    I ate only one piece of pie yesterday. I also didn't keep going back for food when my mouth wanted more by my stomach was satisfied.

    My NSV:
    - Increased to a 32.5kg barbell for my bench press! I started at 25kg in October and I am so excited that I AM getting stronger and fitter
    - 1.44km run in 11 mins, an increase of 0.2km! This time last year I had severe Illiotibial Band issues in my right leg and couldn't run more than 150m. A change of shoes, losing weight and remedial massage has helped so much!
    - My husband has commented how much more toned I am...he is impressed!

    Wishing everyone here a belated Merry Christmas :)

    Large shirt down from a 2X and 38 waist jeans down from 46s that probably should have been 48s. :)

    It was gorgeous here on Christmas Eve but I had to work for part of the day. Rather than just loafing at home when I was done I went for a hike in the park. Ended up doing 3.5 miles without even thinking about it and only left because I had plans.

    Ended up being the one by the tree handing out presents during my family's Christmas celebration so a LOT of random pictures were taken of me in the background. So far of the ones posted, the only thing I'm upset about is a few very derpy faces I'm making and NOT because I don't like how my body looks when I'm helping kids unwrap presents or handing gifts out. A major, MAJOR improvement for me.

    Went out with my 86-yr-old mom yesterday. She said my jacket was too big and she insisted on buying me a new smaller one!

    I just started in September and have lost 18 pounds but still have 42 to go. But I have had a couple of NSVs already.
    1) I finally fit into a pair of jeans that I haven't been able to get on for over a year.
    2) I was at the church the other day and I passed a mirror in the choir room. I always hate my reflection in this mirror because it is a wall mirror that is just leaning against the wall and it gives you a distorted image. Kind of like a fun house mirror or seeing your reflection on the side of your car. But when I saw my reflection I looked good and realized that I really did look that bad before and my image wasn't distorted. I have mixed feelings about this one. But I felt really good to see how much better I looked when I am only 1/3 of the way to my goal.
    3) This is kind if a scale victory. But I weigh less than my husband for the first time in a long time.

    I have made some wonderful friends in a MFP group, and I feel I have the support needed to continue my journey and eventually reach my goal!

    Need to stay motivated (after Christmas with New Year's still to come!) so I trolled the back of my wardrobe this morning and found three 'new' outfits to wear to work next week! So motivating!

    Putting on my ski pants yesterday and realising they're really loose and super comfy (they were seriously close to exploding every time I put them on last March). I started off in August 2015 with 2 goals: one was to fit comfortably into my close again, and the second was to reach my goal weight. Super psyched I reached one of those goals in 2015, and I have the other one to look forward to in 2016!
    BTW, shoutout to everyone who's posted on their NSV. What a lot of motivation on this thread. Amazing!

    The belt I bought for my work pants (in January) that used to barely fit and be a little tight when I sit now has to be in the 5th (and last!) hole, and is still a little bit big when I'm standing.

    Also just before Christmas I tried on some dresses, the 2x in plus sizes I expected to fit was very large on me, and the size 18 I didn't expect to fit (used to wearing a 22/24) fit perfectly!

    At Crossfit, I did 150 wall balls in 6 minutes, 10 seconds...Trainer said it's probably the best time anyone has ever had there! And, I decided to go back the same day for another class and do it all again!

    Looking at myself and not adding 50 more pounds to what I see-but really seeing what I look like and embracing it flaws and all :smiley:

    I love this thread and read it often to keep me motivated.

    At Christmas my mum said to me...you're not going to lose any more are you? It's the first time ever she's implied that I'm not horrendously fat! And yes, I am still about 30 lbs away from an ideal weight, though might settle for 20lbs more.

    My most recent NSV is taking a selfie with my daughter and seeing dimples again! I have hated how I've looked for so long and I actually don't hate this picture and my dimples are back. Can't remember the last time I saw those, I know it was when a Bush was in office! Even the fact that I was willing to take a selfie is a NSV in itself. I really needed that motivation, too. Have been becoming complacent recently, so thank you God!

    What's your recent NSV?

    Buying a new bra!! I went from 46 around to 40 around!! I probably could have squashed into a 38 but I'm kinda fond of breathing!!

    Ate a sandwich that I've been dreaming about for weeks (and chips!) for lunch, and I put both of them in my log! This is a big deal because I typically stop logging for the day if I eat something "bad", like if it doesn't go in MFP, it didn't happen. I enjoyed every delicious calorie, and I had a good workout this morning, so with a reasonable dinner I'll still be under my calorie goal for the day. Best of all, I don't feel even a little bit guilty! Winning!

    I'm glad to read I'm not the only one guilty of trying to act like I didn't eat it if I don't log it.

    Went shopping yesterday for a NYE dress. When I started I was in a pretty snug 20W and yesterday I walked out of the store with a 16R. :#

    They need to add "like" buttons to posts. Some of you have some awesome NSVs!

    If there was a "like" button, I'd like your post because I was just thinking the same thing today! So many great NSVs!

    I do this too, you aren't alone!
