    This is super silly. Yesterday I got on a real outside bike and rode it for the first time after 19 years of being deathly afraid of trying again. Nineteen years ago I was hit by a truck on a bike and was afraid to ride again. I overcame my fear and did it. This is a huge victory for me.

    ^AMAZING^ and totally inspirational. <3<3<3 So happy for you.

    Already Acheived:

    -Get rid of all my 3XL and Size 40 pants. Now I wear XL shirts and 34" waist pants.
    -When my kids look at old pics of me, they say "That's back when Daddy was Chubby".
    -Got my mom thinking I'm sick because of all the weight I've lost.


    Still on the horizon:

    -Run a 5K in less than 30 minutes.
    -Compete and complete the NY Spartan Race in June.
    -Fit into a 32x32 size pair of jeans.
    -Not gain any weight during the holidays.

    Today I ran for 12 minutes straight without stopping! Silly but great, for me!

    Nice NSV. I wished I could get up to this. I will sooner or later (probably later); but, I get so out of breath whenever I try.

    I bought a skirt that was a bit to tight in Aug bc it was on sale, thinking I would lose weight and be able to wear it. I have done this many times over the past 10 years. Two weeks ago I was able to wear that skirt comfortably!!! I have never actually lost the weight needed to fit into something I bought to small!!! I am so proud of myself.

    Not a NSV but a huge victory for me none the less!!!
    I went to the beach for a week with my family. Typically being around my family means eating unhealthy and over eating and vacation means the same thing! NOT this year. This year I managed to lose 3lbs while on vacation!!!! I stuck to my new lifestyle and ate healthy and exercised every day!!
    I have 2 more I almost forgot about...I was able to wear my knee high boots with that skirt, bc they finally can zip over my calves!! woohoo
    I pulled out my skinny jeans that I havent worn in 2 years to wear with those now zippable boots, and not only did they fit, they were loose!!

    Yesterday was my rest day, I was in a bad mood, and just all around dumpy all day.
    I was dreading today because it was my second day of level 2 on the 30ds, and the first day was no cup of tea. I got my butt out of bed and did my workout, I have only been up and at the day for 3 hours and I am in a GREAT mood it is really astounding how exercise can get you going, who knew all these years of sitting on my fat butt was making it all worse!! This could be a really great day!

    p.s. I am wearing a pair of pants that I really shouldn't have worn 3 months ago and they are so baggy today! It's awesome!

    Went through 3 black skirts in my closet this morning before I found one that would stay up and not look too ridiculous! Going back to older clothes that are one to two sizes smaller and they're loose.

    It was Sunday, after my upper body workout. I went to get into the shower and noticed in the mirror that I finally got some definition in my chest. Just a little thing, but it made me happy and was a little extra encouragement to realize that what I'm doing is working. Slowly, but working.

    Sure, it was primarily due to the pump from the workout, but still - I've never had real definition in my chest. It's mostly gone today, but I have upper body again tomorrow - looking forward to it!

    My winter coat that I have not zipped up the past few years actually zipped around my hips.

    I haven't eaten at mcdonalds, burger king, wendys, etc. for over 2 years now. And the hardest for me is that i havent had arbys since i started MFP. this is a huge accomplishment for me since i was addicted to their roast beef and apple turnovers. i occasionally have subway or a fresh made pretzel sandwich from the pittsburgh pretzel cafe but thats the only fast food i ever eat now.

    I realized this morning that by this time last year, I would've already purchased and consumed at LEAST one bag of Halloween candy (sweets are one of my big weak spots). This year, halfway through the month, I haven't purchased a single one.

    This is so funny because we had our Havest Fest at church this weekend and I won a container of candy corn by having the closest guess as to how many were in there. Candy corn is one of my favorite things! Instead of eating them, I shared with everyone else and told them that by this time last year I would have already eaten 1/2 dozen bags or more!!

    This past weekend I tried on a couple pairs of pants I've been saving for when I lost weight and they were too baggy! Now I can fnally wear a few new blouses that I had deliberately bought in a smaller size a year ago to help encourage me to lose weight.

    You, my mfp encouragers, inspire me daily to lose weight. Thank you for helping me reach this NSV!

    Today I'm comfortably wearing jeans I never thought I'd be able to fit into ever again. :)
