    I noticed that my size 18 jeans were barely hanging on to my hips. If I lose another inch or so, they'll fall right down to the ground!

    I was curious and pulled an old pair of size 16 jeans out of my closet and tried them on. THEY FIT! I haven't been able to wear those pants in almost 2 years :D:D:D

    great job!!! love clothing NSV's!

    My proud moment resulted right after a least proud moment. I ate too much at lunch yesterday after church, but I logged it, drank a lot of water, and moved on!!

    On the longest session to date of my half-marathon (one hour of run 2, walk 1) I bumped into my old running group in the local park. I joined them for hill sprints and I was the fastest woman there - I was only overtaken by some teenage Ron Wesley lookalike! The I said my farewells and carried on with the rest of my run. Don't half ache today, though!

    Did a practice 5K before I sign up for one at the end of September and did a time of 27:16 Min to try to improve on. BTW great job on your 5K this past weekend.

    Thanx!! Great time on your practice run, your gonna kill it at the actual race!

    This weekend was bad, in fact it was the worst I have had in the whole six months I have been on MFP.

    BUT today is the start of a new week and I will take all the positives I can

    1) I am very close to my goal weight
    2) I am still a non smoker and have not gained any weight in the 12 weeks since I last smoked
    3) I had a fab weekend, saw some old friends, ate [too much] good food and drank [too much] good wine
    4) I truly feel "ready" to get fully back on plan today after my blow-out weekend! I feel like I'll have a good week :laugh:

    I'm proud of allowing myself a decadent and indulgent weekend with food without freaking out about it. I ate, I enjoyed and now I'm being good again without feeling guilty.

    My accomplishments this weekend:
    1) Logged in everything, good and bad. I usually don't log consistently on the weekends.
    2) Learned how I feel when I've had too much sodium.
    3) Did not binge despite an emotional day and my tendency to do emotional pig outs.

    Love it! Moderation, not Deprevation!

    I took my kids to get ice cream but didn't get any for myself. I wasn't hungry so why eat ice cream just because it's there?

    I totaly agree that there's always more than the number on the scale. Sometimes the NSVs are far sweeter than the weight loss itself. Here were my NSVs this weekend.

    1. I completed C25K Week 5 on Saturday which was the big hump in the program. Going from running at most 8 minutes at a time to running a full 20 minutes. I did it without stopping and when I got home I registered for my very first 5K race.
    2. My bootcamp trainer took my measurements and after 2 months on this journey, I have lost a total of 29.75 inches and 12 lbs. My waist circumference is now in the healthy range and my BMI is out of the obese range.
    3. I tried on a cute dress I bought for an upcoming friend's wedding and my fiance's mouth practically fell on the floor. He thought I looked amazing and told me how proud he was of what I have accomplished and my dedication to getting fit and healthy.
    4. I celebrated my birthday last week and ate a red velvet cheesecake from the cheesecake factory. I still lost 1lb last week. It goes to show that you can have a healthy lifestyle while still having those treats once in a while. :happy:

    I did Zumba 3 days this week, the long one, not the 20 minute one. I rewarded myself by buying new sneakers so now when I do Zumba my feet won't hurt (as much, anyway). And decided that making a really delicious protein shake at the end of a great workout is the best treat! I got a new blender and it works so well I can really make it taste like a milkshake, so yummy! I'm proud of my effort and really feel like it can be continued. I can't go for long goals, I have to make it one week at a time. Works for me. :D
