My nav today - somebody called me SKINNY! Good Grief. ME? I haven't been called skinny since I was 10. Ok, I know I'm not actually skinny but at least someone (who I haven't see in probably a year) noticed a big enough weight loss to feel moved to say it.17

@motivatedmartha That's one of the best feelings in the world: when you get things that remind you how far you've come! And yes, the rubber ducky is getting smaller. I WILL DEFLATE THAT SUCKER EVENTUALLY.5

I am pretty sure they are vanity sized, but I bought a S men's shirt tonight. I am actually happy with M but it still made me feel good.7

@VUA21 That is AWESOME!!! And it looks perfect on you!! And it's so pretty!! GREAT job!
Someday, I'm going to get up the courage to wear a dress!4 -
Had a couple yesterday (one kind of the result of the other):
- I tried on my motorbike trousers for the first time in about 2 months (we're going away for the weekend, and I'm prepping). They were definitely a bit big for me (I now need braces to stop them from falling down). However, the biggest thing about that is that when I bought them, way back in February, I had to take out the extra little bit of padding that sat on the hips, as they dug into my sides when I was straddling the bike. And they were literally the only trousers that actually fit me at all comfortably, so that was the compromise I had to make. I have short legs, and being short and wide does not give you a big choice on gear. Well, I put them back in yesterday. Because I could spread my legs easily without them pulling and being uncomfortable. In addition, there's straps to make the leg more fitted above the knees and they're as tight as it can go, but I'd like them to go a little tighter. I am aware that I'm wearing without my lining, so in the winter it'll be tighter in my trousers, but even so, there's so much more space in them that I actually feel like I'm wearing the size too big.
- After that I went to Sainsburys and while surfing the sale rack I found the same pair of jeans I'm currently wearing (and am feeling a little big on me right now), but in the size down. So considering the above, and just for interest I thought I'd try them on. I bought my current jeans in about March time and they were always a little bit baggy because it was comfortable around the waist, but I thought that was the style of them. Now they're very baggy, but I still love them.
However: not only was I able to actually put the smaller size on and button them up. They actually looked good. They were probably a little tighter than I'd like if I was to have bought them now, but mostly because I've got used to the oversized/baggy jeans fit as opposed to anything else. Very happy.10 -

Buy them now!
Jeans are crazy hard to get right and shops tend to stop selling the same style at random times etc. I wish I had bought the size down at Asda when I bought my current jeans - now they have stopped doing bootcut! gah

@Deviette Those are great NSVs!! The results of hard work, congrats!
I agree with @beerfoamy -- NEVER PASS UP GOOD FITTING JEANS. They are almost as impossible to catch as a rare unicorn! XD XD XD. My favorite pair of jeans stopped making my cut and now I'm sad. Although, I found sparkle-y jeans that I've gravitated to instead because (as my husband says)... I'm a fish, lol.6 -
A very good looking lady at work hasn't seen me in a couple of years. At the start of a meeting yesterday she introduced herself to me (we've met at least 10 times in the past). She flirted with me throughout the day (I'm married so I didn't encourage her) and this morning a co-worker of mine said this lady asked her who I was and that I was cute! My co-worker informed her it was me and she didn't believe her. 😂31

I know, but I am cheeeaaap. Although I really don't need any more bottom halves, it's tops that I never buy any of (no matter how many shopping trips I go out to buy tops on). And I'm just under half way to my goal weight so I don't want to risk dropping another size and having two pairs of jeans that don't fit properly

Darn sensemaking!
But this is why I have to be reined in by the husband. Someone has to be cost effective when I get into "BUT OMFG IT FITS IT FITS IT FITS."
I have to be told: "You're not a cat. Just because it fits doesn't mean you sits." XD XD
Well, it's still good to know the next size down fits well!

That made me smile! Great NSV I trust she's at least a little shame-faced. 🤣🤣2 -
I logged the steak fajita I had for breakfast. Normally I would try to start again tomorrow, but I’ve got to get in the habit of logging.18

Hey that is a big one! Well done. I didnt have full control until i started logging ALL the bad with the good. Its like cheating yourself - you've made a good move there.11 -
I finished radiation yesterday, placing cancer firmly in the rear view mirror. Losing all the weight probably made it more detectable (super morbid obesity definitely increased the risk) and being at a much healthier weight made the fight much easier. Keep working towards your health goals!73

I have been increasing the incline on the treadmill, that is no big deal, what shocked me is I am increasing the speed as well. I didn't think I would be able to walk that fast for an hour.... on an incline.
My heart rate has decreased as I am on the treadmill as well.27 -

@dhiammarath
Also, it's not stretchy material. I agree, the dress is very pretty, which is why I bought it even though I didn't fit into it when I bought it.
You'll get there, and totally rock pretty dresses!

I'm a top-heavy lady, so I carry most of my stubborn weight in my chest, shoulders, and upper arms. This makes sleeves a pain, and most are tight even when the rest of the shirt/dress fits perfectly. I put on one of my favorite dresses today and the sleeves actually hung where they were supposed to (over the elbow) instead of constantly shifting up because they were too tight. I'm glad I'm finally shifting the stubborn weight in a good spot.19
