This is what I want to achieve. Always good to know it's possible and other women have achieved it11 -

I had a haircut appointment this morning. I normally ask the hairdresser to turn me slightly so I'm not looking in the mirror while she's cutting my hair--because I don't know who the fat person in the mirror looking back at me is.
Today she had me facing the mirror, and I caught myself looking to the side, to the top, anywhere but at my reflection. Then I thought, wait--maybe it's ok now. So I dragged my eyes back to me--and there I was! The "me" in the mirror finally matches the "me" in my mind. It made me smile big. :-D
Also mini NSV: it helped that the hairdresser kept raving about how good I looked. I've lost 82, but about 25 since I saw her last.
That is absolutely just amazing. Yes ! there you ARE! I love your post and keep pushin....pretty soon you will not be able to stop staring at your bad self!!!!!!11 -

31" waist, what?!?!
The first time I took measurements on this journey, I'd already lost 50lbs but my waist was still 42". I've dropped over 10" since then!43 -

That is frigging awesome! I've lost 21 lbs and my waist is still at 42" - same as when I joined MFP. You give me hope Now all I need is more patience10 -
Got up this morning at 6 AM to run before work, even though I SO wanted to stay in bed for an extra 45 min.
Once I was up I felt great, and finally like this routine of getting up early to exercise-instead of staying up late watching tv and snacking- is something i could do for good. Adjusting my sleep schedule has been hard but it's making a big difference in my eating and exercise behavior.28 -
I ran 2 miles..without stopping in 27 minutes!!! I never would have been able to do that 36 pounds ago!!27

1) My clothes don't take up as much room in my drawers anymore. Space for more clothes
2) My bed feels bigger - I have more space now I'm thinner. Have to hunt to find my husband now as we have a king-size duvet and we get lost under it
3) I am no longer embarrassed to peg my clothes out on the line - no more "marquee" size clothes (I am gradually approaching my daughter's size now), plus I can fit more clothes on the line in one go
4) I have to check the clothing sizes to make sure that I don't mix up my clothes with my daughter's.
5) I knocked 30 minutes off my usual bike ride yesterday. Am going to see if I can keep to that time for a few days, then try to reduce it further but that depends on the traffic.
Personally I am most impressed by NSV No 4, I never thought that I'd be able to go that fast. And there are a few steep hills on my ride.26 -
I was feeling discouraged about being off my diet and gaining pounds back. But I had bought jeans a few days ago from Torrid and after not even being back on it a week they are already becoming baggy. Also I'm usually always online at work and recently I've been cleaning a lot more and not being lazy even though I'm tired.16

For my birthday yesterday, I was able to go horseback riding - something that used to be my life when I was younger but I hadn't been on a horse in 12 years. It's something I wouldn't have been able to do before losing this weight (I've lost 94 pounds so far in the past year). I cried happy tears last night thinking about it.. sometimes you don't realize how your weight holds you back and affects your life until you start to lose the weight. I'm so grateful for this new start in life.

Just finished the entire Focus T25 program!!! Even both Gamma phases! WOT?! Time does fly and I'm still wrapping my head around it! It wasn't long ago when I started and I'm just super excited 'cause I've never finished an entire program. I've read about you guys finishing but I just didn't know I would be one of those "super humans" lol It's just me and I did it!!! I swear it's starting to sink in and I wanna run and jump like a crazy person 'cause I DID finish!!!
