Double NSV

I've known that I was losing kilos over the last few months, but don't really seem to have had any obvious results to show for the movement on the scale. But I've realised that in the last week I have actually had some real NSVs, so decided to put them out there.

Yesterday I had my blood pressure taken (for what seems like the umpteenth time in the last few weeks). The really good news with that was that even in the 10 days since it was last taken, my blood pressure has dropped from 150/90 to 130/85!! So the weight loss is really working - Woohoo!!

And the other good news is that I'm beginning to see the difference in my clothes. Last week I wore to work a pair of trousers that were too tight for me to wear last year - and when I got home I had to wash them and put them in the 'give-away' pile, because they spent the day slipping dangerously off my hips! Plus, today I'm wearing a top that I bought at the beginning of summer but could never wear because it clung to all my lumps - and it's loose on me!!

So a couple of great NSVs there to keep me motivated - thanks MFP!

    Well done! Before you know it, there will be a NSV at every turn. It sounds like you're starting to trip over them along with your loose pants these days. ;)
