What's Your Most Recent NSV

My husband told me my jeans were too baggy and I needed one new pair. Old size was 22W, and I lost only 4 lbs so I grabbed a 20W and an 18W off the rack. On a whim I tried the 18W and they fit! A tiny bit snug, but they fit! That was Saturday. I wore them yesterday, Monday, only 2 days later... and they are a tiny bit loose in the hips and legs now. Four lbs and I lost two jeans sizes. I imagine that Goodwill will be my new favorite place to shop now!

A hotel towel wrapped all the way around me and even overlapped itself. I don't remember the last time I didn't have a gap.

That. Is. Awesome!

I so love this thread! Mine is photo related also - during our vacay someone took a picture of me and the little ones and I did not wince when I looked at it.....

For the first time in over a week, I forced myself out of bed early and walked the dog nearly two miles. Oh yeah, and I ran 2 loads in the washer and hung them up to dry, all before making my lunch and leaving for work this morning. Big whoop!

I wore a new smaller sized outfit to my golf tournament and dinner last night and I got so many compliments that it became a little surreal. The thought actually crossed my mind that I was being pranked! Comments on my toned arms, smaller waist, even my skin. I narrowed my eyes and checked the faces around me for signs of conspiratorial giggling, but none to be found. Just a great group of supportive friends noticing my hard work this last year all at the same moment.

With the Awesome button available I tend to congratulate people on this thread a lot less frequently than I used to, but since I'm here bragging about my NSV anyway, let me take a moment and congratulate the two posters above.

@thenananator I know exactly what you mean. I wince a lot less nowadays but I haven't hit no wincing at all territory yet. High five for that.

@cschmitz110515 congrats on getting yourself out there for a good walk and getting some chores done early. Increased energy, a cleaner house, and living life more fully are big goals on my list.

I am on holiday and am positively seeking out photo opportunities, whereas I used to hide. The fat woman doesn't live here any more ☺

Last year my AST/ALT was 385 & 400. Today they are 24 & 30.
Last year my cholesterol & triglycerides were 286 & 513. Today they are 187 & 130.
Last year my fasting glucose was 174. Today it is 83. Every lab was perfectly within normal limits. Attached note from my doctor: "You are a rock star with the weight loss. I am so proud of you - keep up the hard work!"

My NSV is around recovering. ..I'm on vacation and I had decided to eat at maintenance. The last few days have been a lot higher, and, most importantly I haven't felt good after the fact. (Too full and bloated) and not really enjoying my food . Today, I'm at my regular deficit but still worked in a G &T and some chocolate and most importantly enjoyed my food and feel full- not stuffed. I feel proud!

I walked to 2 appointments downtown this week, and walked home.

My "hard" workout was ever so slightly easier today

Noticed the other day that I actually have little "gunz" now! Took a LONG time, but they are starting to show!

Mental victory - I have a date tonite and have to leave for the date about an hour after I get off work. I am heading home then straight to the gym for the 15-20 minutes I can take for a work out before I leave for the date - only because I need to be in the gym and it's now important to me. That's new. Generally I'd blow off the gym for the date - now it's me first. Then other things.

The 30 Day Shred will totally change your body for the better! I did it for 60 days, and it changedy life!! Stick with it and you will she how worth it it is.

Today I got back into working out for the first time in over a year. Got 15 minutes into the first stage of 30 Day Shred and am feeling quite proud of myself. I stopped pretty much any effort in the last couple of years and I kept saying "next week, tomorrow, next week" and today I just thought "I've got the time, why not?" and went for it. I'm going to feel it tomorrow when I try for the full set, but I think it'll be worth it!

Well done to everyone on their success and I wish you all good things for the future!

A stranger at the gym came up to me yesterday and told me that she could see a huge difference in the way I looked from the time I joined (about 3 months ago) to now.

I took a course to be a fitness instructor and everyone else there was 22. When the instructor went around the room to ask why we were taking the course I said "because I'm 53 and need to start thinking about a plan for when I retire". The guy in front of me said "Wow you look great for an old person!!".. Really, word for word!!! Yes, I did thank him!!
