    I bought a suit year ago, i put it on yesterday and I was swimming in it. Kinda sad because its a great suit and was kinda expensive but I'm thinking about having it taken in. Once you do that theres no going back.

    I'd say a 500# dead lift is pretty respectable

    x2 30second planks with 40kg weight on my back.
    My UK size 10 jeans fitting me :noway:
    My biggest one is not eating any Chocolate/cake/sweets/biscuits/cookies for the last 2 months! :drinker:

    I bought a pair of pants in May when I first started my job and they got to small so I had to buy a bigger pair. Well now the new pair I bought two months ago fall off and the old pair fits perfectly now.
  • Last week I've introduced a new alcohol regime - only one night a week, two glasses of wine max.
    I've been out to dinner twice last week (stayed within calorie plan) AND to a bar twice with my drinking buddies and have stuck to my plan.

    Going out for drinks again tonight. We've agreed on tea for me, cocktail for my friend. :)

    Apparently peer pressure CAN be overcome.

    I gave up soda, and it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. I used to have AT LEAST 2 cans a day. Sometimes 3. Yikes. It's been about a month and a half now, and don't even miss it. Feels great. :-)

    - New jeans in a size smaller than I've been in at least four years.
    - Ran my standard 2.5 mile run...then decided to run it again! Easiest 5 miles I've ever run.
    - Changed up my makeup a little, makes me feel like I've got massive eyes. Just taking the time to do my makeup is a change in a good direction!

    No longer worry about my tshirts shrinking by putting them in the dryer. I use to hang dry every shirt I wore.

    Next NSV is wearing my college class ring. It goes on now, but still a little too tight.
  • seeing muscle tone, and running for 45 minutes this morning and not thinking anything of it. :) Back in March I could barely run for 90 seconds.

    awesome NSV's people! Reading through all of these NSV's, I can't wait until I get to experience some of them!

    My NSV is small, but I'm still really excited about it :smile:

    I graded in my Martial Arts Class last week, and just got the results: I PASSED! And I passed WELL! For a girl who couldn't run 2 minutes without having fainting spells and could do 10 leg raises, it was great validation!

    Also, I had a work function happening on a Friday and hadn't had a chance to get nice jeans (only had one pair at this point, faded black skinny jeans that were no longer flattering :grumble: ) so went on the Thursday night and bought two pairs, one a size 16 (tall, which i would need to roll up and have shortened later) and one size 14 (which was the petite length but a size I've not fit into for the last 2 years) for the comparison test with family. Surprise surprise, the size 14 fit well and actually looked good!

    Now, for my next NSV!

    Goal: size 12 Skinny jeans (without the dreaded muffin top)
    Target date: End of Year
    Reward: Seeing my sister's face getting off the airoplane when she sees me as a size 12 for the first time ever! :noway: :happy:

    I lost 31 lbs without a change in pants size. I added strength training and gained 2 lbs but went from size 18 pants to size 16!

    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!!

    The most recent one I have occured just last night. I have one of those families who likes to compare body size when we all get together. I (unfortunately) inherited a big butt from both sides of my family. Anyway, I hadn't seen my aunt in about a month and she says to me when I stand up "Sheila, what happened to your butt" I thought maybe I had something on my pants...NO! she says "it's smaller" Yeah, that felt pretty good!!

    Another inch off my waist today!!!!
  • 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.

    -Get rid of all my 3XL and Size 40 pants. Now I wear XL shirts and 34" waist pants.

    -Compete and complete the NY Spartan Race in June.

    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 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!
