Around our park we have this walk way that if you go around it twice it equals one mile. Two years ago I wasn't able to jog around it once, I kept having to stop to catch my breath. Today I decided to try and at least jog one whole lap straight because I hadn't tried since I lost weight, and I'm proud to say I was able to jog both times around nonstop :happy: And I did it in 10 minutes which is a big change for me since my mile times before range from 11-12 minutes. So excited, what a great way to start my day

    That's a cool NSV! It's easy to see how losing weight helps our appearance. But when we see how it helps our physical well being that's just like icing on the cake...an added bonus!

    Keep up the good work and thanks for the motivation!

    That's super to hear! Definitely a NSV! and a surprise to yourself of all your accomplishments thus far! You are on about the same track as me-I started at 218. I'm doing the dukan diet and am down about 11 (gained 3/4 pound) at this mornings weigh in but hope to get to 157 and 145 would be absolutely ideal:) Congrats to you!!

    I am still at that place where I can't jog a full mile, and I can't wait to be where you are now. Great job! I can only imagine how wonderful you feel! You are an inspiration.

    BTW this is probably a stupid question but what does NSV stand for?
