    "Very pert" is even better than "firm" well done, good job!!!

    My BMI is below 50 today, which means I'm now morbidly obese rather than super obese!

    AND my weight starts with a 2 today! Goodbye 300+!

    Yay for firm bums! My NSV was I fitted into my UK size 10 jeans at the weekend for the first time on too long with no muffin top - major NSV for me, down 2 dress sizes since Jan 2011.

    "SV" - I just measured my arms (upper/bicep) and I've lost an inch there. :-) (I'm relying on the tape measure much more heavily than the scale these days)

    NSV - was taking the initial test for the 200 sit up challenge and managed to do 105 sit ups!!! :-D http://www.twohundredsitups.com/

    I went to a running shop today and they took me seriously.

    I saw a school friend that I haven't seen in 10 years and he just went "WOAH!!"

    Great job, everyone. These are just the inspiring little tid bits I need to keep me going today!

    I made it through the holiday weekend without eating desserts at all of the parties and cook outs we attended.

    I fit into some trousers my Mum bought me - about 6 weeks ago I couldn't do the zip up and I nearly asked her to take them back, glad I kept them now!

    Last year I bought a fairly expensive sports bra at a running exhibition- the assistant measured my rib cage and was adamant that I bought a bra in a back size two sizes smaller than I actually was. Anyway God knows why- maybe I was feeling the pressure and bought it anyway but I got it home and it was clearly too tight to wear. I dug it out last night and wore it running in the gym and it felt great, no longer too tight at all!

    Hello You!

    Great NSV. Well done. I posted about mine the other day. I can fit more easily into some clothes that had been too tight. This makes me happy.

    Whilst this being sensible is good for my health, my real motivation is to get back into my clothes and enjoy wearing things again. I realise this is a little shallow but...in my defence...I don't want to be model thin (it won't happen. I am an hourglass), I do like to look nice and well proportioned.

    I think MFP is great and very sensible. I really like MFP members attitudes to weight loss. They are sensible and supportive.

    Keep up the good work everyone. xx

    My fingers are slimmer (yes really) and the girls fit a bit better in their bra, no double boob syndrome any more.

    Well done everyone:) I don't usually post NSVs but since you asked...

    I am wearing a fitted shirt today that I haven't worn for about 5 years as I had too many spare tyres even when standing up:smile:

    I can now run for two whole minutes on C25K:laugh:

    OH keeps saying how noticeable the weight loss is. I've lost this much before but not with exercise as well - makes such a difference to body tone/ size even with a relatively small weight loss!

    My jeans are hanging off my butt and I've to change to a different belt as there were no holes left on the last one!

    I have LOADS of energy.

    I really don't stress about food. No guilt and no deprivation.

    Even my whippet has got to a proper whippet size as he has been running with me:happy:

    At the weekend I fit size 14jeans a size I have never owned in my life.
  • NSV- Feeling so athletic that I rarely have negative thoughts about my body. It's not ideal yet, but I'm always checking myself out and looking at my new muscles. I'm also running all the time now, and so confident. After each run, I can feel my obliques working, so I know my body is changing even if the scale isn't. I'm like Scarlet O'Hara which the way I'm measuring my waist so often (weekly) because I know big change is coming!
