I finally went and bought a new bra yesterday after losing 22lbs (Yay!). Once I put it on with my clothes though it became obvious how ill fitting they are. I honestly had no idea I bad I looked What I thought was just slightly oversized is a baggy disaster. I'm happy clothes are too big but I'll have to find a cheap way to replace a few things in my wardrobe
Thrift stores, consignment shops or sale bargains at cheaper clothing stores...6 -
I just read 1000+ of these NSV (September to now) You are all so amazing! Congratulations everyone

Over heard my doctor after my appointment voice-recording my visit say "she is a healthy, very active lady." Simple words really, no fanfare or cheerleading given but very powerful to someone who has lost 65 lbs.
Wanted to go back in there to give him a big hug & kiss. It's taken me years to get here and feel proud of my body. Even though it wasn't said to me, I'll take it.52 -
I took a Buti yoga class yesterday. The instructor wanted me up front so I could see her since I was new. The class was great and something I couldn't have done confidently before.20

Lifting higher weights and seeing more muscle definition this week!15

Powering through the 5k I just ran. I started out trying to see how far I'd get. I have a sore throat, and my legs were a bit stiff at the start. I figured I'd stop at a mile...then I was shooting for the halfway point. I kept setting mini distance goals, and eventually got it done. 5ks in general aren't that big a deal for me, I usually do it three times a week. Completing this one felt great, though, because I didn't think I'd get it done.24

I am making a mass amount of cookies for a community event. Last night I finished 175of them, and did not swipe any dough, or eat even one cookie. Hopefully I can keep up until I'm done baking.32

Non Scale Victory. Something other than the number on the scale that makes you feel good about your weight loss.-1 -
Went to Fatz last night for my mil's bday. I ate 0 of the poppy seed rolls with butter. And only 1/2 of my wrap to finish the day off under my calorie goal. Definitely a big deal since I can usually finish at least 6 (100 cal a piece) all on my own.20

I see:
Non scale victory
National Socialist Vanguard (neo-Nazi group in Oregon)
A 12.7mm caliber Russian gun
Nullsoft streaming video
Non-surgical vasectomy
Neighbourhoods for a sustainable Vancouver
No real harm in asking here.18 -

I did Google NSV a while back and figured it out (although the Vancouver group looks interesting ), but I got stuck on *kitten* and had to ask for help! Thanks to those who shared that it's the auto-edit for questionable language - as in, "got my fat *kitten* off the couch and started moving!"
And speaking of moving - my NSV - because I've been really trying with logging and exercise, I was able to work the past 4 weekends standing at the cash register at the Christmas tree farm without my knees giving out! I was hobbling a bit after the first couple days, but by this past weekend I was doing great!19 -

NSV's - Non-Scale Victories - are what keep you going when you have been doing all the right things and the scale is messing with your head.
You will learn to love having them - even more than the numbers on the scale, changing.
Good luck!5 -
I can almost see my collarbones. They don't jut out like I hope they will when I'm smaller, but I can feel them and see their outline in the right lighting.17

I don't base ALL of my goals or mindset on the BMI scale but I really enjoy comparing it. Can't wait for the day I'm all in the green!
(I hope this is still accepted as a NSV even though it does have to do with weight....even if it's not accepted, it's a victory for me!)30 -
