my NSV's this weekend

1 - I haven't been out boating since last summer, about a year ago, and have only been serious about losing weight since the end of last year, so I expected to have to adjust my life jacket straps, but it was surprising how loose it had become on me! :bigsmile:

2 - Climbing up the ladder from the boat to the dock, usually I've had to twist sideways to get my hips through. Now it's barely a squeeze at all, didn't have to twist. :happy:

3 - Walking from the CG station back to where I parked the car, I wasn't winded, and in fact had to go a lot slower because of another crew person who is very overweight and pokey. I was strolling along easily, holding a conversation, and she was working hard to keep up.

4 - Yesterday afternoon I walked 3.2 miles round trip to a coffee shop to meet someone (who was a no-show, but I kinda expected it so wasn't terribly annoyed) and other than realizing I should not have worn sandals I had no trouble with it. Wasn't winded, barely sweating, no doubt that I could do it easily.

ETA: 5 - Looking at how my most-worn bra is fitting in the cups, I think a bra-shopping trip might be in order. Not my favorite thing to do, but it's probably necessary.

All these are nice, because in the last 2 weeks I've barely lost 1.5 lb, which is discouraging. (Although looking back at the 30-day graph, it's a smidge under 5 lb lost, which is acceptable, so maybe I should stop stressing so much.) :grumble:
