After buying all new belts when I first started losing, I got too small for them within two months. I had five or six new belts that I couldn't use, so I bought myself a leather punch. But an even better option is to buy belts with holes all the way around. I learned as I went.

I recently was out of clothes to work (all in laundry). So I pulled out a dress from way behind which I knew is tight to me. But in desperation I tried it and voila! it fit!!

This is an indirect NSV...

I power walk on a track almost every night for 3 - 5 miles. This older in shape woman I see often, but never spoke stopped me last week and complimented me on my weight loss. (I haven't lost weight... just my body composition has changed and I have leaned out more).

She also said I inspired her to put more effort into her walks when she see me going at a fast pace, pumping my arms and she noticed my good posture from engaging my core when walking.

From that she has lost 8 lbs this past month!

It always feel really good to know I have inspired someone. You just never know who is watching and who you are inspiring.

Felt so good I went for a run this evening. I never run in summer, I normally hate it.

For the first time in my life I can do a pull-up. :drinker:

I asked to teach Zumba at my apartment building and was told to submit a proposal. Thumbs up!

I joined a gym last week and have spent every workout session hiding at the back on a treadmill, but this morning I braved the weights machines for the first time and nobody laughed at me

I joined one last Thursday myself. Only missed one day so far. I love it. Keep it up.

I FINALLY got the courage to go into the free weight section at the gym this week, as I decided I am going to start a lifting routine to help me shed the last 30 pounds. It was such an empowering feeling, and I've already lost an inch around my waist since changing up my routine.

I helped my husband move a heavy box down from the attic, and instead of whining about how hard it was or how weak I am, I just did it! Then afterward, we talked about how easy that was. :happy: Stronger is better!

brianpride · July 2014

Shrank out of one belt and back into the one that didn't fit any more. Also had to tighten a notch on my fitbit wrist tracker because it was getting very loose where I usually wore it.

Okay so this doesn't sound like much, but to me it's a big deal. I washed some work clothes last night but my pants weren't dry enough this morning to wear. Since I have to wear long pants and apparently going to work in just your underwear is frowned upon, I was in a panic. In the back of my closet I have a pair of grey work pants I haven't worn since probably May/June 2013 since they gave me gross muffin top lol. They are a 20 but from the "regular" section instead of the "plus size" section so they are cut narrower in the hips. Much to my surprise, they slid right on and buttoned without me having to suck it in lol. My NSV - shopping in my own closet :happy: .

That sounds like a big deal to me! I just bought my first Large shirt in over ten years. It doesn't fit perfectly yet, but it will very soon! Doesn't it feel good getting out of the "Plus Size" clothes?

Yesterday I had my arms up adjusting a picture and my daughter goes "Oh my gosh dad, you have muscles!"

My wedding ring is loose!

fitfatty88 · July 2014

I'm not *quite* there yet. I mean they're still big girl pants lol, but between that, and the random XL light sweater I got at Banana Republic this weekend (on clearance for $9 no less!) I feel like either vanity sizes are giving me a false sense of awesome or I'm doing something right.

AmZam05 · July 2014

I just did the first weight increase for my strength training program.

Also this morning I buckled my belt on the last hole. Woo!

szkodzt · July 2014

I got up this morning and completed Day 3 of Week 1 of Jillian's Ripped in 30 even though I have a cold and haven't been feeling the best. In the past I would have totally used that as an excuse to skip the workout! And to make things even better, I felt much better after the workout

CJisinShape · July 2014

It seems like I've jumped the hurdle to focus less on the number on the scale and more on the process. I enjoy a wide variety of daily exercise, and I choose according to how my body is responding, not how many calories it burns. For example, if I'm feeling great, I'd go for an intense strength training workout, if I'm really sore, I go for a walk. If I didn't do cardio, I'll do some Zumba. I'm enjoying the process. I exercise at a health club, play with the kids in the park or the yard, do calinesthetics or a video at home, walk around the block or ride my bike. I enjoy it a lot. As for the diet, it's gotten a lot easier, and again, I think more in terms of, let me eat this giant bowl of veggies to get my delicious healthy in, as opposed to, I'll suffer eating this because it only has X calories.
