Best kind of NSV

shinisize

This morning I had two NSVs. First, in a panic because I realized all my jeans I thought fit were dirty, I tried on a pair that normally only fits when I'm a happily trim me (I'm just shy of 10 lbs from my goal, so 5 lbs from where I thought those pants would fit). They fit. No squeezing or anything. I was in a bit of a rush so I didn't take time to check myself out in the mirror before calling it good enough and running downstairs. About two minutes later I was standing at the counter making coffee and my boyfriend walked behind me, stopped dead in his tracks, and said possibly the sweetest thing ever:

"Wow, those pants make your *kitten* look really good."

He went on to tell me that he had been wrong, working out was making me look better, and he could tell now that I wasn't wearing pants that were slightly baggy in the back that I had been losing weight in a very good way. (He knew me at my goal weight, didn't feel that I looked any different heavier, and thought that this whole losing weight thing was a girly vanity thing before this morning.) It was totally more rewarding to have someone who looks at my butt every single day say that I was looking noticeably thinner in a great way than it was to fit into skinnier jeans! That's the world of difference between you noticing you've lost weight and other people noticing!

Way to go girl! It's the best when you're boyfriend/significant other looks at you and says "Damn, you look good", and they're not just saying that because you're hormonal or need a self esteem boost. :P
