What's Your Most Recent NSV

My exercise routine, which is twice as long as when I started a month ago, is getting too easy.

I have a pair of shorts and a couple skirts that haven't fit me in 12 (!) years, but I kept them in hopes I could eventually wear them again. I made a mini-goal to be able to wear them by June of this year, so on a whim I tried them on this morning to check my progress. One of them actually fit comfortably, and the other two will button if I lose only about another 1/2 inch off my waist. I will definitely be wearing them this summer! For the longest time, I thought that would never happen.

tried on a winter jacket this morning (getting chilly now) and was surprised that my once very tight sleeves in the upper arm area are pleasantly loose and comfortable to wear...looking forward to the cold for this very reason lol.

Did Target just install new mirrors that make you thinner than you really are? I went in to try on some clothes the other day and didn't have that dreadful, "Ugh, I'm so fat." internal dialogue I usually have with myself when I go into the dressing room. Thought maybe they just upped their marketing tactics with new mirrors that make you look thinner than you really are. Did they?

This morning I graduated c210k!!! Started in January and finally completed! So freaking happy as my goal was to finish before my holiday next week

Still slow but just need to improve my time now. With healthy eating (mostly from end of Feb) till now, running and walking, I've scorched 10lbs

For some reason my post above didn't include everything.

Not only is my face so much smaller and my clothes fit better but guys, I've lost my love handles!!!! I kid you not! For the first time since I can remember, my obliques are slim and my waist so small. I still have a lower belly pooch but it is the smallest it's been in years. Running seems to have really helped in this area. I keep running my hands over my waist and sides as it is so small slim and not a lump or bump in sight.

Thanks so much to all on this forum for your continued support as I am now 22lbs from my goal weight of 140lbs which is much better than 52lbs when I first started. Funny last year I got down to 155lbs but was not as fit or toned as I am now. Just goes to show everyday is a work in progress.

Looking forward to scorching more fat!

I put on a pair of jeans this morning that I haven't wore in 3+ years! I couldn't get them up past my thighs in January. They actually buttoned fairly easily too

Oh and yesterday a coworker commented on how much weight I have lost and how skinny I am looking. She is a sweet lady that knows I am trying to lose weight, so not sure just how noticeable the weightless is but it made me feel good.

I bought a new, low size jean last night - men's 36 (down from 46). What's weird for me - I pick up the pants and they just look to small ... like I can't fit in those, and put them on and they fit - but they just look weird to me. And different from 38's to 36's ... there's less belt loops! Or maybe it's switching from Wrangler back to Levi's (Levi's were hard to find >44).

I am in a size 12 again for the first time since 1993. While this might not be too huge of a NSV its amazing for me, as I have a mental block (not sure why still trying to figure that out) about the size 14, every time in the past when I got to a 14, I started to self sabotage, and this time wasn't any different, but I was determined to persevere and I did. Its a huge accomplishment for me to make it by that size 14 I actually cried and it was all by accident, just happened to notice my pants sagging in the mirror at work and thought for S&G I would try on my 12s not only did the 12s fit (pants) but I tried on my 12 jeans and they fit as well so I am solidly in a 12. No wonder the 14s looked like I had a load in them. Now on to 10s.

Last night thr hubs was coming home from a meeting and stopped by the Gas Station for a drink. Called to ask if I wanted a diet coke. Told him no, but that I'd love a bottled water.

Also, went out to Applebee's last night for dinner before his meeting. I chose a steak and green beans instead of the very fattening choices i used to make. And drank a water with dinner instead of diet coke.

Did much better this week about getting my water in.

I have lost an entire shoe size!

I just graduated c25k last night, and am thinking about moving on to 5k to 10k! I haven't decided yet, because my pace for the 5k is pretty slow (definitely not the 30 minutes the app pushes for), so I can't decide if I should work on pace first, or keep increasing my distance. But congratulations on finishing the program!! That's so awesome!!

The back fat fold under my ribs is gone!!

Under 210 today! The countdown to onderland really starts 10...9...
