Last night after the gym, I was coming out of the shower and reached for a towel and noticed something in my upper arm. it was a very distinct bulge. OMG I HAVE BICEPS. I must have flexed about 20 times in front of the mirror. I will have to thank my trainer, even if I am sore today from the jump in weight from our previous workouts.

Also, noticed at work, my belly no longer covers my belt buckle! I can actually SEE my belt in the font again! Slowly but surely I am getting to my goals!!

And last but not least, I feel a new hole in the belt may be in order soon. I've kept the same belt from when I was over 600 lbs and have been adding holes to it as I lose, figuring that when I am at my goal, I will have the belt framed with a before and after photo.

    Framing the belt is an AWESOME idea!! Now you've got me thinking about doing something like that. You are doing great! Keep it up :-)

    Awesome!

    I had a little one this weekend. A bracelet I couldn't wear that I really like now fits me again. Love those NSVs.

    A top that I couldn't button up properly 3 months ago now does up all the way with room to spare. This is quite the victory as it's the top that pretty much sparked the start of my weightloss.

    Today I wore long johns under my jeans and they were *still* loose :bigsmile: I didn't think I could wear long johns anymore & haven't worn them since I was a size 5 :blushing:

    You go!

    I am wearing a top today that I was given as a present (by someone who obviously thought I was a lot smaller than I was at the time it was gifted) a long time ago. Not only does it fit me...it is on the verge of getting too big!!!

    I pushed myself and managed to run 10k this morning! Almost 5k without walking! I haven't done that in over a year! Woot!

    I bought a new pair of jeans after 3 weeks of starting my weightloss effort. I just bought the exact same pair of jeans but in the next size down 3 months later.
