I've been reading all these NSVs for a few months now and while I'm genuinely excited for those that have experienced them, I couldn't help but wonder when it was going to happen for me. I was growing quite impatient!

Well halle-freakin-luja it happened today!!! I got in my closet to pull out some dress pants for work and thought I had grabbed a certain go-to pair of black slacks that are the largest pair of pants I own. I wear them constantly because I refused to buy larger clothing....and to be completely honest, even they are a little tight :frown: Anywho...I slipped them on and somthing felt different, and once I went to button them I realized these were not the pants I thought they were. These weren't my "fat" black pants....these were the black pants I've been trying to squeeze into for over a year!!!! AND...they fit!!! :happy: My thighs aren't suffocating and there is no muffin-top to be found....these pants fit! They button and everything...with absolutely NO effort!

I look in the mirror every single day trying to find something about my body that has changed....and most of the time I just don't see anything different, but this is proof that I am changing and all this hard work I am putting in IS making a difference! thank GOD! :glasses:

    YAY!!!

    NOW, start taking pictures! Take front, side and back pics of you in your bra. sounds hideous and I wanted to cry the frist time I saw mine but the pictures don't lie!!

    Take measurements too!

    We can't see day-to-day differences so being able to look back at what we once were is amazing!

    Thats awesome!! Keep going! I know how good it feels to get into pants you haven't fit in a while. Just wait until you have to buy new clothes because these ones are too big

    That is so wonderful. I am finding that I have at least one NSV every couple of weeks. It is a nice feeling isn't it?

    well done - it must the day for NSV of the trousers! I too did the same thing today - managed to fit into a pair of trousers that I haven't managed to do up for as long as I can remember! Congrats! I have been walking with more of a spring in my step today so you must have been too!
