Very stupid NSV

Hello,

I've just established a non-scale victory on my part. I have gone from not being able to wrap my fingers round my opposite wrist and meet them at the other side (at a BMI of 32.6) to being able to wrap and meet both the thumb-and-middle-finger, and the thumb-and-ring-finger. Comfortably!

As a result, I can wear my watch again. My hands look less like flippers, and the bone on the outer side of the wrist is starting to become visible again.

Hope this helps - at the right time in weight loss, this is a good measurement, and is really rewarding when it happens.

    Heehee, not stupid at all. I did it too. Was checking if my fingers would meet all the time and did a happy dance, when it finally happened. It's so rewarding to see all the little changes. And it's also very motivating.

    I was thrilled when i could do that again!!!
    Also, when I realized I had a chin bone and a collarbone! :happy:
    Oh, and when I remembered I had a hip tattoo that has been hiding for MONTHS! :laugh:

    Not a stupid NSV at all. I'm actually planning to get a tattoo around my wristbone when I reach goal to remind myself of the work I did getting there :)
