    Being told I look fit by my co-workers. Love that feeling!

    There's nothing better than getting a compliment after all of your hard work! :)

    Before I really hit my stride with my weight loss journey, I was doing a play and ended up supplying my own costume. This morning, just for ****zngiggles, I tried on the pants. They fell off. No exaggeration. Completely slid right down my legs.

    That's wonderful, dear! :)

    My non scale victory of yesterday was that I had pizza for dinner and frozen yogurt for a snack AND stayed within my calories. Winner!

    I bought my first ever pair of skinny jeans in August (so excited). When I bought them I could put them on and button them up but they were TIGHT. So tight I couldn't really sit in them for fear I might rip my new jeans. Anyway, today I have spent the day pulling them up :)

    Ate a healthy oatmeal for breakfast and a healthy wholesome tuna sandwich for lunch. Very satisfying!!

    I got the lead role in a musical - Reno Sweeney in 'Anything Goes' - a 'bucket list' role for me. She is a nightclub jazz singer so a certain shapely attractiveness is required (and dancing). Pretty sure 8 months ago they wouldn't have considered me for a second.

    I finally figured out what NSV means! :wink: (and it's not related to NSFW). There are some great ones on here! I need those right now since the @#$% scale isn't behaving. We've had leftover Mexican buffet from a department lunch in the fridge for 3 days. I made a salad from lettuce, tomatos, and salsa and left the rest.

    I slipped on an old shirt for work today that was way too tight even two months ago. And my colleagues can't stop talking about how slim I look. I love going to work these days! :D

    Pulled Fall pants out of closet - they were too tight last year. Now they are TOO BIG!

    Me too!

    Although I was a little sad I slept through the weight when I could have worn them. They were my favorite pair!

    oh awesome! I'm hoping I'm in the same boat within a few weeks or so!

    Awesome! And a very late congratulations on your future little one! :) One of the reasons I'm losing weight is that i hear it helps boost fertility! Me and hubs want a little one so bad!

    The scale was nasty to me this morning. But when I looked in the mirror at myself in leggings, boots, and shiny shirt.... I feel great!! There is definitely progress happening here!!

    I ordered 2 bikins online....and assumed that they would have to be returned, but it was worth a shot! I got them on Monday and I was afraid that I would be disappointed so I didnt try them on until Wednesday. AND..... I love them both. I actually didnt even pick out anything that I would change and it felt AMAZING!! What an incredible change from the girl that was afraid to have to wear a bikini in public last year.

    Good for you! Speaking as a fellow actor, I know all about needing to fit a certain type in order to be cast. I'm proud of you!

    Got an email from a tennis friend today. She said she saw me the other day and i looked awesome. I wrote her back and said it was great to be out there, but that day - i really sucked! She wrote back and said " no silly - i didn't see you play - i just saw you and you were so Skinnie Minnie" !
