3 NSV's in 1 week!! Is the world ending??

Hey all!! So I know that these NSV's are not that big of a deal compared to most of the stories I read on here... and probably nobody cares, but I'm so excited that I had to post something!!!

I've been feeling a little down this past week. I've been at the same weight for over a month now, and even though I've started lifting and trying not to focus on the number on the scale so much, it's still hard, you know? Anyways, these NSV's have really brought up my mood! And in one week!

1. I was dress shopping with my boyfriend for a wedding, when one of the sales ladies came up to help me. Generally I avoid them like the plague, mostly because they always ask, "And what size do you wear?" I always turn bright red and sort of mumble my size, all the while hoping and praying that she's not going to burst out laughing and say, "YEAH RIGHT! More like a 20!" So anyways, she asked THE question (and in front of my boyfriend, too!!) and I mumbled, "probably an 8. Or maybe a 6." She started to bring me some dresses (no outburst, phew!), but stopped and said, "I'm thinking more like a 2. Let's try some of those." WHAT!?! Me?? A size 2?? (A year ago, I would have been lucky to fit into a size 16.) I tried on the dresses, so convinced that I was going to rip them or look like a whale... but guess what? They fit!! And looked pretty damn amazing on me! I tried on 2's in a million other stores too, and every single one fit! I couldn't, and still can't, believe that's my size.

2. At said wedding, I got TONS of compliments from friends I haven't seen in a while, telling me that I looked "sooooo skinny!" These were the first compliments I've received. At all. My boyfriend (of a year) was shocked to hear everyone say that, because apparently he hadn't noticed that I've lost weight. Still not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.... guess it's good he didn't think I looked like a cow before, but bad cause he didn't notice! None of my work friends have noticed either... maybe it's something about seeing someone every day?

3. I was jogging on the treadmill today, and the lady next to me kept glaring at me. When I started walking for my cooldown, she was like, "God, I thought you were going to run forever! Wish I could run as easily as you!" I started to get annoyed because, hello, I worked my BUTT off to be able to run 40 minutes without stopping (thank you C25k), but then I realized... I'M ONE OF THOSE OBNOXIOUS PEOPLE IN THE GYM WHO JUST HOP ON A TREADMILL AND RUN! I always glared at those people too... and now I am one! CRAZY!

Anyways, thanks for reading (or skimming)... hope you all have fantastic days! Goes to show that the number on the scale really doesn't mean everything!
