    My belt is 4 notches tighter! I am wearing a couple of shirts that have been in the "skinny me' part of the closet for a long time! Feels good to see these changes along the way.

    I... my brain needs stats to see progress so today I measured my thighs (also known as my tree trunks!) and I'm down 4.5 inches per thigh since my highest weight.

    Wowwie Kazzzowwiee - hooray, you! That's great!

    Ha! "Wowwie Kazzzowwiee" makes me now think "Holy inch loss batman!"

    Such great NSV's everyone. My daughter works for a small boutique store, and has a discount, a couple times a year they get a little more discount and we went shopping. I got several new shirts and tried a lot of them in small and medium and if there was very little difference, I got the small, knowing I will be 10 lbs less in a few months. I don't want to invest money in clothes that I will soon outgrow. I usually hate shopping, think nothing looks good or right on me. I usually try it on and all I see it fat, but now I see the clothes and not every problem with myself. This is a huge victory for me.
    Tomorrow I am taking 5 totes of clothes from me and my daughter to a consignment store.
    I am still 15 lbs away from my goal, want to get a little more strict on my calories and try to stay away from chocolate, it seems when I eat one piece, I just have to have more. I have been at a stand still the last month or so, but I haven't been eating as well as i should be. I know I can do it.
    I almost like exercising now. Used to totally hate it, now I don't hate it, glad when it's done, feel ok while doing it, and sometimes feel like I could of done more. I will add 5 more minutes to the eliptical time tomorrow.

    Well done!!! And with the chocolate thing, try individually wrapped pieces. Take out one piece from a hard to reach place, put the packet back, walk away and THEN eat your choc. Good luck!

    For weeks I have been in a bad place with diet and exercise. The good thing is, I've barely gained. I'm mostly 'at maintenance'. Bad thing is, I still need to lose about ten kilos. So today was my plan to turn it around a bit and it has worked really well. I told myself what I could have today, and I have stuck to it! So here's hoping this is day one of the next phase. Again, again, and again. But this one may stick. Here's to being sexy for Halloween too!

    I ran 6.5 miles with the local run club today! I usually run 4 miles, so this was a real stretch. Averaged 11 minutes/mile so I'm feeling pretty happy about it. It's been about 25 years since I ran 6 miles.

    Three years ago I bought a really nice Berghaus softshell jacket in UK size L. It was a bit small for me but was an end of season bargain and I thought I would drop weight to fit in it by the following autumn.

    I did not and it has hung unworn in the closet ever since. It is getting a bit chilly where I live at the moment so I tried it on and it fits great now. I now have a nice jacket to wear this winter :)

    Size ten jeans! I've worn the same style of jeans for the last five years - I just keep buying new pairs when the old ones wear out. Well in January I wore a 14, in June I bought 12s for the first time in years, and today I am wearing a brand new pair of size 10 jeans! I haven't worn a ten since early high school when I first started wearing misses sizes instead of juniors, and I almost immediately switched to 12s then. This is such a good feeling!

    When I got out of bed this morning I was stunned by how much thinner my upper legs looked as they appeared coming out from under the covers.

    Went to buy a new skirt, picked up three sizes (UK10-14) because my brain is having size disconnect and the waist on the 10 looked impossible...guess which one was the best fit :)

    I love this! I used to avoid looking at my shadow but it was one of the first things I noticed when I lost weight!

    I've only just started tracking again after having 2 kids and have lost 8 lbs in 12 days; yesterday my pants fell down :P. Good thing I was at home when that nsv hit!

    Last night while looking at the computer screen ( ;) ), I leaned forward and put my hand around the side of my thigh. The thumb was on the top center, and my fingers went waaay around to the mid-underside. Weird!

    I decided I wanted an anniversary band for our 5th year married /10 yr together present, which is next year. BUT I realized that I dropped half a ring size when my engagement and wedding rings kept falling off more frequently. So instead of re-sizing, I just got a smaller banded ring to keep the others on until I loose the rest of this weight. That way I can get them all re-sized at the same time...I should look at shoes if that's what happened with my hands maybe my feet are a different size too!(I wear a LOT of sandals so I haven't noticed if my shoe size have changed yet.)

    My wedding ring slides off my finger with no effort whatsoever.

    I can sit cross-legged on my kitchen chairs!! I didn't even realize I had done it until I tried to stand up. . .

    Yay!

    I threw out all my big girl panties and bras. I was hedging about it, and my husband even said, "If you want to hang onto them, go ahead", but then I said, "I am NOT going back to that weight!" Felt weird, but good. :)

    I threw on a large long sleeve t-shirt today and thought I might have stretched it out on accident because a couple of weeks ago when I got it, it was kind of tight around the belly. So I tried on a large t-shirt that I just got yesterday and it fit well too! Making progress!!

    Went to the store yesterday to purchase a dress for an event and purchased one 2 sizes smaller than anything in my closet! It's even a little too big but my mind can't comprehend going any smaller right now :p

    Oy. There are a few. I fell of the wagon back in July BUT I maintained the whole time. In fact I still lost about 5lbs.

    I've quit the gym, but started working out in my own home. I've finished C25K and am working towards 10K. I've also signed up for a trial Krav Maga class. Tomorrow.

    I've also begun the process for applying for my Masters degree.

    Oh and my check up today was beautiful. Just need to lose another 20lbs ;)

    All that off the wagon. I'm really hoping I can fall back on!

    I love all your NSV's! Way to go!

    My NSV is not too flashy but I went for my first walk today in a long time and my time surprised me. I can't wait to go again tomorrow!

    Today I did a 5 hour zumbathon. I danced every single song and maintained a high level of energy the whole time.

    Afterwards I rewarded myself with pizza, but I did a homemade one rather than takeaway like I was tempted to do the calories were still within a decent range (Zumba had earned me 3000 calories lol)

    I also managed to squeeze in a quick cycle. Now my only ache is the base of my feet because my socks weren't ideal. My legs and arms are fine so far.

    It amazes me how 2 years ago a one hour class was my limit!

    I had my longest run to date today. Four and a half miles in 55 minutes. I may not be the fastest runner but the speed will come in time. Or not. I don't really care, I just want to run.
