What is your NSV this week?

I bought size 16 jeans (for the first time since High School), and a size Large button down!

Also, I'm doing much better than I had been in the 30 day shred!

:flowerforyou:

Negotiating an almost unconscionably great deal on a new gym membership: USD 60.00 down and 10.00 per month for the VIP package (even with the annual membership fee of 49.99 the net monthly payment would come in just under 20.00), which affords me — pun intended — unrestricted access to all branch locations, a complimentary one-hour session with a trainer (a bodybuilder to boot!), as well as a 100.00 credit toward future personal training services. What's more, my new gym houses THREE squat racks and circular weight plates; hitherto I'd been paying 79.00/month for a network of facilities that housed but one squat rack and dodecagonal plates, often bumper plates at that. While I may be forgoing some of the creature comforts such as towel service, a swimming pool and full-sized basketball court (the latter two I rarely used), if I wanted pampering I'd go to a day spa (now a theoretical possibility with my newfound monthly savings of 75%), amirite ladies…

PS Please feel free to add me as your accountabilibuddy so that we might share in our joys and occasional sorrows; not a "friend collector," have never deleted anyone, nor have I the intention absent harassment and/or threats to my physical safety.

A woman at the gym (who I haven't seen since last summer) said she didn't recognize me. She said that she took the majority of our class trying to figure out if it was me or not.

today at the gym two guys stopped and told me how well i was doing and looking


yesterday while getting the hairs cut a customer who also used to work there didnt recognize me at all and we have talked plenty of times

The last time I bought jeans, I bought a pair one size smaller than what I wore at the time. After getting some teasing at work for my "clown pants" I started wearing the smaller pants. And they are still a bit too big. :-)

I had to buy safety pins to hold my pants up. I've only lost 15 lbs but also lost 3 inches, so I'm pinning myself together until I can buy some replacement pants LOL.

Dresses are great too. Just throw on a belt and it doesn't matter if it is two sizes too big :flowerforyou:

I had the confidence to sing a duet in church.
I had my first real "look at you! You are gonna be skinny!"
I put my bra on the first hooks instead of last, I will need a new bra soon.
I had a fight with DH without a cheesecake soother.
I found out I can live without milk and sugar in my four daily cups of hot tea!
I am feeling good!!!

I have a few NSV's from this week.

1.) I can finally fit a shirt that I bought five years ago on vacation

2.) I went into he store to try on a suit and the salesman directed me to a size I have never work and when I tried it on it fit like a glove. (Size 48 down from a 52/54)

3.) I bought a smaller new pair of jeans.

Using my fitbit one, I walked 20,000 steps for the first time yesterday....:)

I realized I can now get up off the floor without struggling

Mine is that I pulled out and tried on a bunch of clothes my mom just gave me on my last visit to her to take her shopping b/c she shrank out of them. I shrank into them. Perfect TIMING!

I had my implanon birth control removed

Tough Mudder yesterday!!

:drinker:

My resting heart rate is 48 beats per minute.

Buying my kids new school shoes and happened to glance at myself in the length mirror they had for customers and didn't recognize myself for a few seconds...hehe! I had to take a second look to make sure it was me!

...also I did ten minutes of jump rope yesterday!
