What's Your Most Recent NSV

I've been wearing size 1XL-2XL shirts and size 16 pants (all US) for as long as I can remember. Today I was just looking around the stores because I didn't have anything else to do. I decided to try a size 14 pair of jeans and a couple of XL and L shirts. All of them fit, so of course I HAD to buy them.

Only 12 pounds down, but I've lost 10.75 inches (I measure everywhere!) in just over a month.

I last wore the dress I have on today a couple of months ago and spent all day wondering where on earth my massive belly had come from (biscuits... it came from biscuits). Stomach is by no means flat today but I really can see a difference in the same dress.

I've been using this app to track my weight and measurements now that I'm at maintenance. I wish I did it earlier, but I noticed my body was still changing even though I'm not in a weight-losing mindset.

So, I've lost a couple of pounds , but I'm still in my range and this morning, my weigh and measure day, my body fat % was down to 19.6% from 25 five weeks ago. I've wanted to be in the athletic range rather than average, and here I am! ;-)

I've lost a total of three inches, which doesn't show up too much in the photos I take, but I've started wearing a size 6 or small instead of an 8 and medium in a lot of new clothing. Hey! I'm 67. Eat your heart out. lol

Wow! You are amazing!

I have been over weight since i had health issues when I turned 30 years old..............now i'm 45 and gained a lot of weight but only became active in MFP July 1st. I have been working out 2x a day doing Jane Fonda and i've lost a bit of weight but the most important is that i went down a size in clothing since my waist has shrunk yeah me!

The waistbands of my underwear aren't tight anymore... Man, too-tight underwear is the worst. :grumble:

Wow, you people, all your NSVs are pretty darn awesome, you should be extremely proud of yourselves!!

Here are my NSVs for this week:

1. I fit in my mom's old jeans once again (I mean, I could zip them even at my highest weight, but I had this horrible muffin top, no thank you). She was thinner when she wore them than I am now!
2. I was checking myself out in a bathroom mirror (I'm too vain for my own good, lol) and noticed that my hip bones are visible. I was soooo waiting for that to happen. My old underwear is starting to fit better, too. ^^

I can eyeball proper portion sizes.

I have started to take what I think is correct, then weigh it to make sure. I want to teach myself what a proper plate looks like, since I won't bring my food scale everywhere I go.

This afternoon at work I was talking to a coworker and absently leaned forward a little bit and scratch/rubbed the lower-middle part of my back and I was alarmed by some weird knobby things on my back, I was like, "WTF IS THAT!?!" but hiding my alarm from the coworker. When he walked away I realized those knobby things were my spine. Never felt that before LOL

ASH2038602 · July 2014

Last weekend I went to the mall to try on clothes and realized I am down two jean sizes. Another big one for me is yesterday I climbed 42 flights of stairs (slowly) without a break. A few months ago, I helped a friend move and had to take a break after going up the stairs two or three times. I told him I want a do over on helping him move lol

Dropped from a 40D bra in April to a 36D presently.

I can also easily zip up a size 12 Capri that I had to lie on the bed to zip up 2 months.

no heartburn in over 2 weeks

livendive · July 2014

Saturday I ran a Warrior Dash (5k obstacle course in mud). Sunday I rode my bicycle 18.5 miles, generally uphill and into the wind.

NSV's are all I've got right now, as the scale hasn't favored me for the last 5 days despite beating my calorie goal all but one of them.

Two most recent:
1. Just signed up for my first 5k.
2. My mother-who delights in giving me new clothes, but only in L/XL sizes- finally accepted that I am a M-going-into-a-S, and gave me a shirt that I not only LOVE, but didn't have to give away because I will never be that size again.

This second one is a NSV for me that she finally accepts I am both serious and still healthy because I have SHOWN her that both are possible in conjunction, and for her in that she has embraced what I am doing, and is now eating a TINY bit healthier herself.
