Ran 7.8 mile without stopping, first time ever.
I can fit in some size 10 UK trousers and size 8 tops.
I have had a lot of people literally not recognise me.1 -

Look under your ticker. See the link that says "add to your site"? Click on that.
Copy the stuff in the left box (under BBcode).

2 yesterday, both in clothing.
After "the last straw" w/r/t wardrobe malfunctions (bra unhooking when I lift weights), I went to the big box store next to my gym & hoped I could find a bra that fit. (I'm a relatively normal band size now, but the cups still have to be big.)
20 lb ago I couldn't shop in a regular store, had to go to a lingere shop & pay $60+ each.
Yesterday I found a brand & size that works OK now, & I'll shrink into shortly so it will fit correctly, so I bought 3 off the rack, for under $8 each.
Then I saw a rack of winter tights & thought that would be a good thing for winter, so I looked on a package to see what size (if any) would fit... and not only did they have one that would fit me, it wasn't the largest size!!! Woohoo! So I got 3 pair.
And a couple weeks ago I went through my closet, put too-big stuff in the "donate" pile.
Discovered that I had _not_ previously donated 3 of my favorite skirts, AND they now fit.
In fact, they're a bit loose, so I'd better find an excuse to wear them soon, before they fall off me!
I think I'll measure & trace them & make a pattern that I can downsize to fit me.
(They're identical except for the fabric print.)1 -
My sister has made TWO comments in 2 days about how toned my legs are looking and how the "cellulite"is going away lol. It made me giggle with pleasure. Im not even going to a gym yet.. just started a new job where I am on my feet for 8 hours everyday. Woohoo!3

Trying on a size women's medium pair of ski pants for the upcoming season and having them fit when last year at this time I could barely button a pair of men's XL (because women's XL wouldn't even pull over my hips)!1
-
My size 10 ladies Levi's jeans are too big. It looks like I am a size 8. Just one more size to go til I hit my goal size. I have come a long way from my starting sîze...a 22.6
-
I ran in my first 5k yesterday. =D1
-
Logged for 30 days!
Also put on a sweatshirt that was definitely tight before and now it is loose.1 -
I rode my recumbent bike so long the time reset itself! I didn't even know it did that! lol2
-
My mum said my boobs were getting smaller..... That's sort of a victory, I guess! Shows the weight loss, anyway!
And I bought a new exercise bike over the weekend, so I should be having some cycling victories soon!!1 -
-
I ran for 10 minutes straight with stopping. Last time I tried I could barely make 5 minutes.3

Got a couple here:
my bra (38D) does up nicely without a bra extender now woop!
Also part scale and part non scale - I have lost 4 lbs this week, while last week I had gained 0.75lb (probable water fluctuation?) anyway the NSV is that I didn't even think about giving in or have negative thoughts about last weeks lack of progress, I just got on with things as normal and this weeks loss has reinforced this is definitely the right mind frame to have!5 -

That's brilliant! And a very important victory! That is the downfall of a lot of dieters Well done!!0 -
Wearing a size large petite shirt and it's loose...Also bought a size medium dress this weekend. I haven't fit in either in over 20 years!2
-
LEG FARTS!!! Ok...I will explain. I am a paramedic and I was struck by a car in the line-of-duty 19 years ago resulting in the loss of my left leg at the knee. I wear a prosthesis and it is held in place by suction. As I have been losing weight, I have been losing suction. Loss of suction = air escaping my prosthesis = LEG FARTS when I walk13

Also less self-conscious. The mirrors in dressing rooms are starting to look less like those carnival mirrors ( the ones that shrink your height and make you wider).2

My darling boyfriend wrapped his arms around me, under my over sized cuddly jacket and gasped! He asked me where I had gone
I also noticed that walking up 8 flights of stairs (4 floors) chatting to my colleague, I wasn't out of breath in the slightest!4 -
I biked over 47 miles on Saturday with a group of people who've been cycling way longer than I have been, and I stayed in front of the pack!!

Mine is very minor, but I started using my Fitbit 2 weeks ago and have hit my goal (7 miles, 15000 steps, 30 flights of stairs) 85% of the time. Still working on that 100% but I've been much more likely to go for a walk at night or take the stairs.
Also, this one's very intangible, but after all that walking, I went to shave my legs the other day and could feel defined calf muscles again rather than just jiggle. It was exciting to feel myself already starting to tone up a bit.3 -
Yesterday I ran 7 miles without stopping for a break or to walk.... I have a 15K scheduled in a few weeks and I am positive I can do it now.1
-
Just the other day I did was taking my measurements and was looking back at some of my old ones, and I realized I’ve lost almost a foot (11.5” to be exact) from around my waist! From 37” to 25.5”. That’s almost a third of the circumference gone! It feels really really good to be able to say that.7

braving the all male weights room alone and finishing everything in my workout- not leaving because I felt intimidated or silly!
Also comments on my bum being more toned! (thank you squats haha)2 -
Today I resisted that piece of free pizza I just saw in the kitchen at work.5
-
Today I ditched the baggy oversized t-shirt and ran in a tight fitting racerback singlet!!!
And I didn't feel self conscience at all

When I lay in bed (as I am right now ) my hip bones stick up severely. Also a pair of size 6 Limited dress pants fit very loosely on me!!2
-
Sometimes I don't notice the progress. The other day I realised that I was having to buckle my belt for my jeans on the third hole. A month ago, it was on the first hole and that was super uncomfortable. So there's obviously some progress!2
