I just had to share my accomplishment yesterday! I went out and in getting ready discovered that I fit into not just my super fat jeans, but 2 more pairs!! Yay for fitting into old favorites! Anyone else having victories that have nothing to do with the numbers on the scale?

@akmomof7 That's awesome!!! Congratulations! I haven't noticed any non-scale victories just yet, but I just restarted last week. So hopefully soon I will be celebrating with you!1

I love that feeling @akmomof7! I recently bought a bunch of clothes online and I wasn't sure they would fit because I was guessing on sizes. I was surprised that everything I bought either fit or was too big on me. I thought the size 10 jeans were going to be tight but they were actually kind of loose. I could maybe have got away with sizes 8s. Oh well, they were very cheap old navy jeans that I got on sale.9

I've been logging for a month now. Yesterday at dinner my husband told me I had a skinny face!9

I was told Saturday that if I lost any more weight, there wouldn't be anything left.
Hardly, I'm still 50lbs over weight but I appreciate my efforts being noticed.

Awesome ladies! My win is more surrounding stamina at the gym, getting closer to ( still a ways to go...) my abilities pre pregnancy!6

While I'm not new to working out, I am about 1 year behind on working out at all. Today marks day 3 of pushing myself mentally to complete a work out. Today I did one more real push-up than yesterday.9

Instead of eating my emotions, I workout hard. It's so nice having self control!! Been a while.9

My nsv was getting a gym membership. If i use it 8x a month the membership price is credited to my husbands pay check so its the motivation i need to start getting active5

My non-scale victory was yesterday, first we missed our morning walk to the thunderstorms and it was too hot by the time storms were over. Then my little man was cranky, wouldn't nap until late in the afternoon(only being held of course) and needed constant attention all day long so my activity level was at an all-time low. usually I would've used it as an excuse to slack off for the rest of the day but as soon as dad got home I handed off baby got a good workout in, even though it kicked my butt and I had to follow the modifier, I stuck it out through the whole workout.9

I just had my baby in May. I finally fit into my clothes from last summer! I'm hoping I'll need a new wardrobe for next summer6

All you mamas with babies are doing great! I had to wait for my babies to reach nine (they're ten now) to really get motivated to take care of myself.2

I was at my heaviest when I got pregnant, so when I lost the baby weight I decided why stop there, I should keep going3

I finally have an NSV! I was able to still run a half hour straight! May not be big for some, but I haven't done cardio in so long.2
