Hi buds! A little late this evening.. sorry :) Share your NSV of the day!!

Mine today was buying a dress for my cousin's wedding- my mom & I were shopping together and she picked out a really super cute pink frilly dress. She handed it to me and it was a size 7. I laughed out loud- although I've been loosing weight, I was trying on size 9-10 dresses. I tried this one on just for the hell of it, and it fit comfortably!! :) Woohoo!

    Fanfreakingtastic! Mine? I got my hair cut last night. Bad idea when your stylist has election day jitters.... MUCH shorter than I expected. Everyone I saw at carpool today told me how thin and fabulous my face looked. Got a few raving reviews on my cheekbones too! Haven't seen those in a really long time! :happy:

    I have had several people at work notice this week that I am losing weight and getting smaller. Kinda scary it took more than 40 pounds for them to notice, but it still makes me feel great!

    I put away a bag of clothes about a year ago that were to tight with the goal that I would one day fit into them again. Today was that day! :)

    Random woman complimented me on my yoga pants because they made my butt/legs look good. She asked what brand/style. Turns out we were wearing the same pants, so she asked me about my workout routine instead! That one felt pretty darn good.

    Late last night after wearing some pants all day I realized that I was wearing size 38's and needed a belt. This is down from the size 42's I was wearing 2 months ago.

    I tucked my shirt in for work today. I never do that because it makes me feel self-conscious about my belly. Today I felt better about it. NSV WOOO!

    Can tell the small signs that I'm losing fat in the smaller places like my face and forearm. I can feel my wrist is smaller too. My jacket from fairweather (where their XL fits like a medium) fits much better from when I got it a couple months ago. I was able to get through most of my bodycombat workout today without taking as many water breaks.

    Great NSV everyone, so inspiring. For me it's a copilation of walking by Star Bucks and not buying an iced mocha latta and I had to adjust my heart rate monitor belt down about an inch. Keep up the good work you guys!

    I passed on the chocolate cheese cake today because I chose not to have it.

    When I started in February, my goal was to lose 84 pounds and fit into size 14 again. Well, so far I've lost 61 pounds and I was able to fit into my 14 "goal" pants a few weeks a go. Now those pants are getting to be too loose! I thought 12 was an unattainable goal. Apparently not!!

    raised most of my weights by 5-10 pounds and walked up 70 flights of stairs instead of my usual 60. :D

    My size 12/13 shorts that were tight a couple of months ago very nearly fell off when I put my cell phone in my pocket. The smallest size 10/11 jeans that I bought for my trip now fit comfortably and some of my other 11s are getting loose.

    Not really an NSV, but I did some heavy lifting yesterday and I am deliciously sore today. Always makes me feel sexy.

    RX'd my CrossFit Workout: Handstand walks/shoulder touches

    WOD- 3x4min AMRAP's

    20 alternating kb swings -35lbs / 15 box jumps (20") - 2 Full Rounds & 5 KB Swings
    1 rope climb / 20 lunges - 3 Full rounds & 1 Rope Climb
    10 bench press -75lbs / 20 slam balls - 2 Full rounds, 5 BP

    Also motivated 2 people to try rope climbs for the 1st time. BOTH were able to complete at least 1!
    Also very happy with my progress on handstand walks.

    AND... the instructor @ Glutes & Abs (who does nothing but fitness) complimented me and said I was somewhat intimidating!

    I bought a size medium shirt today. I don't remember the last time I wore a medium. When my wife bought me a 2XL that was one of the things that motivated my lifestyle change.

    Tried 30 Day Shred and didn't collapse or die in the first 10 minutes. The old me would have never even looked at the video much less try it.

    My daughter looked at me when I walked into the room. She had a kind of surprised look on her face. I thought I was growing another head or something. She finally said, "You're getting smaller."

    Oh. Ok. Cool. :bigsmile:

    For the first time in 20 years I've started wearing my shirt tails tucked in. I can't believe how it looks!
