Here is my NSV I have to share:

I went dress shopping today for my friend's wedding on my lunch break. I grabbed a few dresses because they were clearance but I figured were too small for me. Oh well, motivation I thought. Well, I tried them on and they FIT! I am now down to a sz8! I used to be a size 18 tin 2009 , the last time I attended a wedding - I cannot wait! I have not been this size since I was at least 18 years old. Totally stoked to loose the last 11 lbs to my GW!

Stats:
27 y/o
Height : 5'11"
SW:200lbs
CW: 161lbs
GW:150lbs

    Thanks all! It's great to get some validation and finally see some pay off. It's taken me a logn time to get to this point, learning, working out, using MFP, etc. I now SWEAR by heavy lifting!

    I may go back and buy that dress today! :))
