Is this even an NSV?

I have lost about 7 kilos now...3 after joining MFP. Went from 104 to 97. And my ultimate goal is 70 kilos. Sigh seems so far away.

Anyway, the other day I was trying to put on my shoes while standing. And I realized...I didn't fall over. Neither did I need to hold the wall to support myself. I just put them on and then I thought "Is gaining balance an NSV?". What do you guys think?

    Non Scale Victory - an achievement that you notice, but not in the figures on the scale.

    Absolutely! Ironically, that is one of the first things I noticed as well. My balance improved dramatically...

    Definitely!! Celebrate it! As your 'core' gets stronger, your balance will improve, making your workouts more effective, as well as making every day life just plain EASIER!

    You've made a great start, and already you are reaping the benefits! Maybe if you set interim goals (scale and non-scale) for yourself, it won't seem so overwhelming. Keep up the good work! :smile:
