What's Your Most Recent NSV

I discovered that I can actually run now

a guy at work nicknamed me "muscles". YAYYYY!

NSV-i can work out and get my heart rate up to 160 and keept it in the zone for 10whole minutes! and a friend i saw about 3 weeks ago said i look 'slimmer'

Scale Victory-lost 6.5 lbs last week!

My non scale victory today was trying on my boots from Christmas which were skin tight and I was barely able to zip them up, today they are quite roomy and I can slip in and out of them without unzipping!!

I did my first unassisted full chin up last week. I was very excited as it's been a goal of mine for some time. It wasn't exactly pretty, but I made it up

That is so awesome! i am working on pull ups...have been for 6 months. *someday!* thanks for the inspiration!

Early last week in the middle of a tough workout, after squats and burpees, I went to do box jumps on a 24-inch box. I had done them before, just not completely leg-worn like I was at that time.

First jump, barely cleared back before riding down the box on my shins.

"OK, I got this."

Second jump..."Oh, ****." Landed squarely on my knees, perfectly centered on the box. Hadn't been able to mentally get "on the box" since then.

Until today.

Finished my work-out (1 mile warm-up run, 10-9-8...1 count-down reps of burpees and sit-ups, 1 mile cool-down run) and decided I was not going to let the week end without conquering the beast.

10 jumps. 24-inch box. EFF YOU, BOX! I DEFEAT YOU!

And that is today's NSV.

I had 2 NSV today! My first one I was walking around campus and they had a little fair thing going on, and had Dippin Dots and deep fried oreos. I would've loved to have one of those, but I resisted because I'm saving up for tomorrow for the pub crawl. It supports the local animal shelter and I get discounted drinks, so win-win!

My second NSV was while I was shopping today, I went down a jean size. I actually bought a pair of size 6 skinny jeans, I never thought I would own a pair of those.

An error printed on a map led us on a 21 mile day hike (it was supposed to be 10 miles, LOL) - we didn't get back until after dark! It was hilly terrain so it was more painful than a marathon. I've been resting this week and I was sore as hell for the 4 days following...but it was worth it!

It's the photo that was taken last night with my daughter, it's now my profile pic and I actually like the way I look in it!

Being able to get back into the gym after 2 months off from injury and learning to listen to my body!

Yesterday at work we tossed around the idea of going out to lunch (Taco Bell, KFC, McDonalds) but I ended up eating the lunch I brought from home and saved myself a ton of fat and calories ! (and money)

keep at it! i just did my first chin up a few weeks ago and i can now do three with a brief rest in between. i tried for over a year before i was able to. i used modified pull-ups and let-downs in the meantime. you can do it! :flowerforyou:

I tried on all my old jeans today and can fit back into another 3 pairs! Haven't worn these for years!

My boyfriend mentioned how much more toned my legs are looking since I started weight lifting. I rocked my shorts today!
