    I posted a thread about this, but I should have just posted here. I am a picker, for lack of a better term. I dislike picker, but since American Pickers everyone knows what I mean.

    I was in a garage looking through a box of stuff. When I do that, I'll pick up lighter boxes and balance against my stomach rather than try to crawl around on a floor. The box kept slipping today, and I realized I'd been using a shelf of fat, and it's no longer there!

    I got a BEAUTIFUL ring with my birthstone (sapphire) on it for my high school graduation-- that was five years ago. I have not been able to wear it for the past two years... Been wearing it for the past week... AND it's a little loose! :D

    Since 7/26/11 I've been working on doing a push-up. A REAL one, nose to the mat, no break in form, no rear end in the air, full fledge push-up!
    I had a double mastectomy and my chest muscles just wouldn't ever allow me to do a push-up. Well I've been working hard to develope my shoulders, back, chest and arms and last night at the gym I did a REAL ONE!!!!! YAY FOR ME! Now I'd like to do 5 real ones in a row and I'm going to work on a pull up/chin up :)

    That is awe inspiring!

    ETA my NSV: Wife and I went to dinner on Wednesday, with me in the size 44 waist jeans I recently bought. She told me it was time to shopping for smaller ones because those were falling off...even with the belt on...:heart::drinker:

    I bought a pair of 16 shorts that I found on clearance this morning, thinking that they might fit by the time it gets warm enough to wear them....I've been between 18-22. I tried them on just to see how far I had to go, and THEY FIT.

    I had the courage to serve brown rice to friends and they loved it. A new staple in my cupboard. No more buying white rice

    not much, but I was able to mop the entire main floor without being out of breath. mind you, it's only one big area and the kitchen, but for me, it was a small victory!

    Scary NSV - Had to take my wedding ring off for the first time ever before my swim class because it was to loose and I did not want to lose in the pool.

    I will have to buy new shorts this summer. Did yard work last weekend in my current pair and they were falling off. Slacking and yard work: Bad mix. LOL!

    Congrats to every one!

    I went thru 4 pairs of pants this morning before work until I found a pair that kind of fit enough not to look like parachute pants!

    HA! Now that is a tragedy we can live with! Hooray for you!

    Sat down in the arm chair in my professor's office, with out thinking, and didn't feel the arms digging into my hips! It's been kind of embarrassing when I have to talk to any of the professors because the chairs felt so tight it was uncomfortable before.

    usually when I get out of the shower i dry off and throw the towel over the tub to dry. This morning I tied it around me. It went completely around me with NO gap in the front and it tied just under my arm pit. That is freaking huge. Why??? Because I'm in week 4 of Insanity and have been gaining and losing the same 4 pounds the entire time. Scale currently shows that I'm up a pound from when I started the program.

    Both my boyfriend and my friend from work have commented this week that I'm walking much faster than I used to, and they don't have to slow down so I can keep up with them :) HUGE win.

    I lost 10 inches overall at weigh in but no pounds in my first 3 months of my circuit training. Happy about the loss but trying to wrap my brain around the no weight gone part. Please tell me this is good! My clothes feel looser if anything.....

    Good!? It's bloody amazing! 10 inches is a significant amount to lose off of your waist. Don't be so hung up on the scale. Go on how you feel and look. If your concerned, consult your doctor.

    I wish it was 10 inches from my waist! Only 2 from my waist. The 10 inches is my waist, hips, chest, shoulders combined 

    I don't know what size pant I wear - because I've taken in ALL of my dress pants and ended up cutting out all the size tags!

    Scale hasn't moved in a month, but I'm down a pants size! Huzzah!!! Busting out of a size 28 a year and a half ago. Just bought (and fit into!) size 6 jeans last night!

    That is amazing! Congrats :happy:
