    I fit in my pants for almost 6 years ago and my back roles have finally disappeared!

    Won more games than I lost at my badminton tournament last weekend! I feel faster and stronger than ever, even better than when I gave it up at 20! I'm proud to consider myself an athlete again, rather than just wishing I was in better shape! :):)

    i cried like a baby in the dressing room when the size 6 name brand jeans slide right on and buttoned up ...
    That is awesome! That is where I want to be and after completely blowing my diet this thread is exactly what I needed. Thanks to all.

    I'm totally honest. I've always been athletic so I'm familiar with muscles. My biggest NSV is feeling my bones because they were always covered by tons of fat ex collar bone, ribs and hip bone and wrist bone.

    Loving this!
    -my wedding ring fits again and approaching too big, really important because it belonged to my great grandma.
    -down a pant size
    -needing to buy new bras and underwear cuz mine are too big, while I had smaller pants in stock, I do not have those in smaller sizes lol
    -having my 95lb mother in law, little half Asian lady, tell me I am starting to look skinny, even though I had only lost 22lbs out of my 83lbs at that point.

    I had these XL olive green yoga pants that I loved! I wore them for years, and never got any holes or stains on them either. Sadly, I finally had to donate them last month. :frown: Despite them having an elastic waist they literal just fell when I stood up. It was so hard giving them away, but still an awesome NSV!

    i can wear my first sterling silver ring my daddy bought me when i was 7 years old on my ring finger- hes gone now so this is special to me.

    i can fit in a airplane seat in comfort- the seat belt fits easily

    i completed a 1/2 marathon.. almost nothing like that feeling.

    all my jeans in my closet are now fitting.. size 12;s almost 10 now going from a size 35..

    put my uc in remission through nutrition

    ok ok ill stop.. been on this journey for awhile.

    When I completed a race in exactly the time I set for myself. I was so proud of myself. I also ended up doing a "better" time than two friends who had trained specifically for the race.

    I started c25k on Wednesday and when I did day 2 yesterday I cut 42 seconds off my pace. I think that's pretty major for a fat chick with no cardiovascular endurance.

    Looking at the clothing catalog that came in the mail, and realizing it was a plus size catalog, and they didn't carry clothes in my (small!!!) size!

    This! ^^^ and that my "high school" jeans are comfortable. I was thrilled to be able to pull them over my thighs, and now I can wear them with a tight shirt with no zip up jacket needed to cover the muffin top.

    I've joined the size 8 jeans club. 14 months ago I wore 22W! And I wear the same size 8 jeans as my 20 year old little daughter.

    A friend of my husband's asked my husband if I had been a model. I had never met the guy in person until then and was very flattered:)

    When I went for my yearly checkup last summer, my doctor took me off blood pressure and cholesterol medications. That was a great payoff. And fitting into size 8 jeans was a milestone, too!

    Fantastic NSVs, everyone! Awesome job!
    And last week I found my wedding dress from 1977 in my cedar chest. Decided to try it on - IT FIT!!!

    -- A couple of months ago I experienced the same thing with my wedding dress from 1979. :happy: Also...
    -- Participated last September in my first fitness event since 2002. I climbed 110 flights of stairs in our local hospital's 9/11 Memorial Fitness Challenge.
    -- Returned to running, now that my old running clothes fit again! Am registered for my first 5K since 2002. (Am slowly building my stamina back up. Back in 2002 my longest outdoor run had been 12.5 miles at a pace of 13:08; two weeks later I had run 11 miles at a pace of 12:39. I had also been 12 years younger.)
    -- My blood work is awesome.

    Keep up the great work, everyone!

    My favorite kickboxing instructor telling me she thought I should become an instructor. At first I thought maybe she was just being nice, then she gave me her cell number, added me on Facebook and has since become my mentor. I wanted to become an instructor before she even mentioned it but was getting in the way of myself, she saw that and has been monumental in helping me see my own potential. I dont even have words to thank her enough!!! Ive now taught 2 bootcamp classes and am working on getting certified :-)

    Trying on a new pair of skinny jeans and thinking surely a size 14 would fit. Becoming very fustrated that they were tight, and then discovering that the label on the jeans were a 12, size smaller than I thought they were! :D They had put the wrong price tag with size attached wooohooo

    I live in Europe, where the tables in restaurants tend to be very close together, making it hard to squeeze in between two tables to get to the sofa-side of the table (many tables are up against a wall with a sofa-like bench as one chair and a regular chair across from it). I couldn't fit through the tables in most cases, or had to move things off the tables so my hips didn't knock things over (a real problem in Scandinavia, where every table has a burning candle on it during winter). Now (69 pounds later) I can zip through the space without even having to move anything or apologize to neighboring tables!

    When I won my age division in a local 5.5k race, sure there were only about four other people in the division with me, but I have never been all that sporty and didn't think that I could do something like a running race and actually come first in something, that was a pretty great moment!

    My NSV for the day: I cleaned out part of my closet, tackling just the pants. I tossed out 18 pairs of jeans and work pants (this is round two, I tossed a bunch back in July as well) that have gotten ridiculously baggy. Even jeans that were tight when I was in grade 8 (I'm now 25 years old) are too loose. Definitely in the best shape of my life!
