    I can wear my favorite jeans again and be able to breathe at the same time. Still not as loose on me as they should be, but definitely getting there!

    Chub rub! Doesn't sound like a NSV, does it? But bear with me...

    I run in running skirts with the built in bike shorts. When I was 20 lbs heavier, my thighs would rub together and the bike shorts would ride up from the friction. At some point, that stopped happening and I realized it was because my thighs had slimmed down a little and weren't pushing the fabric up anymore.

    FF to this week, 20 lbs lighter and suddenly experiencing chub rub again? Huh?!? Then I realized, it's because my running skirt/shorts are now too big and ride up on their own! So the return of chub-rub means it's time to buy some size mediums! Yay! :)

    A pair of jeans that were too tight last week fit now. AND they are regular denim...no stretchy spandex weaved into them. I honestly don't remember buying or ever wearing them, it has been so long.
    I've been wearing the same 5 (stretchy) outfits for so long that my family thinks I've been shopping when they see me wear an old piece of clothing from my closet. I also love putting aside the too loose clothes for donation. I feel a little "yay me!" with each one.

    I'm in Colorado for work for a couple of weeks. We're working inside, but it's a construction site and the heat isn't on yet. Since I'm spending my days sitting in front of a computer and not moving around much, I was freezing. Finally got tired of it and went to the local Target for a base layer to wear under my clothes to help keep warm. All they had left was on closeout and only Small or XL. I was annoyed because I was looking for a Large or, possibly, a Medium. Then I looked at the sizing chart on the box and realized that, by the manufacturer's measure, I'm actually a Small. I bought them, and they fit. That blew my mind. I've NEVER been a Small. In anything. Ever.
  • This is a really strange one but....I now need a mat on the gym floor to do my ab work because I don't have a "cushion" on my tailbone anymore.

    This is my ultimate goal NSV - being able to wear running shorts. Sadly, I don't think it's in my DNA since even when I was underweight, I still had chub rub. Great NSV for you!!

    The jeans I put away over a year ago because they were too small all fit again.

    The new running capris I got for spring had to go back for a smaller size.

    I WANTED to go for a run rather than eat sweets and biscuits when i got annoyed earlier

    all in all a good day

    A co-worker looked at me and said " go eat a Triple Hamburger and extra large fries - your going to blow away in the next storm".
    He is a skinny toothpick so when he says something like that its a good thang.

    Invest in some Body Glide ladies!!!! Its the best lubricant for running and other exercise where skin can rub, and it means that my thighs can tolerate running in shorts. You can probably get it online, or in most sports shops. Also helps with under boob chafing and blisters on your feet from rubbing shoes/socks. Its waterproof and sweat proof too, so it doesn't stop working when you start sweating. I sound like an infomercial, but seriously this stuff is great!

    I went shopping for a new raincoat today. My old one was an XL (the biggest size they stocked) and embarrassingly I had popped all the zips on the pockets when it got too tight... I've been wearing it around because last winter I couldn't bring myself to drop cash on a 2X raincoat that I really don't want to be wearing.

    Today I went into a shop, which went up to a size 16 (which wouldn't have even fitted before). I decided to optimistically try a 14, but it was a bit baggy round the middle. I ended up buying a 12!!! I haven't fitted a 12 for the longest time. Cue overexcited shopping trip where I loaded up on lots of size 12s (all on sale or clearance - score!!!).

    I forgot my non-workout pants at home yesterday, and had to run to TJ Maxx for a pair of work appropriate pants. I grabbed the first pair of size 8 pants that looked decent, and brought them back to the office without trying them on. Got back to the office and realized they were actually a 6, tried them on anyway and they fit!

    Wore what are supposed to be tight fit leggings to the gym today that I have had for awhile. I thought they felt loose but I wore them anyway, and while do box jumps they fell down... :neutral_face: Caught them up before anyone noticed tho. lol

    I cycled 263km non stop on Saturday. That was 8hours straight in the saddle (stationary bike). I woke up the next day and had absolutely no muscle pain. I didn't think that would be humanly possible!

    I need this skirt in my life so badly....

    I'd been wanting it for so long. I got it at Hot Topic. They have too much Disney stuff so I feel like I'm in high school again with how often I shop there. :p

    I was at hot topic yesterday...i felt the same way....is it bad that I'm almost 30 and still love the stuff they sell there? ugh...

    Two of my goals listed on my profile:

    - to not nearly pass out when climbing stairs
    - be able to buy clothes in a normal shop

    Both achieved (although only just for the second one!) after two years gym and sometimes eating sensibly. An added NSV, on holiday I went snorkelling, and to my horror realised the dive boat didn't have a ladder. I managed to get back in on my own (I did have visions of getting towed back to shore!!).

    Not at all. I'm 27 and I'm currently wearing a different dress I bought there. Also I bought another one there Saturday. Also there are two I want to order online. I refuse to let myself feel bad about dressing in adorable outfits.

    My pockets don't stick out on my dress pants, well one pair does a little bit depending on where the pants are sitting.

    Pulled out some old hoodies
    I used to lo
    Holy cow! Biggest NSV ever! I went to my dad's house on Saturday to pick up some items to go skiing next weekend. Mainly socks and gloves and glasses.
    I opened the box with all the ski stuff in it and found my old ski suit. Like OLD. Like 14 years ago old.
    I didn't even know my dad had kept it, considering that I'd only worn it on one ski trip and it was already way too small the following winter.
    I didn't know it back then but many many years wouId go by before I'd wear medium size clothes again. I looked at it, tried it on with disbelief and cried when it turned out to be a perfect fit again! Unbelievable!

    This is awesome!!
    Way to go, enjoy your skiing

    a couple of weeks ago i bought a pair of jeans in the size i used to "normally" buy without thinking about it...bonus that they were skinny jeans that i would often have to go up a size to avoid feeling like they were painted on. i know everything is "vanity sizing" these days, but they're a size down from the others in my closet from the same brand, so that feels pretty good
