NSV! Let's Hear Yours!

Most noticeable thing so far: disappearing visible panty lines. I don't know if I'm actually shrinking yet, but they aren't showing through my yoga pants anymore. Nice for everyone who has to stand behind me!

I'd never heard of NSVs until I got here, but I think they're brilliant - the positive antidote to those uncomfortable or embarassing 'fat moments' that come back to haunt us occasionally, in spite of our best intentions. I'm writing my NSVs down so that I can look at them whenever I need encouragement. Human nature being what it is, I've a feeling that NSVs aren't nearly as readily called to mind as 'fat moments' are

I've not been at this for long, but I've already had two NSVs since last weigh-in. I was sitting at my desk working the other day when I went to rest the chubby bit of my chin on my thumb while I pondered some problem or other. I didn't realise what a habit this had become until I discovered the chubby bit wasn't there anymore Better yet, the next day I realised that the keyboard tray doesn't poke me in the belly now. The scales might not be showing much yet, but I'm definitely losing bits of me already that I don't want back again

I have not binged at all this week, and tomorrow is my weigh in! And I've increased my water intake.

My work shirt feels so much better! Also, all of my jeans are falling off my hips and look terrible :laugh:

NSV is Non Scale Victory

My favorite NSV- I now weigh less than what my drivers license says! And, of course, I always put my weight as 25 pounds less than what I actually weighed.

I ordered Insanity.
NSV #1 I opened the box
NSV #2 I did the fit test.

It kicked my booty but I was sooooo apprehensive!!!

I need to buy a new belt! Mine is too big! Either I get a new one or I'll be punching a new hole in my old one! That is my NSV!

my wii fit not longer calls me obese.
I went from size 16/18 to 12. Unfortunately now that I need new cloths I have nothing in the budget for it. I have been moving buttons and sewing new darts in my skirs.
The down side, I am colder and it hurts to sit on hard chairs, but I am overjoyed.
I can run faster, hike farther and have much more energy.

wow everyone has had some great nsv!
Mine is

1. Tried on size 10 jeans and they were mildly loose!- Coming from a size 18 pants
2. Tried on size 7/8 jeans and they fit up more than half way of my bottom! Maybe 5 inches from where I wear my jeans.
3. Before i could barely complete 1 'man' push up(9 weeks ago), I can now complete 11 push ups as of today

Love reading these.

Took my daughter with me for a swim. I always get to the pool before my daughter.
This time when she got to the pool she told me she didn't see me at first because she had gotten used to looking for my belly. But she didn't see a belly anymore. :bigsmile:

Way to go everyone! Congrats! All great NSV's.

Mine is that my husband and I were at the home improvement store walking in from the parking lot to the store. He looked over at me and said, " Look at you keeping up with me". My exercising is paying off.

I looked at my reflection after getting a haircut and I liked what I saw! Was i

I was going to say - was it self confidence or a good haircut or a little of both?
Also I can feel the muscles in my arms getting stronger and my legs look cut!

I had a pretty good one yesterday which I desperately needed because the scale hasn't moved in 2 weeks. So I was talking with a friend at work who I hadn't seen in a few weeks and right in the middle of a sentance she stops and says "Gah! Look how TINY you are!!!" MADE-MY-DAY!

Almost had a wardrobe malfunction in the pool today because my swim suit top is too baggy - floated right up!! LOL

Three NSV this week,

1. I went to Old Navy and fit into a size 12, but can see that in a month I will be in a 10. Crazy!

2. I burned 450 calories on the treadmill in 50 minutes! I remember the days when I would burn 100 calories in 18 or 19 minutes.

3. Being told by several people that I am getting skinny! JACKPOT!!

This has more to do with recovering from a health issue than weight loss, but 2 months ago I couldn't get out of bed without assistance...today I can walk 20+mins (albiet with a cane) with just a little soreness.

I managed to drink like 10-12pints of cider Friday and still lose weight, I guess my 9am run the next morning helped. On a serious note though I wore a 14neck shirt the other day, yes a 14 that's like what teenagers wear and it was baggy. Result !!!

Love the honesty of kids - they're not shy about saying these things!

My NSV is my friend said I was looking very trim!
