I've struggled with my weight my whole entire life. Although the scales have been slow to move lately, I had a great moment while shopping yesterday. I knew my current shorts had gotten to the point of being too big. I could spin them around and put them on and off without unbuttoning them. I didn't realize how big until I hit the dressing room.

So last night my mom took me shopping for my birthday and bought me 3 pairs of shorts. I bought juniors size 13!!!! My old shorts were 17's. I really felt good about this as the scales have not been very kind to me.

I know this seems small, but it's a huge step for me and gives me hope in times of doubt. So I will proudly wear my shorts Friday night while celebrating my birthday :drinker: . Thanks for reading!!

BTW can anyone tell me what NSV stands for?

    Wow, that's great! It's all about the inches you have shed not the number on the scale. Wear 'em proud!

    Congrats on your NSV!! The other day I was in the hallway of my home (thank goodness....lol) and the shorts I was wearing dropped down around my ankles......I just stood there laughing uncontrollably.....My husband thought it was hilarious!! Needless to say, I don't wear them anymore and today I put on another pair that are getting really big too so I won't be wearing those anywhere but around the house.....lol :flowerforyou:

    Believe me I've been so disgusted with the numbers on the scales lately. I want to throw them out the window :explode: .
