    I'm impressed Neohdiver. Are you on any meds as well? I am on metformin

    Got my first lipid panel since diagnosis with diabetes. I switched to a low carb/moderate protein diet to control blood glucose. In 5 months:
    • A1c: from 7.2% to 5.7% (normal)
    • Cholesterol: from 231 mg/dl to 173 mg/dl (normal)
    • HDL from 46 mg/dl to an HDL of 55 mg/dl (normal)
    • LDL: from 151 mg/dl to an LDL of 99 mg/dl (normal)
    • Trig: from 171 mg/dl to Trig of 94 mg/dl (normal)

    Yay!

    (That particular dietary restrictions with a calorie goal, means I consume 60-80 grams of fat a day to satisfy my calorie needs. At least from an n=1 perspective, it answers any remaining questions I had about whether eating a high fat diet (with minimal carbs) is disastrous for cholesterol.)

    Outstanding!! I've lost 26 pounds since Christmas and have my blood work done in 3 weeks. I can't wait to see how different from last January. I'm eating so much better and exercising more.

    I went to the gym on Friday and strangely felt like I still had energy left to burn when I got home. So on the spur of the moment I decided to go for what I intended to be just a five-minute run out along the lane behind our house and back (it was the first run I'd have done in over 4 years). I felt so good when I got to the end of the lane that I just kept on going!! I got back to the house a full twenty minutes later - after running around the whole block without stopping and without losing my breath - it felt FAB! :)

    I've had two this week -
    1) I have lost another inch in measurement all over.
    2) I ran 3.45 miles last night non-stop, so basically just over 5K. Considering 6 weeks ago I struggled with running a couple of minute intervals I am super happy about this. :smiley:

    I got checked out at the gym when I was wearing my yoga pants... looked up to see who it was. It was hubby :blush:
    That is the best feeling of all - having your hubby check you out like that :smiley:

    I tried on a bridesmaid dress this morning that I had worn 8 months ago. I knew I had lost a lot of weight, but seeing how big it was on me almost made me cry.

    wow good job!

    I distinctly remember one day last summer that I had on a certain pair of jeans that were so tight it was uncomfortable to sit down. I'm wearing them today and I definitely should have worn a belt! I can nearly fit my arm in the waist!

    After using my roommate's/gym's scale, I finally bought one for myself this morning, so I can remain accountable for my weigh ins. Hope this still counts as an NSV! ;)

    I'm now just 1 lb away from the goal weight I set myself on MFP. I guess it's time to start checking out the maintenance section!

    Last year I bought a belt and could barely do it up; now it slides off my hips.

    Well done, everyone!

    2 nsv's here: my ankles don't swell up at the end of a day spent walking and standing any more
    My trousers which cut into my waist a month ago are comfy now (not loose yet but I'm working on it)
    I'm still keeping with it!

    I tried on a bunch of dresses that I couldn't wear for over a year and they now fit really well!

    I have to tie up my yoga pants to stop them from tripping me. Either they're stretching or I'm shrinking.
