What's Your Most Recent NSV

Finally reached my high school weight again (1st time was before holidays)30 years later after losing the holiday poundage this past month. Hallelujah, praise the Lord!!! Sorry sort of related to scale but excluding numbers.

Today I wore some pants that did not fit 3 weeks ago.

Went thrift shopping today. Saw a pair of shorts I thought would be fun, and they were half off. But there's no way they would fit.

Vanity sizing and all, I decided to at least try 'em on.

Boom!

When I use my tape measure, I'm actually a little smaller than last time I checked, but still two inches larger than the number in these shorts. Still... feels kind of fun to think I'm that small. I've found some other pants there that fit at size S. I can hardly believe it, because I'm truly a medium-sized guy for the most part. I'm just not as wide as the typical person - seems "only" 30% of American adults aren't overweight or obese.

30 min straight on the stair mill this morning.

got off track yesterday, ate everything in sight but good thing is it is just a 1 day thing, didnt give up, I use to would have just thrown in the towel.

Dug through my closet and did a little fashion show for myself.

Tights I bought that wouldn't even go over my thighs when I bought them now fit.

A blouse I bought that fit normally or a little tight is now hilariously huge.

A shirt I bought when I was 18 (and never had the guts to wear because it's very form fitting) now almost fits. I mean, it fits, but it's still a touch too tight to really look good. Still, it goes on, which it hasn't in years.

Every single dress I own is huge. I think I can take the one in to be tailored, but the rest are a lost cause.

A sweater I used to love fits again.

I can now wear the My Little Pony shirt I got as a joke gift that I actually unironically love but was way too small before.

Progress is being made. Even if it doesn't feel that way always.

Also a NSV - for watching test matches this year, I stuck to tea & cress sandwiches!

I wore my belt for the first time in over a year (physically couldn’t for a LONG time after my hysterectomy, then my pants were snug enough to not need it, eventually I didn’t have any jeans that actually fit... I have practically lived in workout gear or leggings and dresses)... I buckled it on the last notch - as in, I will have to punch more holes as I lose more weight!

I’m happy and relieved to say, this girl is officially 5 years CANCER FREE!!! It’s hard for me to even believe that i have endured and continue to endure this in my life and a lot of people do not know this about me but dealing with this has been one of the hardest things iv ever had to go through and has effected me in so many ways i didn’t even realize until now, looking back! I continue to deal with this everyday and probably will the rest of my life regardless and it has taken me a long time to not be down on myself about it. I’m not big into new year resolutions but i think starting this year it’s a good time to not look at myself as weak or unlucky! But instead look at myself as a badass *kitten* that kicked cancers *kitten*! Going through this has humbled me so much to people and life!! Don’t have to have cancer to be dealing with something causing you pain in your life! Whether ur dealing with cancer, another illness, divorce, a loss, depression, addiction or just LIFE. Know that u are not weak and ur not alone! ♥️🙏🏼😭🙌🏼 #NSV

Husband finally decided to workout with me—had our first lifting session in our garage lifting area he made for me last night. Definitely need to find some exercise work around for his shoulder issues but excited to actually work out together!
