Non Scale Victory at the pool!

I've had a number of NSV's throughout these 15 lbs, but last night was the very best one:
A swimmer who is a doctor and who hadn't been there in a few months asked me at the end of the workout if I had lost some weight. When I said yes, he said it was very noticeable in my face (the main reason I started with MFP in the first place!), and that my arms looked different and very toned (another big problem spot I thought would *never* change!) !!! This came in the wake of finally breaking a three-week plateau with a 1 lb drop, about which I was already pretty ecstatic.
Naturally I told him and the other swimmer in the lane about MFP.
[Other previous significant NSV's: my 90 year old grandmother noticed, other swimmers have given me compliments, my boyfriend's whole ski house noticed after only 10 lbs!)
Here's to dropping that last 1.5 lbs, cute new clothes, and lifelong maintenance! I'm wishing you all the same delight and success!
