NSV PLUS Scale movement!!!

Hi all,
Finally had a moment I have to share!
Context: My stomach, butt, hips, and thighs are my biggest problem areas. I lost focus in April during school holidays and then got back on the wagon late-April but saw no major change, only about 0.2kg loss (0.09 lb!). I've kept plodding along anyway, some days better than others.
Today, I tried on a new outfit I'd bought for an evening with my boyfriend in a few days from now. Let me put this carefully - it's more of an outfit you wear in private, rather than out for dinner. lol If you see what I mean.
Anyway, I looked, and thought "What?? where's my stomach?" It looked almost flat!! My butt looked ... different. Higher? I then put on the shoes. Looked. Turned my back to the mirror and looked over my shoulder and said "D*MN!!!"
For the first time in my life, I saw a backside that I was proud of! (Btw ladies, seriously, 6 inch heels may be terrible for your feet, but oh my lord do they make your thighs and bottom look amazing! Worth about 1lb loss in themselves!!)
Anyway, I'm looking at the front... no stomach to speak of. Sure there's a bit left, but in clothes it disappears altogether. Look at the back. Good lord, is that me? And then I cried a little bit.
Then I jumped on the scales (quick, while my water content is down from crying hahahaha) and since two days ago, I've just dropped 0.6kg which is 0.27lb. No it's not a big loss, at all, but it's the biggest loss I've seen in weeks, AND, never mind what the scales say, what I'm looking at is a major reshaping.
My thighs actually have muscle showing through, my bottom has lifted by a few inches, my stomach has flattened out, and even my hold-onto-every-calorie-in-case-of-nuclear-disaster hips are visibly smaller.
No I'm not done yet, far from it, but for the first time I saw a me that is far closer to my goal than to the old me.
I'm still in shock as I write this. It works. It WORKS!!!!

Little update on this. I have a pair of pants that I could just barely squish into, but that would cut into my stomach while I wore them.
Yesterday I tried them on, and they did up easily with no strain or squishing. I was so happy.
Then I had a night out last night and ate the wrong sort of food but tried hard to keep a lid on the amount, and to avoid all the "extras".
This morning instead of being bulging again, I'm down another 0.5kg (0.23 lb) and I threw on the same pants to check if they fit. My daughter came in and said "wow, those pants are getting loose on you".
It's working Even when I don't get it completely right, it's still working overall0
