I think this might count for a NSV... Today is my nephew's 9th birthday, and instead of eating three cupcakes like I did at his brother's birthday party back in March, I just ate one cupcake...his mom tried to get me to take more home with me, but honestly, that one cupcake was all I wanted, no more, no less. Not bad for the girl who use to go "One? How about three?" when it came to cupcakes.23

I was in a funk for a few weeks due to feeling sick and many things in my life felt like they were just slipping into an uncontrollable feeling of defeat. House cleaning, work stress from being out, wanting to move to a better house/city, feeling isolated in this small town away from my family and friends. The only thing I had kept up with was MFP, logging and weighing in.
I'm not sure what was different this time because all of those things have been there at some level for a while and I have looked many times for a new place. Maybe because they all felt like they were catching up with me at once after being sick for so long, but last week I looked for a place, found one that looked awesome and made an appointment to see it. That weekend, last weekend, I got on MFP and made more friends, viewed the house I found, applied for it and cleaned my house. This week I have had so much energy and feel great! My work has improved and gone back to what it was before the funk, I am signing my lease tomorrow and I have revamped my obsession with MFP lol
I also feel more committed to my goals. I've lost 42 pounds so far this year and today only lost .2 for the week, but I'm not discouraged at all. (Disappointed yes, lol but not discouraged.) It's really sinking in that I am DOING this. I'm not stopping. If I can keep this up through all that feeling of defeat, I know I'm committed and that is a belief about fitness that I have never had until now

Okay, I've only been doing this 12 days, so my NSVs are very, very small...but I see a change in my stomach, face, and feet (the latter were one of the things that got me off my fanny: I'd never had chubby feet until about 2 months ago...now they're back to what I'm used to.)
I normally wouldn't post such small NSVs, but I really wanted to ask, since the topic of MFP lingo came up, what "brownshirt" means. I Googled NSV and Dunlap's Disease some time ago, and figured out *kitten*, but I can't get "brownshirt".
I have no idea what "brownshirt" means here either. The only context i knew it is was historical Germany.3 -
Pants I bought in July no longer fit me. I wore them to work today and they were so loose.13

It is also a reference to the TV show Firefly.7 -
Today is my 600th day in a row of logging.45

Mine is pant size. I realized the size 20 jeans are getting too loose and baggy so I've pulled out a few older pairs. I fit into a size 18 jeans and my favorite pair from years ago, size 16. Different brands and cut so who knows what my real size is--I just want to stave off the trauma of shopping for clothes a bit longer so I'll take this little victory!15

I purchased a pair of jeans that have a 3 at the beginning of the waist size! I haven't worn that size since 1976.
And, they fit.33 -

I used to keep to myself all the time but I wanna give a MASSIVE shout out to Chris and Dave, who love this section too they've helped me be more open about my journey and every single day they are a huge motivation for me.

That's so funny, I did the same thing on the same day so that I could run without shin pain when doing c25k and stop dropping it the second week! I over-pronate.7 -
A month ago when I started giving plasma at 203 lbs, it took 45 minutes to collect it. Now, I am doing Jillian michaels 30 day shred and eating clean. At 198 lbs, last time it only took 29 minutes to collect it.20

I bought a pair of workout leggings when I started 2 months ago. They are XXL size and were way too tight. I had hidden them away and just this morning decided to try them again. I am down 26.7 lbs now and they slid right on with no issue. I was so happy I went out and bough two more leggings but this time in XL size. I tried those on at home thinking they'd be way too tight and they fine great too.21

I used to wear men's swim shorts as the women's wouldn't accommodate my belly. I'm back in my women's swim shorts now-shorter and cuter. My eldest (25) is here for a few days. So is a buddy of his from High school.
The buddy forgot a swim suit. My old swim shorts-waist 36 are fitting him well.25 -

Went for a real bike ride today for the first time since last September. Back then it was the catalyst to finally get to a doc and exam the recurring lower back pain I was suffering then. After intense physio, finding MFP and changing the way I live and eat I finally got back on my bike. It was wonderful. 90 minutes - gonna feel it tomorrow but it was worth it!23

Today is my 100th day of logging.

For me, it's the realization that I've been addicted to the fast rush of energy carbs gives me and that they no longer have the hold they had over me! (How is it that I've allowed food to control me for so long?) At any rate, I'm over sugar--even fake sugar--and I feel so powerful. No more cravings, no more crashes! (No more carb naps... seriously, it was that bad.) Take THAT sugar! I've beaten my nemesis!25

The outline of my ankle bones are now visible. Usually, that area is swollen and I have to feel around for the indentation!23

I am wearing a dress today that was very tight on me last year, even with the strongest Spanx I could find. Today, it fits perfectly and no Spanx required. Also, I tried on a pair of jeans I bought earlier this summer and they were at least 2" too big in the waist

81 pounds downs in 2.5 years. About 10 to go. Every day feels amazing. Like I've reinvented myself. I want to work out. I want to eat healthy. Life is too short to spend it in front of the TV or the.computer.29

Over the past two and a half weeks I haven't been tracking as i thought I would give myself a break. It was my wedding/honeymoon after all!
Now I'm back to tracking. I actually surpassed my goal for the wedding by almost 10 pounds, so to put on 4 pounds over my past 18 day indulgence is not bad at all!
Back to the gym tomorrow for spin class to dive head first back into my gym routine!

I made those negative thoughts be quiet inside my head and I headed over there and they had it in 15! I just couldn't believe such beautiful dress would be available in a 15.
