I updated my profile picture today and I can actually smile now without having what I call double cheeks (extra fat off the bottom sides of my face)..... AND I have a neck now!
I am so excited I can hardly contain myself!!

Before I started, I had to get my jeans tailor-made because a 40-inch one wouldn't even fit me. Now I wear 32" jeans! Same with my shirts. An XXL before would be too small for me, and now I'm down to small0

Ive never posted anything in one of these forums, but you pose an interesting question...I really need to give some thought to "non scale victories".... I guess for now I can feel good about diminished cravings, quitting coffee, and better skin. Thanks. You look great by the way. Be proud of your accomplishments.0

Just ran 5K for the first time ever on Monday! Could barely walk 3 miles 6 months ago, let alone run it!0

You are all great inspiration!! For me its the moments when I catch myself in the mirror and have to look twice to make sure its still me Long way to go but its the little victories like that, like having others around me tell me that I've inspired them to get started, and fitting into some clothes I haven't put on in 8-9 years that keep me going. Way to go everyone!0

Thank you so much!
And congratulations on your victories!
I got so obsessed with the scale for so long that I didn't even realize I had accomplished so much.
It's important I think to recognize all the things that change as opposed to just weight loss.0 -
