    I have a couple I randomly ran into a relative today who was like you're looking skinnier today! First person to notice or at least acknowledge that I've lost weight even though I've lost 24kg in 3 months.

    I have only been walking for exercise and yesterday I thought maybe I should running- i could do it for a while without dying which I was soooo excited about. A few months ago I could barely walk down the street and now I can easy walk 6km with a bit of running!!! Loved it!

    1. The label in my jeans says "Slim Fit". Never in my life.
    2. I broke boards with a punch and kick in Judo class. Getting stronger.

    Getting tired of people b*tching at me about eating healthy - "You're in shape, have a couple slices of pizza! Jesus!" etc etc. They don't understand that it requires constant vigilance & carefully planned indulgences to stay in shape at my age (45).

    So. this morning I bought a dozen chocolate donuts & put them in the break room - anonymously.

    Getting some evil joy out of watching them disappear while I eat my egg white omelet....I do consider that an NSV!

    I went to the movies last night (to see Guardians of the Galaxy, YAY!!) and enjoyed some M&M's, popcorn, hotdog, and water. When I got on the scale this morning, I stayed the same weight! I didn't gain! Before I would have eaten SO MUCH FOOD that I would have given up on my new way of life. But now I see every once in awhile I can have treats and not completely get out of control with my new healthy life style.

    ME TOO!!! Well...I had popcorn and full calorie soda, but still. WIN!!!

    Some amazing NSV's here. Well done everyone :-). I'm currently wearing a pair of jeans that didn't fit when I first brought them a few months back. Not even sure I like them now but I'm wearing them coz I can lol.

    When I looked in the mirror this morning (in an outfit I wear on Fridays a lot) I could really see the inches I've lost in my middle.

    That is where I carry most of my weight and I have not kept track of inches, only weight.

    This is a HUGE NSV for me :drinker:

    I made it to the gym 12 times this month, thus qualifying for the $20 discount through my insurance for the first time ever!

    I'm able to wear leggings without feeling ashamed! Although the number on the scale has stayed the same, I also have a bit of definition in my abdomen as well as a slimmer appearance! So happy!

    I had my first bacon and egg sandwich for 5 months, today at 9.30. I was so full I couldn't eat lunch. I used to have one every Friday and always used to find room before! ( and yes, it's logged :happy: )

    Congrats!

    That actually sounds delicious right now. Unfortunately, I have no bacon at my house :(

    Reading these make me so happy! It's not just about the number on the scale! It's about seeing results by making good choices. It's about gaining self confidence and being a happier healthier YOU!

    Mine: I did 4 pushups the day before yesterday! Unmodified, sucky, regular, buy pushups. Didn't quite get my chest to the floor on the last 2, but it was close. Huge victory for me!

    My mother-in-law and a coworker both noticed that I lost weight this week. :)

    My mother-in-law is really proud of me - which I'm happy about, because we get along well and she really takes care of herself. Great role-model.

    Went shopping yesterday and all the clothes I tried on in my usual size either fit or were too big. Bought pants and a dress a size smaller than usual.

    BADASS.

    The bike ride I took today used to take me 45 minutes to complete, but today it was only 30. Time to map out some longer routes!

    Two NSVs this week:

    1) My trainer noticed that my body has changed. We measured, and I've lost 3 cm around the hips since the beginning of the summer.

    2) I went on a complete food binge last night (wine, pizza, candy - call it a cheat day or whatever) and miraculously didn't gain any weight!

    I have gone off BP meds and Diab. meds for the past few weeks and monitoring the results have been so encouraging. I work two jobs and worked a lot longer than usual last night delivering pizzas (my kryptonite) and didn't gain but 0.8 pounds. However, I was concerned that my glucose level was elevated this morning. No worries, I'll just work that off tonight after another late night delivering pizzas.

    In the end, if I get to my goal weight, not matter how long (1/2 done in less than a month), it will be all worth it.

    Great job on the NSVs everyone.

    Today I have on my "goal jeans" - size 8 skinny jeans from the junior department and my boy cut size 8 jeans are getting loose.

    ETA: I forgot I also passed my July running challenge commitment miles by almost 30 miles

    I worked out yesterday even though I was still a little sore and didn't want to. (It was raining....usually go walking, but instead did 30DS). And today I measured ^_^ Haven't lost a whole lot, but I'm slowly coming learning that it's ok. As long as I don't go in reverse!

    Edited because I forgot to say: GRATS TO EVERYONE ON THEIR NSV'S! =D

    I've been a treadmill runner for quite a while and have only very recently (say, maybe in the last 1 1/2 to 2 months) ventured outside.

    Well, today I did my first 10K ever! Outside!

    Oh, and my husband came running with me! That is a HUGE NSV for me. He's seen what all of my exercise has done for me, and he's jumping on the bandwagon, too.

    Went down a jeans size, and the wife heartily approves.
