Bought a dress in UK 18 a couple of years ago, should have been my size but was no where near being able to zip up and I cried so much and shoved it in the back of my wardrobe.
Thought I'd try it on for funsies as I have been doing quite well and it zips up!!!!! A little tight but the zip went all the way up
had another little cry as well haha 2 -
My NSV came yesterday. I tried on a shirt that I have not worn since 2009 or 2008 and it fit great!!! Also, I went to dinner with my friends and they were all like "You look great". Compliments are always NSV's to me.2

Went shopping yesterday with a friend, who convinced me to try on an EXTREMELY BodyCon dress...in a normal ladies size (not PLUS) it fit and looked FAB. I ended up with THREE of them! I live in rural Montana and have absolutely no idea where I will wear them, but I had to buy them! Same said friend, male, promised that he would take me someplace where I could "rock the dress...times 3!"3

After about a month of exercise (kickboxing and SoulCycle) and about two weeks of dieting, I shaved my legs this morning and realized that my legs actually have some definition!! And they were really firm!! It was pretty awesome.2
-
I went shopping with my husband for him, and I got some sweats, when I put on a large it fit, but I wanted to try an xl in case of shrinkage, my husband was , that is too big on you the large looks good. Lately he has really been noticing my loss and has been really been very supportive and saying how proud he is of me.1

I have this shirt with puffy sleeves, and the bottom thigh part of the shirt was always a bit thigh, now it's actually loose. (Lost weight prior to joining MFP)1

Today is the day! Official start of C25K and I have signed up for a half marathon in 2015. For me this is a huge NSV, as after only 8 weeks using MFP I have lost 18Ibs already.

I will succeed 1 step at a time, putting one foot in front of the other no matter how slow. ????????

My brother in law exclaimed at the weekend: 'where have you disappeared to!' and 'theres nothing to you!'
and another friend asked 'are you STILL losing weight?' :-D
those sorts of compliments never get old
also I now need a belt for my UK size 10 jeans!2 -

after hours of cardio and lifting and calorie control . . these appeared. At 49 I am fitter than at 29!1 -
Burning 450 cals in 40 mins on the treadmill walking as quickly as I could up a steep incline! Managed 15 mins on incline 15! 6 weeks ago could barely do 3 mins at incline 10! Thrilled!! I'll have to try to beat that next time!!!!2

At work, we have a mandatory obstacle course that is timed that we must complete it. Completed it under time and cleared all the obstacles under time...never have been able to do that before!2

So, we see ourselves every day and sometimes it's hard to tell what kind of progress we've made. I am very guilty of this. Every forum there's inevitably someone who says 'DO YOUR MEASUREMENTS' to track progress. I'd never been one of those people because I was so so so focused on the number. Well, on a whim in mid-July I decided to just do it. Since then, I've lost 2.2 lbs but amazingly, my measurements tell a different story:
Waist: -1 inch
Neck: -0.75 inch
Hips: -1 inch
Chest: -0.5 inch
I do thigh and arm measurements too but they're uneven (I run with a right side lean ugh)...So even though 2.2 lbs were lost, I've overall lost 5.5 inches. Kinda awesome.1 -
Small NSV this weekend! I went down a pants size! I'm no longer an 11/12, I'm a 9/10! Wooo, and I tried on some Silver Jeans and am usually a 33/34" and I was able to buy a pair that were 31". I initially went for a 33" which were waaaay too big, and the only other size they had was a 31". I was skeptical but decided to try them on anyways, and they fit!!! A little snug but that's ok. Plus as I'll be losing more, and Silvers are pretty spendy, I think it's ok for them to be a bit snug. Yayy!!!2

I bought size 10 jeans today. I can't even describe how good it felt.1

Okay, this might seem a silly NSV, but here is mine today. I made chili for dinner and measured out an exact serving of 11/4 cup. When I looked in my bowl I thought there was no way that was going to fill me up. But in the end when I finished the bowl I realised that I was full and didn't want anymore! So it's really twofold. One, my stomach has shrunk and I am getting filled on less and more importantly eating the right serving sizes and two, I recognized when I was full and didn't eat more just to eat because it tasted good. Both steps in the right direction to healthy eating!6

Wanted to post this yesterday but the forum was down! On Tuesday night at the gym after cardio and finishing tri & back workouts, my sister asked if I wanted to do an ab challenge. I'm a sucker so I went for it. 75 crunches, 75 side crunches on each side, 15 supermans, then 50/50/50/15 then 25/25/25/15...150 total crunches, 150 side crunches on each side, and 45 supermans. I'd never done more than 55 crunches at one time before!
Today is now day 3 in a row at the gym. We are probably doing this challenge again tonight.
Also...a MARATHONER actually acknowledged me as an accomplished half marathoner. I see myself every day and never think of myself as an 'athlete' in any capacity. I'm still smiling from it...doesn't hurt that I have a date with him next week

After finishing a half last Sunday and chatting it up with other finishers, we were talking about the LA Marathon, and I said it will be my first time. He commented that he was a Pacer in the LA Marathon was shocked to hear my story of my weight loss because he said, I had a "runners physique."3

My first non family member asked if I was loosing weight and wanted my secret! What's more is this was in my work scrubs!
And... Today I noticed that I'm under 100 lbs left to get to goal! That makes me very happy.

Put on my "skinny" jeans. They were too big! W00T! Of course now all my clothes are baggy. Shopping spree soon.2

No extender belt on the airplane! WHOOOOO!2

I was in for a medical procedure yesterday and the alarm on the machine monitoring my vitals kept going off because my resting heart rate was below 50. Every person who came in asked me if I exercise. "That happens with fit people!"5

My most recent was this weekend. I have been doing running on and off for the past year but only really got back on it properly over the last few weeks. I managed to run for an entire hour on the treadmill covering a distance of 7.9 miles. It wasn't so long ago I could barely manage 3 minutes. I was SO happy. Best feeling ever! I'm tackling inclines now! 2
-
I ran for 5 minutes, TWICE! I have never ever done that and thought it was impossible. I'm on week 4 of C25K and feeling great!2

Was walking around the grocery store in my old skinny jeans, noticed they were so loose that i looked at my boyfriend and asked, "are these like stupid big on me? I feel like they are just flapping around on my legs!!"
So i went to the mall, and bought a size i haven't worn in like two years--size 6! Looked in the mirror this morning while wearing the new pants with no shirt and didn't even have a muffin top. Tellin ya, guys, i could have screamed with delight.4 -
I purchased a new sweater for work last week. Old one was a 2X and hung off me horribly the couple times I've worn it this season. New one? A large.1

Had to get a new uniform belt from Supply 2 weeks ago. Still had more holes I could have used, but it wrapped from the front clear around to my side. New belt is sized 4 inches smaller and I'm on the largest size. It's only been 2 weeks, but I'm already halfway to the next hole. 1

A month or so ago I scored some amazing American Eagle jeans at a thrift store. Skinny jeans in "super stretchy" so they're wicked comfy... and in a size 4! My biggest size was about a 12-14, so that's a good feeling. Anyway, I was counting on these being around for a while, especially cause I'm pretty near my goal weight, but today they seemed more loose than they should be for skinny jeans! Whoohoo!2

I am still new here and lost 14 lbs from my highest weight 235 lbs and only 4 lbs since joining MFP. But its been nearly a month now that I have been doing push ups and planks daily. My NSV moment happened over the weekend when my mom noticed that my arms looked slimmer! She saw me after a month nearly. Also pushups are getting a little bit easier and I am nearing the floor a little by little!1

This dress fits.

Today I did my first push-up since breaking my wrist about a month and a half ago. It's a little thing but it's good to know it's getting better! Yesterday I also ran a 5k with negative splits for the first time, and about a week ago I ran 7 miles for the first time. NSVs everywhere for me! 1
