What's Your Most Recent NSV

Today I went on the longest walk I've gone on since my surgery nearly 2 months ago.

And those uphills always look so gentle when you're looking at the map, or down from the highest point of your route. And then you actually get to them, and start questioning your life choices

Amen, ceiswyn!

Today I got back into wheel pose in yoga. I recently reestablished my yoga practice and it’s been a struggle, not least because I’m still 20kg heavier than when I left my practice a couple of years ago. I stared back in late February and this week is the first time I’ve gotten all the way up for 5 breaths, 2 Days in a row too!!

I'm on my last belt hole! Time to buy a smaller belt!

Bought a pair of size 10 shorts yesterday. Hoping to be in an 8 by fall. Maybe a size 6 when I am finished losing and start maintaining.

Woke up at 5:40 for the third day in a row to run. Run cut short thanks to getting bitten by a dog (again! I got bitten last June on a morning run, though in a different state). Police report and waiting forever to see dr to get abx shot my morning. Waiting 2 HRs at the dr with 4 kids under 8 was worse than the bite, I think.

Nsv is that I have my alarm set for tomorrow and I just finished lifting. Take that, stupid poodle! You’re quarantined for 10 days and the road is mine!

(Seriously, a poodle?!? I mean, when I got chased and bitten by a pit bull and a Rottweiler, that was terrifying but at least made a good survival story. Not so much a little white poodle being walked by a little old lady )

I got bitten in the upper arm by a doberman puppy. Thank God she was a puppy because she was going for my neck but wasn't tall enough to reach it when she reared up on her hind legs to bite me. Oblivious owner talking on her phone, wasn't even aware I was on the path until her stupid dog bit me, and I made a point to give them a wide berth since you can't trust a dog you don't know. The dog was leashed but that does no good unless you use it to control the dog. If I can hold back my Huskies who pull like the sled dogs they are and just want to lick you to death, then that fool should've been able to control a Dobie puppy. Glad you're okay.

My NSV today is that I have been sitting all day next to a box from Dunkin Donuts that someone brought in for Nurses' Week and haven't touched them.

Yesterday I had the day off (yay, government job on Primary Election Day!) and I decided to clean out my dresser drawers and closet. I tried on all of my jeans, my shorts, and some shirts. Put 10 pairs of jeans and all but three pairs of shorts, as well as 5 or 6 shirts, in a goodwill donation bag. Some of the jeans, which were tight at the beginning of this year, were hilariously too big (I was a human Subway commercial, basically). It felt so good to get rid of things that I can’t wear anymore, and my dresser is closing much better now! I just wish I hadn’t spent over $100 on a suit when I only wore it twice...

I have a couple today. First went out with a friend for lunch. I wasn't super hungry, but I tend to overorder. Got a hot dog and a half order of French toast. Well I didn't even like the toast that much. So I didn't finish it. Would have on another day just because it was there.

Second I had some calories left for ice cream tonight (probably thanks to not eating the toast!). Wanted more after I finished my serving...but I didn't eat more.

Officially being under 200

Took the kids to a newly opened cafe/bar area and watched them eat chocolate cake!

My weight loss and healthy habits has inspired my husband to start losing weight!

After a 10 month cycle of depression and a 30 lb weight gain, I've been back in the fitness saddle for a week and I am feeling better. I am resisting the urge to kick myself for the bad choices of the past year and I am just moving on. Seriously, I can't believe how good it feels to be in control again.

Job hunted since forever, got three interviews the last three days and got hired today.

I brought the kids to Dairy Queen and didn’t order for myself and wasn’t disappointed about it!

My husband picked me up and told me I was light... ( this has made me rediculously happy)

I look forward to my walks now when before I dreaded them.

For the first time in a long time, I was able to pick out a dress for a cocktail party tonight and not have to worry about whether it will fit!

The slacks I JUST bought are already almost too loose.

Eating more fiber and not spending 30 min on the bowl

Being pleasantly surprised seeing my muscles when exercising or just in general - I forget they're visible now!

I went to Target for some summer tank tops and went into the dressing room with 24 items, mostly mediums. Only 3 of them fit because apparently I'm a size small now haha. Also, I got a pair of jeans in size 2 (instead of 6 or 8 that I usually am in that brand)- I am very aware that it's partly vanity sizing but it's still nice since I've been lifting for a month and no weight loss but I can feel my body changing/clothes getting bigger.

brookielaw

I've got a few. Today my surgeon cleared me to lift again. I'll be swimming in no time. Best of all he cleared me to start radiation in the next 4-6 weeks which is 3-4 months before originally anticipated because I healed so well. I do love beating the odds.

Fitting into my uniform again after two years !!

I hiked 34 miles while on vacation and saw so many beautiful areas that I never would have seen, if I hadn't changed my eating habits.

I focus on the pants because they are big indicators of weight loss. To me, they are the dragons I need to slay, the battles that need to be won to wear them again. However, every once in a while, I'll lay claim to a small victory. A baby dragon, perchance. Or maybe it is merely one of the "dragonpants'" minions.

Today is one of those days. Not only did I wake up with an almost 1kg loss, but I grabbed my summer jacket (I'm always cold; my work likes to blast the frigid air) without thinking and put it on. It was only after I got to work that I realized.

I must have conquered enough ground to force the dragonpants to spew treasures out of my closet.

I am able to once again wear my summer jacket and it's not tight like a sausage skin trying to squeeze me into a shape I'm not. It merely fits, which is the best feeling.

Yippee!! Next level of my epic closet (dungeon) crawl achieved!

Next up? Freeing the red leather jacket from the clutches of the dragonpants.

I wear a short sleeved sweater like thing at work and when I was heavier, the sleeves wouldn't come down to cover my arms. I remember pulling them down all the time and feeling frustrated. Now they easily fall near my elbows. Also had a bunch of work out pants that I bought last year that were just too tight but I tried them on today and they fit fine. Yay! Now I have new work out pants to wear and I can get rid of the old unflattering ones. This is a great thread. It helps to remind me of my progress. Why should I give up now?

AwesomeSquirrel

Another colleague (actually my boss) said the other day that I looked like I lost weight. Although I felt a little awkward, I was able to use it to motivate myself a few times this week to stick to my plan.

It’s finally warm where I live (20+ C) and I’ve been wearing a pair of breezy trousers (that I didn’t dare to try to wear last year since even bending my knees slightly would have caused my bottom to rip through) and light blouses which are no longer trying to bust open at my chest.

I have just moved house , so needed to change the address on my driving licence,but figured i better change the photo too... eight yrs apart (and yes i've gone pretty grey) but the 190lbs weight loss has been the last 27months.

Ainadan

Fell off the wagon and gained like 6 or 8 lbs. But I didn't fall off the exercise wagon and I've been working out more consistently than I ever have before, which is a NSV. Back to counting my calories. Day 2 complete.
