    Fitting into my custom, tailored suit from about 5 years ago. Alas, it will be a short lived victory...soon it will be too big, but I think I can take it in...I hope, it was spensive.

    Bought my third size 10 pair of pants yesterday. I'm starting to realize it's a trend - not a fluke!

    Also pulling out older clothes that I haven't been able to wear for years because they were too small and now they fit and look great.

    I love reading NSV's!

    Saturday I was at the store, I was dressed up really cute (plans to see a *friend*:blushing: ), and I notice a guy staring. He was staring so much that my daughter even commented on it. As I walked by him he even turned to watch me walk by. It has to be one of the best NSV's I have had in a very longtime.

    I was going to Florida for Christmas this year and cried because I couldn't fit in any of my summer clothes. Pulled out my box of shorts yesterday, and they all fit! Some were even too big.

    My most recent non-scale victory was being able to fit into a size 3 Levi jeans. They're still a bit snug for my preferences, but they do button and zip. I'm so happy!!

    I went to a baby shower a couple weekends ago and the instant I walked in the door almost every single person freaked out about how great I looked and asked me how much weight I had lost. Only one of the girls had any idea that I was even trying to lose weight too, so I know the reactions were genuine. It was such a great feeling!

    Mine was losing another pant size. Still a ways to go, but in a size that I haven't seen in a while. Heaven help my wallet when I get to my goal weight!! I can't wait.

    My Size 16 trousers (UK) being so big that I could pull them off without unbuttoning today I don't notice any difference in the mirror but I guess my waist and boobs must have gotten smaller this last month.

    Just keep going Jane........

    Got carded for a beer yesterday. I told the young lady I was old enough to be her mother. She says "oh, I don't think so, my mother turned 40 last month." NSV because I'm older than her mom.

    This really made me feel good because I've been feeling so old lately.

    Isn't that great?!

    I am enjoying going to the gym and can now do 20-30 minutes of walking, 20-30 minutes of the elliptical bike & weights all in one workout without feeling like I'm going to die.

    I went thru my closet and pulled out 4 grocery bags full of clothes that were to big. I came out into the kitchen and told my son,
    "I have to buy some new clothes!" He looked at me and smiled!
    I took the clothes to the Goodwill and will buy some jeans there. Costs to much to buy new jeans every time I go down a size, so this gets me thru until I lose the next 30 lbs and get to my goal.

    My most recent victory was that I can now jog (5 mph) for 30 min non-stop. This is huge for me cuz I have never been a runner and when I started the 1 min run 2 min walk for, however many times it was, just about killed me. Now the work begins on the 45 min non-stop :)

    I bought a pair of size 10 jeans yesterday from BJs in the same brand but slightly different style from the ones I already have that are a teensy bit snug on my waist, and they fit pretty much PERFECTLY. (a little long, even though they are supposedly a short length, but whatever, I will get them hemmed LMAO. Size got-dayum TEN.)

    Everything about this is amazing!
