    When I started I had 3 pairs of jeans that fit me all size 18. I tried on all the jeans at the back of my closet this week. I now have 3 pairs that are too big, 4 pairs still too small, but 11 pairs of jeans fit me again! All of them are 16s, and I can pull the 14s up and button them but they are a little too tight.
    I haven't had this many pairs of jeans since high school.

    my spinning instructor is encouraging me to train to become a spin instructor. I still don't think it's a great idea, but from a guy that does spin, cardio kickboxing and strength training it's a success that he can see progress! Another instructor told me that I have good form when lifting too :) granted, these may be opinions and i get that...but they see progress and to me that's a success

    I looked at myself in the mirror yesterday and started doubting if there is still another 10 kgs of fat left too lose. I am still not sure, but I think there is.

    Meaning I have a good target to aim for and I am have lost about 60% of the weight I want to lose. Ok, so the NSV here is that my looks changed so much that I think of myself of getting quite thin, and muscular (they are becoming more and more visible)!

    Things have been going great all around. Tuesday marked my 430th day on MFP. Just staying committed has been a huge victory for me. On Monday I officially reached the halfway point to my goal weight (153 pounds down).

    People are noticing. A coworker who knows I'm trying to get fit told me that my weight loss was brought up by another coworker. My grocery store is located beside my gym and I shop there 3-4 time a week. Last week one of the workers was sitting outside talking with other while I was walking to my car. She yelled out, "Sir, looking good!" I overheard her telling her friends that I had lost a ton of weight. Just last night I was the same store and another cashier made the statement that I was "just melting away". Both were a bit embarrassing but made my day.

    Yesterday I wore a new pair of jeans to the office. The waistline in the new jeans are 18 inches smaller than I wore last year. Shirts have gone down 4 sizes as well.

    One of the best victories is my own self image. While I'm still not happy with where I'm at, I was able to look in the mirror yesterday and rate myself a solid, "Meh, not so bad". This is a major improvement over the utter disgust I used to see in the mirror.

    I just finished a week's holiday in the Vendee region of France. I ate more bread in a week than I have in a year, croissants and coffee for breakfast, shared an entire Brie cheese with my friend over the course of 2 days and drank wine every evening. I also swam in a lake, chased the children round the garden, built sand castles, body boarded at La Tranch Sur Mer, danced on the patio and loved my man.

    Not one single pound or inch gained.

    It must have been the new energy I have and doing so much activity. It just shows how inactive I am at work, sat behind a desk all day.

    Vive La France!:heart:

    had a teacher at my kids school tell me that i looked like i had lost some weight and was not breathing as heavy as i had in the past.

    played basketball with my 11 year old son and did not even have to sit down while doing it.

    Almost all of my clothes that I bought only a few short months ago are starting to get very loose on me. I bought some shirts in extra large ( I wear/wore a large), because if you accidentally dry them and they shrink a bit they will still fit. Well I ended up never putting these shirts in the dryer like I usually do with my shirts and they are falling off of me and they look like dresses on me, when I bought them they fit fine, they were big of course, but now they are way too big!

    Also, I wear/wore a size 12,(I am thinking I'm now a 10, YAY!!) now that I have lost weight, one of my pairs of size 12 jeans are FALLING OFF of me! I can take them off without unbuttoning/unzipping them. Makes me realize that, hey I actually am losing weight. I've only lost 12lbs, but everyone is starting to notice a difference, my stomach is getting flatter, my thighs are getting more firm, and my arms are starting to look really good.

    1. I put on a dress in a size I have never worn in my adult or teenage life. Only a year ago, I was a dress size 16 or 18. I proudly put on a size 8, and proceeded to cry, because that was a day I never thought would come :)

    2. I got honked at 2 times, in a positive way, while biking home from the gym. That hasn't happened to me in forever!

    I have 2.NSVs

    I am no longer , according to the charts, obese. YAY! Only 33lbs to go before I reach upper limit of "normal" range.

    I wore a dress I have not been able to fit into in 3 years and my neighbour actually gasped when she saw how much smaller my upper arms have become. :happy:

    1. I ate dinner and several lunches straight out of the garden.

    LOVE being able to eat out of the garden! Noms!

    I swam freestyle for half an hour without stopping. Three weeks ago I could only do a couple of laps without stopping for a breather.
