    I've been beating myself up since my scales says zilch, notta, nothing, no change lately. I just got back from a funeral and a girl I hadn't seen in a while said "I didn't recongnize you, you look different, like smaller, a lot smaller". I told her I had on flats and she said "no, you've always been short (thanks!), you've lost a lot of weight". No but thanks anyways!!!

    Hat tip to another MFP member for pointing this out, but yesterday I realized that I've crossed below the lie weight I've told the driver's licensing office for many, many, years.

    I'll be at my goal weight later this year. It'll be a pleasure to renew next time.

    Oh, wow! I just read this and went to get my driver's license to look at it. My highest weight was 230 when I started this process, and my "lie weight" was 220 on my license. On Sunday, I weighed in at 190!!!! Not only am I 40 pounds down now, I am 30 pounds under my "lie weight"!!!!!

    Congrats to you and a hat tip to you as well. Thanks for posting this, this has made my day!! :)

    @LaceyBirds my pleasure. Thank @wishiwasarunner for the idea!

    How many of us had lie-weights on our drivers licenses I wonder!

    I just pulled both of mine out to check! Luckily PA never listed a weight or it would have been way off! I've lived in CA for the past few months and this is when I've lost all my weight. I am 2 lbs away from being at the weight on my CA license though! That was a 30 lb lie!!

    I had to buy some new clothes today since my summer clothes are getting really baggy. I tried on a medium shirt, and it was too big - I had to get a small! EEEEK!!! It's been 10 years since I've been a size small! Granted, the shirt is a bigger make since all my other shirts are a medium. But I'm taking advantage to be excited!!! B)

    Work pants can no longer be worn, falling off even though they are stretchy

    Victory indeed!!!

    I'm slowly moving into maintenance (leaving on a six week backpacking trip next week, during which I hope to maintain since I don't have so much to lose). So because I'm stalling I did not really measure lately. Took measurements today, turns out I lost 7 cm (2.7 inch) across 4 measurement points in 4 weeks!

    Ran 4.5 miles! Have been struggling with injuries so getting back to 3+ miles feels incredible.

    I listed my DL weight as 20 lbs. under my real weight at the time. I thought if I listed 50 or 60 lbs. less, I might get the side eye from the clerk.

    I'm now 20 lbs. under my DL weight.

    May not be a NSV per se, but I stopped logging for the last two months or so and only gained a pound. I know, it's not the same as maintaining or losing, but I guess I've started to ingrain in myself the fact I can't pig out, that I should have really sensible breakfasts and lunches, etc.

    I bought a top to wear in April on my cruise. It was too tight to wear so I put it in a drawer. I have it on today and it is baggy and I keep having to pull up the neckline.

    Donated blood today and when they asked me my weight I was happy to give the number.
    Comfortably in a men's medium shirt. I bought a unisex medium shirt on vacation as a 'maybe in a month or so' shirt and this past weekend I put it on no problem. I didn't feel the need to tug at it like I used to have to with my unisex large/XL shirts :).
    One part of the training I do at work for new hires is to go around the room and discuss hobbies and what we enjoy. I always know one of mine will be running/half marathons. This most recent group was excited to talk to me during breaks about working out and races...it felt nice having people not look at me like I was lying lol!

    My weigh is lower than my drivers license, and I know I probably fibbed by 10 lbs when I got it. I just got my renewal postcard in the mail. Unfortunately I look older..... Blaugh.....
    I had a lady in my quilt guild tell me she should take a picture of me to inspire her to loose weight.
    People say things like you have lost weight, or look good, and I don't think they really get it that's it's a daily struggle for every pound you loose. And the last 15-20 lbs I have now are going to be the worst. I do feel better the last 6 months and am very happy I started logging and everything. I know I can do it, and will do it, just keep doing what I am doing and try to be as active as I can.
    Keep up the posts everyone!

    I just posted this on my profile, but figured I may as well share here too: I've just discovered one of the best feelings, being able to wear an 'over-sized' style top without looking like I'm just trying to 'hide my fat', i.e. it's a floaty top and I still have a visible waist! It's all worth it just for that, haha. I'm not toned at all so I have lots of wobbly bits, naked me is quite scary lol, but in clothes at least I actually have figure definition. Yay!

    I've done yoga once a week for two weeks and I've already got my flexibility back to touch the floor with my legs straight. :lol:

    Thanks! I hope to get my palms on the floor in two weeks. :wink:

    I'm actually hyperflexible which means I can do a lot with my body, I just don't have the strength to hold it, hence the yoga. We're working on my weak points (my hips) like a boss.

    Does anyone else have problems with inverted triangles? I feel like I'm one gust of wind away from going over. :tongue:

    Today's NSV: Finished day 8 of JM 30 Day Shred. A- I really didn't feel like working out today but I did it anyway and B- this is the longest I've stuck with the program and a lot of thanks goes to my work/workout buddies who are doing the video with me :)

    I ran 4 miles today. On the treadmill. I've never run 4 miles before in my life!

    I ran 1.5 miles tonight for the second time since I started running a month ago. I cut 27 seconds of my time which I was proud of. The best part was I then immediately played 40 minutes of tennis with my fiancé after. 3 months ago I wouldn't of even played tennis without complaining. I'm also much more agile and play much harder now. It's a lot of fun now. The increases in my cardio stamina have been incredible.
