Thank you all of you for your posts. This sight really does give me hope. I also give a tremendous amount of credit to those who post pictures because I am not there yet and it really does help me.

Anyway, my NSV was I went bathing suit shopping and I didnt walk out completely in tears.

Woot! Good for you! Bathing suit shopping is always a worrisome task! I'm so glad you were able to enjoy shopping!

Great NSV.
I was looking in a local newspaper and they advertised bathing suits for "real women", yet all the pictures were supermodels in tiny suits!!! Geeeeeezzzzzzz! Who makes up these ads?
Congrats on the NSV.

WooHoo!!!! Great NSV. I actually went out on my porch this weekend without a shirt on - something that I have not done in years - and didn't feel like an embarassment when cars and or walkers/runners went by. I was cooling off from a 7.2 mile run which in itself was amazing. Like you I get a lot of motivation from this site and the accomplishments that I read about regularly.

Seriously!!! Like it isnt hard enough going through this without seeing ads like that!

Again, thank you all of you and this sight is amazing. I have been watching what I eat and working out for ahwile and this site even in a few weeks has made a difference.
One thing I learned after joining this site is that I suck at estimating calorie counts and portion control. And I am sure that has made a LOT of difference.
