Anyone have any NSVs* this Wednesday night?

For me...

I always have "goal jeans." Right now my next mini-goal jeans are a 16T (I'm 6'0 tall). I put them on this morning and they zipped and buttoned. Granted I have some serious muffin top going on, so they can't be worn out in public yet, but I'll take it!

    I've been on this quest since last June. My chiropractor, whom I see about every 6 to 8 weeks, finally noticed at my most recent visit that I had lost weight.

    Those are great NSV's! Congrats! I also have a pair of goal jeans that I can't wait to fit into!

    I am not there yet but today while wearing one of my favourite pairs of gym pants on the treadmill I discovered a minute into my run that they would not stay up on their own! Kinda awkward running while holding my pants up but I was still smiling!

    Great to see so many people having awesome progress! Keep it up everyone! :)

    Though I can buy off the regular size racks, a lot of my tops and jackets are size XXL. I went out shopping tonight and got myself two new tops - size XL!!! I'm on a roll!!! Can't wait till some more of this fake "baby bump" (or non-existent one) is shed!!! :laugh:

    For years, when I got dressed I checked two things - make sure my shirt mostly covered my butt, and make sure it covered my lower stomach in front. In the last couple weeks, I haven't been stressing abaout it - I think my butt looks ok enough not to be hidden, and as long as I'm wearing pants that aren't loose, my lower tummy bulge doesn't even show. I never thought I'd get here, and it's an amazing feeling :)

    I know it is not wednesday but this is the topic thread that I needed to say what happened yesterday. So I restarted MFP 41 days ago. I had my old navy size 14 wide leg trousers that I would get up past my thighs but could not button. Well today I needed something to wear that required little to no ironing so I slide those bad babies on and I could button them. No they were not perfect but you could not tell me that I was not walking through my city like I wasn't the baddest chic in the world. I think it was the motivation I needed because the scale was not moving as quickly as my 21st century internet having mind thought it should.

    The biggest black jeans that I have and wearing now, they were tight and that I had to make sure that I used tops that would hide my front because of camel-toe. Sorry for TMI.

    Today, I can't be bothered anymore. Actually, the pant is starting to feel a bit loose but for now it is okay to wear them. I am just making up for those times that I could not wear it nicely.

    A guy curling 40s (using momentum of his spine) next to me stopped and picked up 25s after watching me curl 35s with perfect form and time under tension lol.

    I may not have not understood all the terms you used but obviously you have them watching and feeling like they need to step up their A game. Congrads on your lifting :smile:

    Im a little late on the draw as it is not Wednesday, but the other day I noticed a shirt I got that was originally tight was loose on the belly. I had figured I just stretched it out, but I took my measurements today and lost 5 inches off my body. My abdomen (waist, ribs) shrunk by about 3/4 of an inch each.

    Pick me! Yesterday I mis-paced mile 1-2 and had to slow to a walk. Instead of quitting (like my lungs really wanted me too) I kept at it and managed another mile

    Also tried on a pair of shorts that were too tight two weeks ago, they fit!
