I moved from constantly doing ring rows as a scale for pull ups to using bands. When I started working out I couldn't even pull myself half way up with three bands! Now I use the two largest bands and I can do a few! I can't get many with the bands and I frequently kip, which I shouldn't, but doing the actual pull up motion will get me closer to being able to do strict pull ups!16

My NSV for today was doing 56 pushups without resting. It reminded me of how much progress I’ve made since late 2015 when I weighed over 330lbs. Still a work in progress though.27

I finally nailed both my elbow grip ayesha and my electric switches/leg switches today. Both moves were giving me issues b/c I was afraid of falling. But today for some reason, I was able to push through the fear and I kept practicing the moves until I nailed them. I've been trying to get these moves for about 2-3 weeks now.

my first post here.. I had 3 mini NSVs yesterday. Collegues at work commented on how fresh I am looking, the dress I was wearing was quite roomy yesterday and at 10 pm, hubby dearest said that I looked as if I had just consumed 10 energy bars (this was after all the cooking and cleaning.)
Totally made my day23 -

But this year? I'm Velma, and I think a friggin' cute one at that
You look great!!

You make a good Velma.7 -
I set myself a challenge of running 50 miles over 50 days, for some serious runner that might not be a lot but I hate running. I hate everything about it, but I knew I needed to improve to make progress at Crossfit and for general health and fitness. Yesterday I completed that 50 miles on day 50, during the whole process I knocked off 1 minute and 15 seconds off my average mile pace, took 8 minutes off my 5km time and managed to do a 9 km run ! Happy i-hate-running person here! Now for my next challenge 50 days of no chocolate and to master proper push ups like a big girl.
Well done to everyone on their NSV's this week, keep going35 -
I only ate 2 Oreo cookies last night. I used to eat a whole pack in a day or two.23

I ran into someone that I have not seen in about 18 months. She said oh you have kept the weight off, you look great. So even though I did gain back some weight I have not gained back all of the weight! This is a good motivation to push through the tough times.19

Iat my largest I was wearing my nice leather belt on the largest hole (when I wore one) Just realized that I am often wearing it with jeans and 5 holes in. That's a fair bit of inches off the waist!18

I'm sewing a dress as part of my Halloween costume. I cut out the size for my most recent measurements (taken last week) but when I tried the dress on last night before finishing it it was too big. Either my measurements have changed in just a week or the pattern is off, either way I need to recut it in the next smaller size13

Lost my "nananator" profile so I am starting over....lost my 208 day streak and ALL my exercise data BUT i like the fresh start feel of this and I bought a knit skirt and knee high boots annnnnnnnd BAM! I love em. Never in my life have I worn them but i like it!15

This might sound weird, but I can now wear my undergarments under dress pants without feeling like a stuffed sausage! Before, it felt like the fabric was pinching and making everything tighter. Now, I actually have ROOM in my pants, (which are two sizes less than my starting pant size!)10

My NSVs are tied to my SV.
1) Lost 4.6 lbs this week and that puts me in the "normal range" BMI for the first time in 27 years!!
2) I ran 4 miles yesterday with a 12.5min/mile average. Not bad for a beginner.
Can't wait to run in my first local 5k on Saturday.
I've now lost 92.4 pounds this year and
3) Yesterday I confidently bought two pair of tights that fit well, which I could never do when I was in my "plus" weight. Can't wait to find a cute skirt or dress to wear them with.28 -
I have seen a few people lately that I haven't seen since last year and they both stared at me saying wow...you look so good! I am not one that "needs" validation....but man did it feel good!!!!14

For the love of all that is holy.5 -
I took a nap today after a week of not sleeping well (one year old has had a messed up sleep schedule and insists that I be up with him ), and I realized that naps are so rare now. I used to nap EVERY day because I HAD to just to get by. Now I have a ton of energy to get by without them. I can handle so much more in life and can't wait to see how I feel after 50 more lbs!19
