I have two. I ran 5km in 28 minutes this morning...not bad for an old girl! My best time yet. My size 6 jeans that I bought in the spring are very loose! I was a size 10 in January and they were tight! I haven't been this small since before I had my kid almost 16 years ago!!!!33

Yesterday when I was walking past the mirror in the hallway I noticed that my bum and thighs are bigger and more toned. I stopped and stared at it for a wile feeling a bit surprised but after about 5 minutes of looking at my own *kitten* I walked away feeling happy about the way I look. Now that's a first.. I've never been happy about my body but yesterday and today I'm very happy.
The most embarrassing part, I so badly wan't to show of my muscle definition on my thighs and bum but it just doesn't feel right lol.29 -
@heyaberg good for you! I say show it off!!!!5

Okay, so this is kind of weird and it took me a couple days to figure it out. A few nights ago my friend and I were up late watching tv and ended up falling asleep on the couch. The next day I seriously questioned how 2 adult women slept on a couch all night and I woke up and felt great AND I had enough space to sleep.... At first I assumed her couch was larger than normal... but it's not so that must mean I'M SMALLER!!! And as for not having aches and pains I have been thinking about it and notice that just in general my body hurts less. My back doesn't hurt, my knees don't hurt!!!! Guess this gives us more reasons for sleep overs!!! I was also hesitant to stay there before and I do think a big portion of it was my weight just holding me back for one reason or another!28

I also can't stop wrapping my fingers around my wrist... I can't remember the last time I could do that!19

Maximum speed reached, down that hill on my bike.
Aiming for 45mph at the weekend when the roads are quieter.
Still not sure if the half-hour slog up the hill is worth the thirty seconds back down again . . .
And that's all I have to say about that.

What is it like going that fast on a bicycle?1 -
This happened a couple weeks ago. I was getting a towel for the gym. I grabbed one, and thought that I couldn't take that one, because it wouldn't fit around my waist. Then I checked to make sure, and it fit easily

Finally, my waist circumference has gotten lower on the measuring tape. I've lost pounds, and my legs have changed shape, and I can flex my chest like bodybuilder, but that waist...
And today, I checked and yay!25 -
Dem touch the floor pivot lunges for a full min got nothing on me!
The first time I tried I couldn't even breath.... 15 -

Congratulations!!!!3 -
I'm wearing really baggy clothes because I want to wait with shopping until I lose my last 10 lbs. Another day at home I was wearing my gym leggings, only tight pair I have. I was cooking dinner and my boyfriend looked at my a.ss and said "my God! Now you look like one of those skinny hot girls!" It made me laugh so hard and I was so happy because my bum and tights are worst areas of my body!!!
Also my hip bones are emerging. And when I sleep I need pillow between my knees because it hurts when they touch! YAY!!!22 -
Today is my birthday. Old enough to retire now. Young enough to want to be at a healthy weight. I am approximately half way to my goal. I don't log my food but pay attention to what I am eating making better choices and extremely limiting things from the Snickers food group. I have started and stopped so many times and am close to the point where many times I have let it go and gained it all back then some. I am determined to keep going this time and while progress has slowed down since summer the scale is still going in the downward direction. Still biking everyday until Iowa weather and shortness of daylight make it impractical. (wellness center here i come) 2200 miles and counting since May 2016.
NSV: Not giving up anytime soon!39 -
Went down a notch on my belt and my size 18 pants are getting super loose almost to the point that I won't be able to wear them.16

I've been walking around work all day looking like a fool because I literally can't take 2 steps without my pants sliding down!!!19

Before I started to lose weight I felt anxious and/or depressed whenever I had a meal, because I was acutely aware that I was overweight and unhappy about it. It just dawned on me that eating is now anxiety free; likely because I'm on a downward trend and feel confident in my eating habits. Bottom line, I am a happier person after shedding 30 lbs. That's a huge NSV in my book! 30

So, today I went UP the hill again . . .
To see this view (better on a sunny day and with a better camera than my phone):
And cycled/cruised (maybe rushed is a better word) down the other side: today's top speed:
Beginning to think that 45mph is actually achievable.

I have to get my glasses adjusted because they are too loose on my face. I guess my head is less fat now.29

Fitting into a sexy dress and not having to worry about lumps, cause its super skin tight!21

I won some 00 jeans off someone on the town bidding site. When the 13 year old seller who had outgrown them dropped them off she told me how I "looked good for a mom" lol29

My waistband didn't fold over on itself once today. And my undies didn't snap down. Progress is made!!26

34" Levis 511s are my new size, down from 42 in May. I hope that's where it stops, this is getting quite expensive. My backside has completely disappeared, if anyone finds it can they hand it in.27

Went to bed last night after a 4 mile walk and my ankles were not swollen. First time going to bed in a couple years that my ankles were not very swollen. Also first time in a long time walking 4 miles.30

I started tucking in my shirts this week instead of letting them hang out to cover my belly. 26

Wore a new scrub shirt yesterday. I got lots of compliments on it, but all day I felt like it was just a little tight. That's discouraging--I gained back a few pounds, but thought I could still wear a size small top. Made me more conscious of what I ate yesterday. Then, last night, when I took the shirt off, I saw that the tag said "XS" and not "S"! Still glad I wore it--I need to be more aware of my choices EVERY day!29

I'm back on the wagon! I actually lost 47 pounds since the end of February, but then gained 6 or 7 back in the past 6 weeks. I'm still another 50 pounds away from my goal, but I have some NSVs to share! This week I have... A) been under my calorie goal every day;
worked out every day; C) made plans to start a heavy lifting routine on Monday; and D) got my favorite "you trained like an athlete" message when I closed out my routine at the gym on Tuesday. My son's preschool schedule was throwing off my gym schedule, but I'm committed now to just making it work. If it means doing two shorter workouts instead of one long one, so be it. Bless you all for this thread! It is just the extra dose of motivation that I needed. Oh, and I am now accepting any encouraging words, prayers, white light, or anything you might have to offer me. Let's do this! 25 -
Those pants are a size EIGHT!!! They are super stretchy, but still! The last time I was a size eight, I was 30 pounds lighter. Heavy lifting for the WIN!!!
