    I have had several besides the hubby text that I want to share. Can't help it! I am so excited!

    This week, several people have commented about my weight loss and told me I look great, what am I doing, look younger.

    I have been trying for 3 weeks to do a full get-up with 12 kg (26pd) kettelbell. Finally succeeded on Monday!! Did 2 on each side.

    16 kg (35 pds) dbk cleans on Thursday!

    The best was my 13 year old daughter saying, "Mom, don't take this wrong but do you know how far you have come?" Me - "what?" "Now, don't get offended but I was looking at some old pix and you have lost alot of weight!" Now why would that offend me!? It tickled me to DEATH!!! I am doing this to be a better role model for my kids! Glad they are noticing!

    My 3 year old son saw me jogging on the threadmill the other night and asked me if i was exercising, i told him yeah, and then he give me a thumbs up and said "good job daddy".

    This one makes me want to cry. Good job, everybody! These are so fun to read!

    I put on my wedding band this morning and I felt it loose on my finger. I guess I'm dropping ring sizes too :D

    After exactly a week of tracking and not seeing much improvement on the scale - I decided (3 weeks earlier than planned) to see if my measurements had moved..

    1 inch on waist
    1 inch on chest/bust area

    YAY! :)

    I've been wearing some old workout pants that fit perfectly the "last time" I took off weight...but now even those are ready to fall off. So I beat my own previous NSV.

    Nice job, kirstA90!

    I bought new, 2" smaller pants that I couldn't fit into pre-MFP. I fit into them at Easter, and I put them on again yesterday, and now the butt and legs are starting to sag already :-)

    I've been very disciplined for 2 weeks and here are my successes that I am so proud of:
    1. Put a pair of pants on and did not have to wiggle to get in them
    2. No craving for sugar or alcohol (thought this would be the hardest change to make)
    3. Consistently have worked out at 6:00am 4 days per week
    4. Tracked all my intake and counted calories
    5. Most of all, I FEEL DAMN GOOD ABOUT MYSELF!

    JUST DO IT:love:

    I love reading All of these NSVs! Everyone is doing an amazing job. Mine is that I have put so many miles on my hiking boots that in 6 months I have worn them out completely. Just got a new pair to hike off the last 36 lbs!

    I went visiting friends today, taking cream cakes with me (as it was my turn) and I didn't even want to eat one. Friends were happy too, as I can easily scoff at least 4, so they got to eat the extra ones :smile:

    I'm only 2 weeks in on MFP but my best NSV thus far was my husband saying;

    "Babe, I can tell you're losing weight....your butt isn't as big" :laugh:
    That man, he cracks me up!

    Also:
    -3.5" off my hips
    -2.5" off my waist
    -1" off my neck
    Loose wedding rings! (Husband doesn't want to have them re-sized again, we just got married!)
    and appx 5 pounds! :bigsmile:
    and a smidge of confidence.

    I ran 3 miles comfortably at a 10 minute mile pace which I have never been able to do! Also fit into a pair of my pre pregnancy jeans that I thought I'd never get over my hips again!

    I had to share!

    I had my blood pressure checked this week and its down to 121/69 considering I was somewhere in the range of 145/80 right before I started losing weight.. I reckon thats a pretty awesome NSV.

    Also! was able to go into a store and just pick clothes off the rack and try them on.. and they all fitted. Which was pretty damn amazing too!
