Today I did one overhand grip and 2 underhand grip unassisted pullups:drinker:

First time in 15 years I have been able to do this!:heart:

What is your NSV today?!?

    Wearing size 34 pants!! I was pushing 40's.

    When asked what my goals were when I started the gym I said that I wanted to do a pull up. Just recently ripped off 4 of them babies. Now if I am ever hanging on the side of a cliff or a building I can maybe scream for help before falling to my death as opposed to just falling.

    I had to use a belt with the denim capri pants that were too tight to even wear recently.

    Beautiful work on the pant size and too fricking hilarious!

    The pair of jeans that I bought a month and a half ago that were tight on my thighs, are much looser now! (I bought them as motivation, and it's working!) :)

    I'm wearing a pair of white capri pants that the hook and bar closure is torn from wearing when I was too big and sitting in them. Only now the closure works with the one hook left, and I'm considering taking it to the tailor for the reparation of the second hook, only they are already loose and by the time I get them back I may be swimming in them. I think I better take them in though, cause I need something to wear. I am down to one pair of short shorts, one pair of long shorts, and two pair of capri's for summer. I really need these to be wearable and will put a belt to make them last till fall.

    (in case you don't know how i could tear a hook and bar closure just by sitting, it's these flimsy things on even flimsier material. )tumblr_lm14odZoI51qfbxhx.jpg

    I wore a button up shirt this past weekend that I had to sausage myself into a year ago- I usually wore a body shaper to try to hide everything, especially through my bust and rib cage.

    I had room to spare this past weekend! It was roomy and I didn't have to wear anything but my own skin to get it that way. :)

    Have you tried thrift stores/goodwill? It is the only place I am shopping until I hit maintenance!:drinker:

    I've got two pairs of pants that are different sizes, although otherwise identical. There was a time not long ago where the larger ones where preferred because the smaller ones were a little snug. Well, today I was planning to wear the smaller pair, but after finding that I could slide them right off, easily, after they were buttoned and zipped, it occurred to me that there's just no way I can wear them anymore.

    Nice way to start the day.
