Desperately needed jeans that fit and did not want to pay Lane Bryant prices. Most department stores where I live only go up to size 24 and I was a tight size 28 at my heaviest. Today, I decided to check out Kohl, just to see if they had jeans that would fit. I hesitantly grabbed a pair (size 24) and tried them on. They FIT! I honestly jumped up and down in the dressing room for a second. It feels great to be able to shop at department stores for clothes! I also bought a much needed bra that was 2 band sizes smaller!52

Met my goal of running 3 miles in 30 minutes tonight, a full week before my goal date. I wasn't even trying all that hard - I was working for it, obviously, but nowhere near as hard as I expected to need to.19

I fit into jeans I haven't worn in years! They are still a little snug but it's better than having to pull them up everytime I breathe, even with a belt.17

I woke up this morning and didn't feel like going for my run. I thought about how bad it could really be if I skipped it, and didn't get up and get dressed to go until my husband said "I know you don't feel like going, but you always feel better when you do." So I took those first hard steps out the front door. I'm so glad I did because not only do I feel better now, but I ran the first mile of my run in 7:39!! And then kept up the next three at a 9:20 pace! I can't believe it really, I started running two years ago and have never thought I would do better than the middle of the pack. Not to mention that I think the fastest mile I ever ran in gym class was about 11:45.29

I ran a 10k this am: finished in 53:12 & took 3rd in my new age group (50-54). Mighty pleased29

After reading through this thread for months (I am currently on page 493) and getting a LOT of inspiration by all of those who have the courage to post, I am finally ready (and happy!) to report my own Non-Scale and Scale Victories. Today I logged for 255 days in a row (and was logging my food for most of those days with the exception of vacation trip to Europe). Hard work during those 255 days (food and exercise) yielded the amazing 60 lb loss (as of today).
I can't be happier with the MFP program, ability and ease of tracking CICO, and the improvements in my looks and fitness levels! I am being inspired by the community here and feel stronger than ever that I do that, that my outside will finally match how I feel inside. Thank you everyone for sharing your stories, struggles and victories, those postings help a lot of people like me!40 -
I rode 6 miles on my stationary bike last night without trying. I have been riding thirty minutes a day for only a week, last Saturday (not yesterday) was my first day and I think I rode maybe barely four miles.
I'm getting hot foot though on my rides, even though they are short, so I'm thinking of getting bike shoes. That's a sentence I never thought I would type and an NSV in itself. Since I only ride indoors for the foreseeable future a pair should last me forever.18 -
6 months ago I was a size 16 in pants, yesterday I tried on 2 pairs of my size 9's that I used to wear before my last 2 pregnancies and they FIT!!!32

I'm actually enjoying shopping for clothes. Went from size 40 waist to 38 to 36, then ordered Gap jeans and pants on sale online size 35. Whoops too big. Exchanged for size 34. And these seem kinda roomy. Might look into "skinny" or "slim" fits next time I drop a size. Mind blown.22

Fit into the jeans I had set aside for a mini goal. I wanted them to fit and be comfortable by the end of Oct. I'm a month early!27

Ran a 5k race this morning (first nsv). Came second in my age category (second nsv).32

I GOT HIT ON! By a gorgeous man, too. I havent experience this in years. A temp construction worker went out and asked if I wanted a coffee (cream, no sugar ) and brought it back. Didnt notice the inscription until after he left. Made my day. Now, I'm married and all, but doesnt mean I wasnt extremely flattered.49 -
Daft things this week, really. But I've always bought the same brand of sports bra (decreasing sizes) & have always wanted to buy the matching underwear. Sadly they only went up to a UK size 16 which was totally beyond me. Currently rocking them!
Finally told my Mam who lives in the other end of the country (so we don't see eachother often enough ) what I was doing. Took a photo for her of me in a dress I bought for a school dance aged 16. Don't know why I kept it but it was really satisfying to put it on! It's also a size 16 & *gulp* 18 years old(From Etam haha..does that even exist anymore fellow UKers?!). She was so supportive & happy... That made me happy!34 -
Dumped the rest of the gelato in the sink this morning, knowing if it stayed in the freezer I would succumb....34

I bought a new pair of jeans this weekend and found that I was in a size 24W - which I haven't worn since college at least 14 years ago. When I started MFP back in January, I was wearing a 30W, so I was thrilled! Now lets see if I can get myself into 22's before the new year.......47

Met up with friends who we see on a fairly regular basis this weekend and was told I look skinny. (For reference, I'm 5' 6.5" and 154 pounds.) It made my day, and I'm still 14 pounds away from my goal weight. (And this is related to the scale, but my BMI has dropped into the normal range.)28

A few NSVs for me -
1. My DH started using MFP on his own without my pushing him or reminding him. Omg, I am so tremendously excited to see him progress on his journey to better health and so proud of him for doing it the right way.
2. Completed my first 50k - pulled a muscle in my knee around mile 2, but I kept going for 29 more miles. Finished in 8 hours and 48 minutes.
3. My pup joined me for his first 5k! All the training paid off - he was well behaved and didn't succumb to distractions on the trail. We averaged less than 10 min/mile once we pulled away from the crowd at the starting line.
4. I've been pretty good with managing maintenance since I hit my target weight late last year but kinda bummed that I haven't seen any real progress for recomp - my clothes fit the same and measurements are the same, though I average 3 lbs more than I did when I started maintenance. My DH mentioned that he noticed a difference. Went and took a picture of my abs then did a side by side comparison - sure enough he was right! Subtle, but yeah. I am starting to see my abs tighten up a little.

did a double take coming out of gym this morning. I had my hair cut Saturday and while walking past gym mirror I had to look again as I didn't think it was me! only slightly shorter hair but it frames my face differently, and makes the weightloss in my face more noticeable.
odd but good!25 -

She obviously knows a good look when she sees one!9
