Monday, I fit into XL scrub pants( I usually wear a 2x. I did notice my 2x scrubs were getting really baggy but never thought I'd actually fit into XL) ! Never thought this day would come40

Jeans I outgrew over a year ago fit again.25

I mean it's not much, but when cleaning the wardrobe I've found jeans that I had to put aside early this year as they were way too tight giving me a pleasant muffin top :-) Now they fit just right, it has made my day!
Also, I've noticed that since I've started preparing food for lunches I've discovered new variety of taste, especially in vegetable region - like artichokes, or legume.25 -
Was able to wear a bra today that hasn't fit in 2-3 years. And it fits perfectly now. It's technically the same "size" as my old ones but the brand runs small so it never fit right. Not sure why I never threw it out but I'm glad because that saves me some money. I noticed my regular bra getting too lose at the top of the cups so I decided to try this one out and was surprised when I fit. The band is a little tight but not enough to make it uncomfortable.24

I hate buying clothes so I put it off. I bought pants in August that were 6 inches smaller in waist than I bought back in January when I started losing weight. I was getting comments about pants being too big and yes they were too big. I just bought another pair of pants that are 4 inches smaller than the pair i bought in August. I look pretty damned good if I do say so myself...still a ways to go28

I have the same issue. I am rediscovering nylons and A-line skirts and Dresses. I am only 5'2" so pants that can be hemmed are an issue with today's style of wide legs. I guess I will be buying some dress boots.8 -
I don't come to this thread every day but I catch up occasionally by my bookmark and I'm always so thrilled and excited for all these awesome victories. It really makes my heart smile. And I really love that people celebrate with acknowledgements (insightful, inspiring, like, awesome). I noticed on a lot of threads no one really does that and what a shame. It feels like people are just talking to themselves or something.
My own NSV is that my friend, who sees me often, is saying, "Wow, I can really see a big difference!" People who see you frequently don't notice as much as those you don't see much, but the change is big enough that she sees it.36 -
On Sept 24, I completed the Spartan Beast and got my very first trifecta at age 51! So proud that was able to complete all 3 and loved it.

I SO agree. It's refreshing and uplifting to have a thread filled with such positivity, both from posters and readers.

I completed C25K to prepare for a 5K women's run last weekend. I did the run (yay me!!!) but the real nsv is that yesterday morning at 5:30 I got up and went for a run..........just because.42

I was gathering the laundry and grabbed some jeans off the floor and looked at them and thought that one of my friends must have left them when she was over the other night because they looked so small.... but they were mine.34

I food prepped & prelogged two lunches this week. I didn't realize how much easier that would make it to be concious of other food choices during the day to meet macros. It also helped to eliminate decision fatigue.
I also tried quinoa for the first time. Yay for trying new foods that have you go "huh?"27 -
I put a pair of pj's on that I hadn't worn in a while and they bottoms fell straight back down (and no, the elastic hadn't gone)26

As I was out on my bike today, it suddenly hit me that I really, really enjoy exercise.
This, from the girl who at school hated exercise to a point whereby she would do anything, literally anything, to get out of doing sports. If I had an excuse, I used it. My favourite being that I had my period (which, according to me, went on for a couple of weeks - good job the teachers never counted )The only activity I enjoyed at school was swimming, and that was only because I was really good at it, could hide in the water and not have to get changed in front of the other students (I used to make a point of being last out, so by the time I got to the showers they were empty, ditto the changing cubicles).
I also realised that I no longer exercise to get more calories to eat. I exercise to improve my health and fitness and to prove to myself that I can achieve more - go further, faster, over more hilly terrain. And I am doing this! If my old PE teachers from school could see me now, they'd faint with shock. The calories are just an added benefit.
Realising this makes me smile and laugh inside. My only regret is that I left it so long to do this. But I'm doing it now and loving it!30 -

I inadvertently put on an old (bigger) pair of trousers today. I put my socks on, stood up to grab my top and the darn trousers fell down.
I'll be clearing out my wardrobe again tomorrow20 -
I put on a size 8 pair of dress pants this morning, and they fit perfectly.
Eight months ago, I was wearing a size 16.41 -
I had another one today. This morning when I put on my belt that I have not worn in a few weeks, I was able to use the next hole.... I may or may not have made my daughter and boyfriend guess what I was pointing at on my belt. My 13 year old daughter was laughing so hard when she said "You got a new belt hole".... Why yes I did! it was both hilarious and true19

My big reason for beginning this journey after years of denial and so much weight was related to a horrible experience walking while on vacation. My family and I were in a beautiful place walking across these cool tree top hanging bridges and after just two sections (maybe 8 blocks) I seriously thought I was going to die. I was so frustrated and angry at myself that I couldn't enjoy this magical place with my family. And so embarrassed I cried and cried.
Well yesterday I walked 6 miles. I never thought I could do that. Now I'm beginning to wonder if there is anything I can't do including losing the rest of this weight I am lugging around.
Thanks for the inspiration all of you!54 -
Dress pants do go the fastest. I have replaced more dress pants in my wardrobe than anything else.
Okay weird! Yes! What is it with the dang dress pants!!!!!! Love it though. Great boost to one's momentum10 -
I guess I have 2 NSVs this time...
-I have walked over 8 miles so far this week.
-Went to the pantry to grab my chocolate after dinner. Opened the door, decided that my calorie goal was more important, closed the door and walked away. Painful, but worth it. If I had only exercised today, I'd have my chocolate!35
