Share your recent NSV's. They are just as exciting as seeing the number on the scale drop!

Mine for today is I managed to stay on the StairMaster for 20 minutes this morning, breaking my record of 15 minutes.

What's yours?

    I was able to keep up with the "elite" walkers today during our daily walk. Normally I am huffing and puffing up those hills.

    At a water park: walked up a 3 story climb to get to a water slide. At the top, I was not winded. Then, the glorious descent down the water slide at break-neck speed! Something I haven't done in nearly a decade. Huge NSV for me!!!!!

    that sounds so fun!! I haven't been to a water park in about 13 years, back when i was 100 lbs soaking wet.. sigh, I miss that lol. I will again, and take my girls and it'll be better than before =D

    My friend invited me out, though it was really late and I was thinking just to sit home, but I remembered that I haven't been for any exercise today, so I went out and walked with her for two whole hours through hills and city streets! Yes, sure, it isn't much but helps for my confidence a lot!

    A huge victory for me was to join this site and finally decide to commit to weight-loss no matter how hard it is, which I know it will be for me.

    Wednesday I got on the treadmill for the first time in a while.
    I did a minute warm up walk then I ran at 6 to 7 for 15 minutes straight!
    I didnt know I could do that and it felt great!

    2 months ago, I hated washing my jeans because it took me two days to get them stretched out enough to be comfortable. Now, I have to wash them almost every time I wear them so that they fit properly.

    Oh, and a cougar pinched my butt on the 4th.

    Leaving the house in a racer back tank top and a pair of shorts that did not go halfway down my thighs and not worry that I was a total embarrassment and everyone around me was not thinking, what WAS she thinking going to go out in public dressed like that.

    I carried both a watermelon and a gallon of milk into the house when I got back from shopping! At the same time, and my wrists didn't hurt! It took (very light) weight lifting on the machines at the school gym to get me there, I have these tiny 5.7 inch wrists and no arm muscles...until now! Do not laugh.

    Hopefully my boyfriend can fix that for me when he gets home from work!

    Finally feeling confident enough to wear a top that I've owned for about 5 years and only worn maybe once (can't quite remember). The fact that I have changed my mind on the entire outfit doesn't change the NSV any, though :wink:

    i had to sew my heart rate monitor to be a smaller size since it was already on the smallest size and it wasn't picking up my heart rate!

    The other day I grabbed a pair of denim shorts that haven't fit me for at least 3 years. Not only did they fit, they were a bit roomy! I felt awesome that day. :happy:

    I'm able to do push ups! I've never been able to do even one in my life, and mid-workout during the 30DS I mindlessly did a few while following along and felt totally shocked that I actually just did that afterwards!

    Today I was eating my dinner and I realised before I finished the plate that I was full so just stopped eating - I just felt I had reached my calories. - I know weird NSV but a big deal for me.

    Plus I am actually excited about my gym session tomorrow - I mean I have it planned in my head to do my c25k and can't wait to do my weights and just really looking forward to it - I just love that it's all coming together :)
