What was your NSV today?

I try to look for one every day. NSVs can be so much better than the scale kind.
Today I walked into Five Below (the store where everything is $5 or less). They had yoga pants for $5. I bought a pair. They fit. I walked into a bargain store and walked out with a $5 pair of pants, like a regular person. Unless you used to only be able to shop in a plus store, you can't even know how amazing this feels. But I bet a lot of you know just exactly how amazing this feels.

Congrats! I love a good bargain, and I also truly love the NSV's.
Today I went boots shopping. Although it was great to find boots that easily zip up over my calves (That's my NSV.), it was a bummer that I was unable to purchase a pair due to them being too big in my ankles.

I was able to find pants my size but not my height. Seems stores think women can't be tall. But at least I could find my current size. ^_^0

First thing I did after I woke up - worked out. Even though I hadn't slept well, was sleepy, tired, cold, feeling lazy, etc. I got out and did my workout. For a person who is so easily giving up this was huge.0

I got married almost 15 years ago, and have had 2 children
6 months on MFP and in the gym I tried on my form fitting wedding dress from 15 years ago today even though I'm still 3lbs above the weight I was then
It fits
In fact it's a little loose across my hips

Tried on a bunch of clothes to clean out my clothes and get rid of clothes that had been in storage for a year or longer. Much to my surprise, I easily have one large garbage bag full of clothes that are too big for me that I am giving away (I don't want to go back to those sizes and I refuse to buy bigger sizes so I can go back there). Several of the clothes that I had put in storage because they were too small, I will be able to wear now. Which is great because several of the jeans still had their tags!0

Still living off the high of yesterday's NSV. Ran 13.6 miles/my first half marathon and with a faster pace than I ever have. Finished before my goal time.0
-
Both my jeans fit again AND I can breathe and move in them! In fact my muffin top is now smaller than when I first bought one of them.
I don't like jeans that much though, so I'm waiting for my next goal: have my skirts sit on my hips again instead of high on my waist

I just bought 4 LARGE t-shirts that fit me. I used to wear XXL at one point. 0

Today I put on a tank top that used to stretch tight and unflatteringly across my stomach but today it flowed smoothly over me with room to spare.0

I just came in from shovelling my driveway and sidewalks. Last year I considered it a good workout. This year it was like nothing. I wouldn't even count it as exercise 0

Completing 30 minutes on Level 8 on the crosstrainer (10 minutes were actually level 9), whereas weeks ago I couldn't even complete 30 minutes at level 5
Love these threads - there is a longer one over at: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/comment/30401214#Comment_304012140 -
Thanks Rodderick! I'll check that one out as well.0

When I started five weeks ago I was at the middle of the five holes on my belt and two weeks ago I switched to the last hole. Today, I had to punch a new hole in the belt. I also just ordered 3 new pair of jeans one size less than what I'm wearing now.0

I ran today!!
Just last week I started trying to jog, doing intervals (walk 90 sec, jog 30).
Today I bumped up the top speed to over 6 mph & was doing pretty good. Still can't hold it for more than 45 sec to a minute, but that's a bleep of a lot better than I could do this time last year!!!!

Just logged my 30th day on MFP and also now easily fit into several item that were in the too small box0

Finding boots that I can zip up easily, woot woot!!!0
-
People (besides me!) are actually starting to notice my weightloss. Also... I can run now. Like, it is fun to move and my body enjoys the exertion!0

My family, who I haven't seen in a couple weeks, all said I'm looking great! 0

today I bought a new shirt it was a large I haven't worn a large since grade 5 and was wearing a 5x 2 years ago also got new jeans 36 waist 2 years ago was 56 waist and was really tight0
-
Today was my 130th consecutive day of logging. And even though today was a gain, I'm not going to get discouraged or eat a bunch of stuff I'm not supposed to, and perhaps tomorrow, I will be back down.0

Put my watch on and noticed it fit on the next smaller hole that I normally wear it on.0

I chose poorly yesterday with my food choices and still picked myself up and moved on with it instead of using that as an excuse to derail the whole way of life and even went to the gym as planned yesterday 0
-
My BMI moved down 3 points! I was so excited by that.0

Nice job! I didn't eat well either yesterday, but I got my morning run in plus walked to/from work (an extra 4 miles), and have decided to walk today and tomorrow as well. Also heading out the door now for my run today 0 -
I prepped for Thanksgiving this AM- turkey out of the freezer, homemade cranberry sauce and the ever popular green bean casserole. I was in the mood for pumpkin pie so I had a serving of crustless pumpkin pie for breakfast with a dollop of fat free cool whip. Logged it for breakfast without one smidgen of guilt. You can fit in treats while meeting goals on MFP.0

Last night I took a House Party class. During the squat song, I was able to do the ones with your legs together and my feet were touching! I used to have to stand with my feet a couple inches apart because my thighs wouldn't let me get my feet that close to each other.0
