    I'm wearing skinny jeans at work for the first time ever, and I'm wearing them with confidence!

    Two yesterday:

    1. Wore a pair of size 12 slacks to work for the first time in almost 2 years.

    2. Was approached by TWO guys I work with yesterday because they wanted to know WHAT i have been doing to drop the weight. Then said, "I hope you don't take offense, but you have lost a LOT of weight!" *snicker* So I sent them both the link to MFP, and the link to Scooby's TDEE calculator. :bigsmile:

    As the father of a Brownie and a Daisy, the Girl Scout cookies this year were everywhere — in the kitchen, garage; I even lugged them to my office to sell to co-workers. And through all of it, I ate only 1 cookie (a Lemonade) and didn't have any cravings!

    I had them everywhere too, lugged them all over town and into the office to sell. I only ate two cookies - also lemonades! I was so proud of myself!

    1. Put my jeans on straight out of the dryer and they are very loose!

    2. Noticed my muffin top is disappearing.

    There are iced cupcakes EVERYWHERE at work today for Comic Relief and I brought 4, put them in my lunchbox and gave them to my Dad. I would've eaten at least 8 myself a few weeks ago

    A co-worker complimented me this morning saying that he can see a change in me since starting my new lifestyle 4 weeks ago!
    It is really nice when others notice the results of all your efforts even when you don't "see" them yet!

    This sight is very encouraging. I need to measure myself so I'm not just looking at weight loss!!! This is my 3rd day here...

    I love reading these! You are all doing amazingly! :)

    Mine today was I put on a blouse that zips up the side. When I got it, it was a bit difficult to zip it up all the way. I put it on for the first time in about a month expecting the same zipper difficulty. Nope! It zipped up, no problem! I guess I lost weight from my... ribs? Yay!

    My "skinny" jeans are loose!!

    I'm a mere 10 lbs away from the skinniest I've been in my adult life.

    WINNING!

    I've been back on here almost 4 weeks and I haven't weighed myself once! I tend to get scale obsesive, or discourged, so I am avoiding it! Taking my new measurements today

    I got 15reps for most of my lifts today without feeling like limbs would drop off :-)

    Since 7/26/11 I've been working on doing a push-up. A REAL one, nose to the mat, no break in form, no rear end in the air, full fledge push-up!
    I had a double mastectomy and my chest muscles just wouldn't ever allow me to do a push-up. Well I've been working hard to develope my shoulders, back, chest and arms and last night at the gym I did a REAL ONE!!!!! YAY FOR ME! Now I'd like to do 5 real ones in a row and I'm going to work on a pull up/chin up :)

    I loaded and unloaded the 15kg (33lb) plates onto the Olympic bar today. Up until now I've been too weak to manhandle them even though I could do the lifts with them on and have had to use 10kg + 5kg. It wasn't pretty, but I did it!

    Non-scale victory.

    I'm new too and I thought it was "New Small Victory". :) I guess it could be that too!

    Scale hasn't moved in a month, but I'm down a pants size! Huzzah!!! Busting out of a size 28 a year and a half ago. Just bought (and fit into!) size 6 jeans last night!

    This is really encouraging, as I've felt lately the scales won't budge; yet weirdly I woke up this morning and felt smaller! I'm just going to keep going and nevermind the temperamental scale. Well done you've lost heaps!! :tongue:

    My NSV for today was going into a shop I buy clothes at regularly, and I'm usually a large; when I was bigger even large was often too tight for me. Today, I was happily surprised to fit comfortably into a medium! And out of curiosity I tried a small and even an XS. They both fit, just snug in the arms (and the XS showed a bit more belly-roll than I'd like lol.)
    But the fact I could get them on at all was cool. Usually I wouldn't have a chance at getting them over my shoulders. :)

    Can't wait til I can wear a small with confidence!

    I'm dating a super hot puerto rican soldier at my work. Never would've gotten him with my old school "fat girl" status, lol.

    64 push-ups in one set - new best (as an old bloke, not PB).
    Incredible increase of 1 over previous best two weeks ago! :angry:

    Should hit 100 by Christmas at this rate of progression.
