140 flights of stairs and it was no big deal.

Worked out hard enough today to get exercise endorphins. Haven't done that in a while. It was amazing. Been concentrating on pure weight loss for a year. Time to get a good fitness base now.

That is a lot of stairs.

I bought a weight bench yesterday and am super excited to get that sucker out of the box and start using it tonight...me excited to exercise!

Ordered new work jeans the other day in my usual size. That brand always fits so I ripped the tags off and went to work. Half way to work I realised they were actually too big and I should have ordered a size smaller! Victory, but a bit annoying too lol

I haven't taken my measurements in a while (middle of October), so I decided to this morning. I've lost 6" off my hips, 2" off my waist, and 1" off my neck.

Six. Inches. Of. *kitten*-fat. Gone.

made it through a bunch of holiday parties without over indulging to the point of hating myself

Being able to fit into a medium sized dress!

Cocoa_Jean

I was in a hurry and grab pants that were too small, and forgot they were too small because they FIT!

A woman at my gym told me yesterday that my muscles looked really defined. Yay!

My kettlebell swings are getting better. Yay!

The pants I bought in October are getting loose. Yay!

went to work meeting today and they had tons of dessert with lunch and two breaks with pastries etc...all looked good.. I ate none of it!! I felt good not eating it. I had my lunch and choose what I could eat like chciken breast and salad...good day!

I went to the theatre this weekend. I actually fit in the seat quite comfortably!

This morning, I had to put a new hole in my belt. It's officially way too big. Still want to get some more miles out of it. It feels like such an accomplishment. I'm shrinking out of my old clothes and I shall never return to them.

goldenday

Deciding to commit to running my first 10k.

sugarandspice0404

I went into a Levi's store yesterday as they were having a buy one get one free offer. I knew I had to replace my favourite size 31 jeans as I'm constantly having to belt them, so I tried on the size 30. There was still room in the back, so I put on the size 29 which fit perfectly! It was one of my goals to be in a 20-something waist and now I've done it!

SalvationMountain41

The little blurb "If every day were like today..." under my food diary is now under 200 lbs!

Lanet27

This is a really weird one but a couple of days ago I had an NS Victory ( I guess) that entailed a very hot buff guy <but total stranger> complimenting me at the gym.. He said, and I quote "you are looking good" at the water fountain.

spikeyhair

Completed my 4th consecutive session at the gym

tcunbeliever

had to get my dad to punch 3 new holes in my belt...I do have a smaller belt, but it's still too small right now...

Madwife2009

A complete stranger asked me yesterday how much weight I'd lost. I obviously must have looked at her a bit oddly as she then said that she sees me nearly every day out walking (seems I go past her house) and that she really likes the fact that my children are usually with me. She then said that she's noticed how much I've shrunk and just wondered how much I'd lost!

That totally made my day.

I suffered a shoulder injury recently, that compounding with other injuries kept me out of the gym for months. Recently most of my injuries have gotten much better so I have slowly been testing the waters.
Today I did 15 minutes on the elliptical machine (E-Mach as I like to call it) at a moderate level and three sets of P/U's 4x3x3 I also did 6 this morning when I woke up. No ill-effects in fact I could have pushed harder on the E-Mach. Baby steps!
Considering I just started testing things a week ago I'm feeling really great about that.

The loss of chocolate as one of my four major food groups has been one of my biggest challenges while losing weight. So I figured out how to squeeze it in. Every day I put 9 Hershey Kisses (1 serving) in a bowl and I get to eat them whenever I'm overcome with need. And I log it of course. My NSV is over the past week, almost every morning when I go to refill my bowl there have been one or more kisses left in the bowl--THAT I FORGOT ABOUT! I'm thinking I may actually be weaning myself off of them inadvertently!

That is really cool! I'm a chocoholic and have some every night. Sometimes I just eat it out of habit, rather than want or hunger. I need to find a neat solution like this.

I think part of the trick is that since I know I can have it, I don't get panicky or obsessed about it--so I'm not thinking about it as much.

This might be the biggest NSV for me of all. I've been on MFP since July 25 2016 and have lost a little over 30 lbs and dropped from 22W to size 16 pants. All this time, my husband has tolerated my changed eating habits and put up with my need to exercise, but he did not join in the fun. Yesterday he said, "OK - how does this Fitness Pal logging stuff work? Can you set me up on it too? I want to lose weight like you are doing."

HE SIGNED UP AND STARTED LOGGING! And he made snack packs of carrots for both of us to take to work! I'm so excited that he has seen the light - I know not to push him too hard too fast but WOW! I am so happy for him! Sorry for all the exclamation points but I'm sure some of you know how I feel.

I bought a tube of Pringles the other day.

Last night I had a craving for them and ate 1/2 a serving. Seriously, I had 8 chips.

Not that long ago the tube would be gone in 2 sittings.

Your tubes made TWO servings?!? Mine were only one.

Everyone knows how hard can be to get back on track once you fall off the wagon, right? My NSV is that I have gotten back on the wagon and am in an excellent state of mind right now. I feel great and confident and willing to discipline myself in terms of food.

Learned how to front squat on Monday and was able to do 3 sets of 90lb squats. That last rep of my final set was a huge struggle, but I did it.
