    This morning, I was able to wear a pair of work pants that I haven't been able to in a few months.
    I can get back into the dresses I was in last fall.
    I'm working with 20lbs weights at the gym

    I do seriously think that my scale is a little crazy - it'll randomly spike up 5 lbs for no reason, so I'm rejoicing in the little things! :laugh:

    It's been a long journey for me, so there have been plenty, but my top 3 so far:

    1) Fitting into a booth comfortably for the first time.
    2) Being able to cross my legs
    3) Having someone not recognize me, then start crying when she figured out who I was. ;)

    Down 50 lbs (though it's taken 2 years) with 70 more to go, I'm:

    1) Off lasix for a slow heart - thank you regular vigorous exercise and nutritious eating.
    2) I buy 'hot' street shoes now that are fun and funky.
    3) This weekend I felt secure enough in my loss to remove and donate all size 20 and above clothing hanging about in my closet and drawers. Can't wait to get rid of the XL's I'm wearing now!

    The look on my sister-in-law's face when she hadn't seen me in a year and a half over which I lost a good hundred pounds. She tells me I'm her inspiration to take better care of herself now. :blushing:

    My most recent NSV's

    1. Yesterday the manager at my gym asked to take another computer picture of me because I lost so much weight I dont look the same as when I first started. She showed me the before and after...holy moly I used to have a super double chin! haha

    2. I was wearing my size 14 jeans and my husband told me that they are sagging in the butt and I need to go another size down.

    3. I am squatting 130-140lbs and doing 90lb lunges

    sorry to edit
