    Mine was having one of my wife's aunts tell me that I better stop losing weight because I was starting to look sickly. I laughed and told her that I still had 10 pounds to go. Then I realized that she was serious after she started getting upset at me for still wanting to lose more.

    My mom gave me a pair of sleepypants and when I put them on last night I thought they were a little snug and I probably wouldn't wear them all that often. This morning I thought to check the size on them and they're a size 's'. Given that I'm 6'2 and weigh about 200 pounds (as of this morning) I was blown away that I could get them around my thighs much less wear them and have them feel 'a little snug'. A year ago they probably wouldn't have fit over my knees.

    My husband finally using a picture of me as the background on his phone (this probably sounds like a silly NSV, but I generally hate how I look in pictures, so this is huge)! It took 10 years, but I made it! :)

    I gained over 10 lbs in less than 48 hours.

    I did a lot of eating. :smile:

    Mine was a sad NSV: being smaller than my 19yo son :( He has gained all the weight I've lost
    since June 2012.. He doesn't live at home, and when I saw him this christmas my heart broke
    for him. He's a smart kid, but stubborn and in denial.

    A positive NSV: wearing my first REAL pair of jeans (size 16) AND with a belt since I was 20.
    Knowing I wouldn't be ashamed to be in the family photos this year for a change.

    I didn't run from the cameras this year and was told that I was the most photogenic in the family. Also wore a size 10 instead of a 16 or 18!

    I had a couple. Going for 2 decent length runs on Christmas day (doubly so because it's the first time I've run outside as opposed to the treadmill)

    Logging throughout Christmas and not getting too carried away (or caught up in the "I must eat all of the food" mindset.)

    My dad noticed I'd lost weight and looked good. My dad is 66yo, half blind, self obsessed, and never notices anything.

    My flat tummy was noticed, and I was told I look great in my skinny jeans. Woot! :)

    I danced for probably 3 hours straight and was the only one never wanting to quit. Yes we were all alcohol fueled, but I was the one who insisted on dropping to the ground to show everyone all the pushups I could do. Embarrassingly funny, but one of the best nights of my life. So much fun not being someone who sits on the sidelines of life because she is too out of shape (like I have been for the last 15 years...) I was SO SORE the next day! And loved it.

    I got a pair of size 14 jeans and 16 black dress pants for Christmas. When I started my journey in early August I wore a size 20W. I no longer have to go to the plus size store or area of the store. 41 pounds gone since Aug. 8th! I also joined a gym on Nov. 30th. My brother in law said I was looking good! HAHA

    I was hungover the day after.

    No not from alcohol, from SUGAR,

    So my NSV for christmas was the physical proof that my body is 10x better off now that I've given up sugar. 1 plate of dessert and I was physically ill all of the next day. Crazy!!
