, my retort was not nice at all but effective. His buddy laughed his head off and the smart mouth guy had nothing more to say to this old lady. Had a PR to boot , likely the adrenaline from the exchange. the NSV: do what you gotta do to be true to you.

You gotta share your retort. Can't leave us hanging like that!

I haven't added any sugar to my food in over 2 weeks! I thought I would die without it, but have learned to like the taste of things just as they are

Fitted into a dress I last wore in 2016. Not flattering but it zips up.

Walking through the aisle of a restaurant without having to check if I may hit any chairs ... priceless

Actually finishing an entire container of Greek yogurt. (Don’t worry, not all at one time!) It usually goes bad or what I deem is bad by the time I get to the bottom, lol.

Lifted this morning with three other guys. The boys were rushing through the deadlifts - I needed more rest time between sets. Told them to leave the trap bar loaded when they were done. Did the cardio workout with them. Went back and did my last work set at 235 before I left the gym.

My BMI is officially “normal”, as of today. Started out “obese” in March of this year at 32.3, I’m now at 25 🎉

Not sure what NSV stands for, but I think this fits...

I've read through this thread hoping someone would ask. Now if someone will just answer.

NSV Stands for NON-SCALE VICTORY

Held a plank for a full 60 seconds, previous long was 46 seconds. I know it isn't much, but still...
Also, did 3x10 deep squats last night, and my knees didn't hurt! WOO-HOO!

Nsv?? What is that??

Non-Scale Victory. Something positive that happened as a result of weight loss that doesn't involve a scale.
