    Congrats on everyone's accomplishments so far! My daily NSV was doing 45 minutes off the seat in spin class!

    To all of you whose NSVs include exercise or healthy eating, I'm impressed. You are an inspiration to me.

    My NSV for today is that I caught my reflection in a glass movie poster case at the theater - and I did a double-take because I saw a slim, fit woman in skinny jeans looking back at me. To make sure I have more NSVs like this one I guess I'd better get on the stationary bike instead of finishing off the Christmas Toblerone.

    In gym class today my teacher was impressed on how my heart rate stays low even though I bike faster that some of the other students. xD
    It feels good to be sort of conditioned to cardio work-outs again.

    Well, this was yesterday not today but it still makes me smile. I realized back in May that the only road forward through my knee issues was going to involve weight loss to prove my doctor wrong about that being the sum total of the problem. So I vowed not to go back until I was lighter than when I first met him 15 years ago, when I discovered I was pregnant with my first born, and could make an impression. According to my scale, I am about 78 lbs down, somewhere between 10-13 pounds lighter than back then right now. He did beautifully!! Nurse was weighing and measuring me when he came out of another examining room, and glanced at us, said hi and started to go the other way, then suddenly stopped and whipped around doubling back exclaiming, "Who's THAT thin lady??!!" So mission accomplished in that regard -- he was suitably impressed so I can safely say I made the impression I was going for and got his attention focused on something other than my weight so now we can move forward -- even though I've got 40ish pounds to go to final goal where I will be satisfied. It's the thrill of vindication....I was right like I always knew I was but now he knows it too. :o) Not to gloat too much .... cause I really do like my doc, that's why I've stayed with him all this time, even though we now live 40 minutes from his office instead of 10. But when you're right, you're right and it's nice to be able to prove it and have it acknowledged!

    I put on an old t-shirt and it was too small in the upper torso area. Male NSV's are sometimes the opposite of female NSV's :wink:

    Started back at the gym this evening by attending a zumba class. I haven't been exercising lately due to first being sick, then having family stuff get in the way, and then having friends from out of state drop in last week very last minute, so I hadn't exercised in what feels like ages. Phew, what a workout--I am exhausted right down to my bones.

    I fit into a size medium bandage skirt that I've never fit comfortably in!

    Congratulations everyone!

    My NSV was doing lunges! I hate them so much and only do them when my trainer forces me. I always skip them when I work out alone, but today I did 50! That might not sound like a lot to some of you, but it's a pretty big deal to me. I wanted to stop after 15!

    I swam my usually 40 laps in 32 minutes instead of the 40 minutes it was taking me at the beginning of last week. I'm slowly knocking those minutes off!

    I am now googling Bollywood dance video that sounds amazing!!!

    I completed my diary and was 4 calories under.

    It's called The Bollywood Dance Workout with Hemalayaa. I've only done it the one time and didn't watch the rest. So I can't vouch much for it. I have quite a bit to lose so it was demanding for me. Wouldn't be that demanding for everyone probably. lol

    I hate bathroom pictures so much and avoid them, but yesterday I went into a restaurant bathroom and I liked the way I looked in the mirror enough that I had to send a picture to my boyfriend to brag on myself for a minute!

    A pair of smaller dress pants fit comfortably today - just in time for my mom's aunt's wake. (Yea, I know not the best reason to celebrate - but still - I was worried the pants wouldn't fit). First time I have been able to wear them in about 2 years.

    I was getting ready to head out to grab some office supplies for work and when I grabbed my keys I saw the crackers I had brought to go with lunch and was tempted to grab one and snack on it. I had it in my hands and I reasoned with the fat kid inside that I needed to put it back at wait for lunchtime!

    What is an "NSV"??

    And, how do you get those unique graphics for the pounds lost?

    Thanks,


    NSV is non scale victory

    and you get them off your profile page I believe..

    Thanks! I think I figured it out! Now, I just have to find a picture for my profile. :smile:

    My size 30 in the waist pants will not stay up without a belt. I need to buy pants with a waist size of 29 or 28.

    My NSV for today is that the bra I'm wearing is a 34in back - and it isn't squeezing the life out of me! Yesterday I was in a 36in back and it was so loose it wasn't supporting the girls at all.

    Cup size is an F so no complaints here, means I'm getting slimmer but not losing anything up top. Long may THAT continue haha.

    And no, I'm not taking pics.
