What's Your Most Recent NSV

I spent the day in NYC yesterday, and according to my Fitbit I walked 9.5 miles so I felt very comfortable going to my favorite gluten free bakery/cafe and totally ordering 3 of their amazing (large) cookies in different flavors and sharing them with my husband.

I ran! Just to then end of the drive and back but i ran!

That's all I could run 7 weeks ago and I felt like I was going to die, now I can for 52 mins. As soon as you get started, it gets surprising how quickly it gets easier and easier. At the moment, I don't find running much harder than walking, and it's heaps easier to run than it was to walk when I got my fitbit on July 3 this year. Then walking 2.7 km walking was agony.

Broke my swimming distance record again.
And shaved 9 minutes off the previous distance mark. Record was 17.6km.
More it is 20km. That took 7 hours and 9minutes. I don't think i'll try to break this record.
I shaved that morning and had 5 O'clock shadow when I was finished.

I walked a full 5k today!!! I was slow, but it's a new personal best regardless.
59 minutes to go 3.24 miles.
I'd love to be able to do 10k in that time eventually.

This was the first weekend in forever that I didn't have any restaurant meal, either dining out or food delivery. I usually struggle on the weekends to make good choices, but this one I made at least as good food choices as I did during the week, if not better.

3 miles an hour isn't fast but it's a good solid walking pace. Keep going, you will be amazed at how you progress! Consider trying c25k, it sounds like you would be ready for it!

We walk at the same pace!! From experience it seems for every 10 lbs lost my pace increases by 1 min. Regardless if you are trying to lose weight or not you will improve over time. Congrats on today's PB!

I went to the mall to buy "riding" boots yesterday. I managed to squish one foot in a boot, the other wasn't happening. How is this an NSV? Even though the boots were too small, they were NORMAL calf, not WIDE calf. In that, I consider it a NSV!

Someone who hasn't seen me in person since late August walked up and raved about how my face has changed!

I'm SO jealous! I'm losing everywhere, except on my calves. Absolutely nothing is moving there, even though I've lost 36 lbs so far. I'm guessing it'll be the very last place where the fat decides to go - if it ever does ... So yay for normal calf boots!

I had 3 NSV this weekend.

First one I noticed: My family and I have seasons tickets to the theatre. For all plays this season the seats were uncomfortable because the metal bars that support the chair arms would dig into my hips. Yesterday’s play, my hips didn’t touch the arms at all and I felt comfortable through the whole play.

Second NSV: I have a cruise at the end of December which is a huge motivator for me. I have 2 old dresses that used to fit that I wanted to be able to take for the formal nights on the boat. This morning I tried them on again and could zip up both. They were a little snug, but should be perfect for the cruise in a month & a bit.

And lastly - today my daughter and I got gym memberships and worked out for 60 minutes. It’s one more positive step towards being healthy and making fitness a priority in our lives.

My sister in law was listing out how many desserts she was getting/baking for Thanksgiving and I told her it was too much for 8 people and asked her to reduce a few things as she always wants to force it home with us and she is also trying to lose weight and she needs to do it for her health.

I am 15 pounds away from my end of the year bench press goal.

I ran outside today for the first time!

Before now I have been too self conscious to run outside (apart from running a few metres for a bus the odd time!), but since I was on holiday in a quiet area I thought I would give it a go. I found it harder than on the treadmill and my pace was too fast as my headphones died early on, but now I've done it once, the next time should be easier!

Hurrah!!! Once you get used to running outside, running on the treadmill becomes harder, actually.

I still can't run for longer than a minute at a time. I still can't do a sit up properly. But as of today, I can do this:
(We won't talk about what it takes to get up there and especially down. There's a lot of thudding)
