Over Christmas my Aunt bought me an expensive winter jacket since I didn't have one. It didn't fit at all and I was too embarassed to tell her so I gave it to my boyfriend. I recently was heading north and needed a jacket and bf convinced me to try on the jacket again and it actually fits now! It's still a little snug when I zip it up (especially over my boobs), but I CAN ZIP IT!

My favorite jacket fits better today than it did when my mother bought it for me 15 years ago.

I just tried on some pants that fit perfectly in 2009 when I was breastfeeding and more active. I couldn't even pull them up 2 months ago - now I can and my next goal is that I can actually zip and button them!

After losing the plot for a few days, I don't give up so easily anymore, but come back to tracking and exercising again.

1. My mom gave me a bag of Starburst jelly beans a few days ago (my favorite!) and there are still some left! They never lasted this long before haha
2. Got offered a new job yesterday!
Better hours = more time with my family and more time to move!
Better benefits and pay = more money for exercise gear and race entries!

i finally decided after almost 2 years of walking ALOT to try and suck it up and go running on the treadmill (in a gym surrounded by people oh my)

and guess what?!?

I WENT 5.5 MPH FOR 20 MINUTES NON STOP!!! holy hah. Not bad for someone whose never run ever. Not like super speedy sprint or anything ... nice comfortable jog.

Beter yet i could have kept going i wasnt like dieing it felt relatively comfortable i just got hot from wearing a sweater and decided not to push it. Next time ill go beter dressed

My boyfriend noticed my gluteus Maximus is firmer now.

Someone asked me if I was a professional ballerina today. She said she was a dance teacher for years and I have "the body of a competitive dancer". Such a nice and surprising compliment

I've been eating overnight rolled oats in the AM and feeling better doing that, even adding in a few drops of vanilla sweet leaf stevia to pump it up a bit. Added blueberries into mine this morning. It's so good and only about 150-200 calories depending on your toppings. I missed oatmeal!!

The jeans i bought a few months ago have gotten loose, so wife and I went shopping today. For the first time in decades, I'm able to fit in size 38 jeans.

I signed my whole family up for a Color Walk/Run! So my kids (12, 11, and 7) now want to be my walking buddies so they can prepare for a 5K!

Also, I tried on an old pair of jeans I bought at least 11 years ago, and they fit!! It took me 50 lbs to do it, but I FINALLY went down a size!!

One pair of my swimmers has adjustable straps (bit like a bra); I actually had to tighten the straps more about an inch and a half shorter - haven't worn these swimmers in about 6 weeks - so they would stay on properly.

Then I jumped in the pool and did a 1.2 km swim - just like that! I still have 80 more pounds to loose so I am really happy with that swim. My goal is to repeat and beat it next weekend.

2 related NSVs:
I got on the treadmill at the gym today to warm up before strength training I set my light/jog pace and realized that when I started running that was my all out sprint pace.

Second, I accidentally got sidetracked by my podcast and ran for 30 minutes instead of 5 and didn’t really feel it at all.

Moments like these make me realize that I have definitely come a long way. Makes me wonder where I can end up!

My head hasn’t been in a great place the last few days but I’m so proud of myself for not having a binge and staying under calories.

TeamNemesisSteve · March 2018

I think one of the newest things that had me a little caught off guard is that I have people walking up to me that I have known most of my life who were finally asking me “so what is your secret“? Also my shoulders are starting to show new definition so I’m pretty thrilled about that.

I have finally reached the smallest of the clothing I've kept around since high school. New territory ahead!

I went to visit my folks this weekend. As much as I try, my eating is usually off the charts when I visit them because I am not in control of the food, and frankly, we just hang out and talk and eat and spend time together and eat, and eat and eat, lol. Usually during these weekends, I have not paid attention to or logged my food, and assumed the worst (i.e. that my calories are off the charts), and it would generally have put me in a funk for a week or so afterwards.

This time, I logged everything that I ate - didn't restrict what I ate up front, but I did log after the fact. And you know what? It wasn't nearly as bad as I thought. My mother is a registered dietician, and I always tend to forget that she is calorie conscious, too - so she makes good choices. After all was said and done this weekend, I was 600 total calories over my net goal, which put me AT goal for the entire week (I saved a few calories along the way!).

So no funk this time - I just went back on my schedule this morning, and I am enjoying the memories of the time I had with my family guilt free!

I brought cereal to work this morning for breakfast. I had a container of milk left over from last week. It was only a couple of days past the "sell-by" date, so I poured it on my cereal and took a bite. YUCK! The milk was no good. I had no choice by to throw out the cereal--why didn't I at least sniff the container before pouring?????? My NSV for this is that I immediately pulled out my emergency protein meal bar from my desk drawer instead of heading for the donuts and bagels in the staff lounge!

Awesome!
