I did five sets of three pull-ups, with 25 lbs added!27

I did the big closet clean out on Friday. Literally tried on everything-one by one-and had to eliminate tons of things. Mostly pants since my hips have gone from 44” to 37”. I’m still losing, so for the rest of the summer I’m wearing crop leggings and inexpensive knit warmup crops. (I’m retired) My husband gave me some boxes yesterday, so I’ll be packing them up for charity. It’s nice to have everything organized and have it all fit! For now anyway. lol22

Bought a pair of 35 waist jeans after wearing 38 waist jeans for years. No heroic measures needed to get into those jeans.
Woot!21 -
I haven't had one of these in a while. The going-away party I went to on Saturday was rainbow unicorn themed. I wore my 14 year-old's JUNIORS size medium t-shirt. A couple of people at the party did not recognize me until I spoke.33

I no longer need my CPAP machine, I haven't used it in 3 weeks now.
Sleep apnea has completely dissapeared
I also bought "skinny jeans" at size 36 that fits me very comfortably.43 -
Went into a boutique shop to get a dress for a wedding since nothing I have fits me anymore. The shop owner was very helpful in pulling out different styles he thought would look good on me. I didn’t realize until I went to try them on that he had grabbed me smalls.....and they fit!!! It just about knocked my socks off! Haven’t worn a small since high school. May be vanity sizes but I don’t care, I bought a beautiful dress and felt absolutely amazing at the wedding for the first time in a long time.
This is my greatest NSV yet!36 -

Sleep apnea has completely dissapeared
I had my hopes up and got tested, but it only went from severe to moderate. My pressure setting is lower, but I still need the stupid thing. I guess the better diagnosis is an NSV as the less severe it is, the less likely it is I will have any of the problems that are more likely when you have apnea.18 -
First time I've ever had the confidence to wear a vest top. About to walk out the front door now...

Every day for you, though? Right? Still, every day a NSV! Good for you!!!!!!3 -
Just caught a reflection of my legs and thought they belonged to someone else... I have thin-ish (but still muscular) legs! As the lifetime owner of some serious thunder thighs this is a big NSV for me 30

I have always thought that "vanity sizing" was much more prevalent in bigger department stores and that "boutiques" can be depressingly the opposite!15 -

That's awesome! And I'm a bit envious. Seems like I can do anything else in the gym with reasonable proficiency, but pull-ups are my kryptonite.7 -

I want to try a 45 lb plate, just to see if I can do one!6 -
I finally did a push-up! One real, no incline, no knees, all the way down and back up push-up. Took a while and had to refocus more than once on the way up, but I finally did it!36

With my daughter home from college for the weekend and my son home from RI (I'm in CT), we had a birthday party/picnic celebration. Yes, I went over in calories both Saturday and Sunday. My NSV is that today, I'm back on track. Didn't give up. Just have to toss that left over cake!23

I hadn't really realized I have dragonpants in my closet until this morning. I tried them on, zipped them up, and wore them. They're supposed to be the same shape and size as my other XL pants, but somehow they feel two sizes smaller and the fabric is stiff and doesn't stretch properly. After breakfast, I decided I can't survive the day wearing these jaws of hell, and changed into my new size L jeans that fit way better. But still, I wore the dragonpants for a good 30 minutes. Maybe some day I'm small enough so I can comfortably wear them to work.29

I haven't been able to get up EVERY morning at 5:30am to work out, but a few times a week has been doable. This morning my alarm went off, and every part of me wanted to snooze for another hour. Yet I found myself getting out of bed, putting on my workout gear, and turning on my DVD. My alarm clock app that annoys me into waking up has proven to be helpful, lol.
Also, this weekend I was able to hop and shimmy myself into size 4 skinny jeans, and button them. They were still a little small, but I'm hoping they might fit this fall. It's too bad though, they were really cute, but I wasn't ready to buy them. They'll probably be gone by then. But there will be others. I need to probably stop shopping for new clothes, but some of my current outfits are beginning to get frumpy.
I was also able to tame a dragon dress I couldn't wear a while ago. Sadly some other ones I bought and were waiting "until I lose a little bit" are now ill fitting. Boo.16 -

NICE! Remember, no plan survives first contact with the enemy. You know them dragonpants now. You won the skirmish. All that's left is the final battle of taming them dragonpants. GO YOU!!8 -

They might still be there! If I love something like that, I'll buy it and hang it on my closet as motivation. I plan on doing that once the current dragonpants are well tamed and too big.
DRAGON DRESS. YESSSS. Sucks they didn't fit the same, but it's good to know things are marching in the right direction!!3 -

Well done, Crafty! Great determination! Getting up early to work out will get easier.

Felt upset with someone, went to bed early instead of binging.
Wrote about craving food, instead of giving into craving. Came up with a solution.
and the solution was: loving yourself! Way to go! and congrats on the coat fitting.... surely more such surprises will be coming your way!3 -
people sitting next to me on the bus - I suppose its a victory of sorts - depends on the person11
