Went to MD for annual exam and I explained to her I wanted to lose more weight but she said not to focus on scale as she could see I had much more muscle from all the exercise......She also changed diagnosis in chart from Obese to Overweight....not sure if I will ever fit in a standard BMI chart with all the weights I do with crossfit but I am so happy about my body changes30

I only slept for 3.5 hours last night (1 month old baby) and I’m home alone with the baby and a 3 year old all day. I have every good excuse to sit the kid in front of PAW Patrol for the morning, but instead I bundled baby into my carrier, put a coat and helmet on the 3 year old, and we played in the driveway with his balance bike, chasing each other’s shadows! It’s not tons of steps, but it’s more than I would get sitting on the couch!63

We started a new family tradition today. We’re visiting our adult daughter, and she and her husband did a 5K with us this morning. She said we should try to find one every time we visit. It was a fun and upbeat event and we had a great time!47

Was told tonight I was an inspiration. Had to explain that I did a hell of a lot more than just "not eat potato chips" but had my wife back me up on it.29

This morning I woke up overweight. Used to be obese for such a long time I almost dropped a tear.67

After a year of exercising my knees have finally become stable enough for me to do proper lunges without worrying that my wobbly knees are an injury time bomb. I also noticed that I can now easily do all my push ups on my toes!24

Doing 3 unassisted chin-ups with a 20 second hang time. I'm 64, and I'm just 6 months post shoulder surgery! I shouldn't be prideful, but I can't help it. I am so proud of my self. I am so determined to be the best me I know how to be!43

My old jeans fit without leggings! Now I will be able to wear them in warm weather too!17

Had totally planned to get fast food last night and didn't. I wasn't really hungry and didn't want that many calories, huge NSV that I didn't just make the excuse and stop!25

You know you've really lost weight when your leggings are big on you. They're already stretchy so I thought I won't have to worry about sizing down for a while. All my large size fitness leggings are big. I need new ones. Also my regular jeans leggings are all big. I'm hesitant to buy any pants until June.I know by then I would've lost at least 2 inches from my hips. I also prefer to buy during specials so that I can have different styles and color. It's still a good problem to have rather than gaining weight.
Also, I've decide to wear more skirt for the spring to prolong the need to buy new pants. I went shopping in my closet and found 3 brand new pencil skirts with tags. I bought them 4 years ago convincing myself at the time it fitted me. It's true what they say, when you are big you buy clothes that too small and don't realize it.14 -

I think that's amazing! I have never done one, it's one of my goals right now, and you are definitely an inspiration!6 -

Dawn, I'm 63. And I can sometimes do one chin-up. Be proud! That is an awesome accomplishment!

This happened to me too, first with the leggings I was wearing as pants while I was at my heaviest and no real pants fit me, and more recently with the leggings I wear around the house/to do living room aerobics. And both times it crept up on my just as you seem to be describing. I guess because of the stretch they fit fine, they fit fine, they fit fine, and then one day you pull them on and there's fabric gathering all over the place and they've practically become sweatpants. A strange phenomenon, isn't it?13 -
I recently had a team audit with five other coworkers from other areas of the state. I used to be the largest person at these audits (even the men!). I was the smallest person at the recent audit and it felt amazing.38

312lb deadlift 6reps 2sets (I'm about 6' 185lbs)
Not a new pr, but the first time I've gotten back to this level since screwing up my knee...18 -
Yesterday I went to put on any one of my FIVE prettier coats for the first time in a few months. Tend to wear a hiking coat for doggie walks/hikes etc when it's cold & just sling on woolen cardies if I'll be predominantly indoors in civilization. It was too cold & rainy for no coat, but sadly, not a single one looked okay on me. They range from a UK size 22-18.
Popped into town & miraculously found one I liked in the first shop. I went to grab a 16, but my lovely hubs persuaded me to try on a 14. Thought there was noooo way it was going to fit me as it's long & I have a big backside/wide hips. In the event, it's like a glove...I was genuinely lost for words.
Sometimes these NSV's just hit you like a stack of bricks!47 -
Out walking last night, ran into a neighbor who wanted to know what I had done to lose weight. I turned her on to MFP. So three NSVs - one, old me wouldn't have been walking in the first place, two, compliment from the neighbor, and three, got to help someone else discover MFP!36

I realised the other day that I fit into all of the clothes I have.....
Apart from the pile that's too big and waiting to go to the charity shop. As I still have a little way to go (still undecided) I've bought a pair of size 14 jeans as inspiration to keep going (that, actually, I can do up right now - as long as I don't want to breathe or move ).
Also today, in a related funny (getting the most out of your wardrobe) moment, I realised I was wearing:
Size 20 coat (because I'm not buying a new winter coat until Autumn, and it's handy for layering up)
Size 18 jeans (have to be held up by a belt)
Size 16 fleece
Size 14 top
I really need to go shopping
