Today's NSV: Bought a size large t-shirt from the Ben and Jerry's factory gift shop back in November only to realize when I got home that it was either labeled wrong or every other large t-shirt I've ever owned was sized wrong. Anyway, it didn't fit---but today it fit me beautifully.17

Today I realised that since I’ve been moving in on the leather wristband on my watch perhaps my old watch with metal links would fit again. And it does!
I also decided to try on a necklace that used to feel like it was choking me. I definitely have room to breathe now but as it’s a super dainty design I probably won’t wear it (was a gift from my employer some years ago). I’m going to keep it to see if I like it better when I’m smaller...16 -
Every few weeks, I visit my parents for the weekend. While there, I use a dressing gown that dates from my late teens, it was oversized at the time. Over the years this robe had gotten tighter and tighter, clearly too small.
But the last few visits, it didn't feel too small anymore and I can still breathe while wearing it
Next step: making it feel oversized again21 -

My NSV is that despite realizing I won't be able to weigh myself or take measurements for a couple of months, I still feel confident in the process. I'm consistent with measuring & recording food intake, and that will keep me on track 👍
This is a HUGE NSV! You totally got this! Best of luck through the healing phase! 💕6 -
This is both scale and nonscale but I'm going for it because it blew my mind.
I am the same weight today as the day I started my current job nineteen months ago, with a rollercoaster of fluctuations in between.
My overall bodyfat is down by 6%.
One of those everything changes and nothing changes moments. So motivating!25 -
I bought some pants and new underwear after a big weight loss. They are falling off now. I'm stoked.22

I realised on the bus today that I am no longer being embarrassed by the fact that no one will sit beside me except as a last resort (because I used to take up my seat and part of theirs). I used to be the last one to get the seat next to me filled and then once there was another free seat the person next to me would more often than not move to it. I understood completely but it was horrible that I couldn't fit in just my seat. Also if there was only an aisle seat for me then I would have half my bottom hanging over the edge so I didn't crowd the window sitter out too much. But then when people went to get off the bus they had to shove past my large body. Slowly things changed without me even noticing until today when I realised that there were empty seats all around me and someone came and sat down beside me. I'm fitting within my seat now and only my seat and the person didn't mind sitting beside me. It's been like that for a while but I didn't realise until today.
Another thing that happened to me was that I finally reached the halfway point and my ticker is bang on half way! I was so excited to see that!

I did a workout today!!!
I haven't been able to do any for a long time. Besides being fat I also have a chronic illness and I'm usually too sick to fit any workouts into my energy plan.
Tonight however I was feeling like it and had enough energy sooo I did a mini workout and it didn't drain me as much as I was afraid of which means I'll be able to do more of them in the future 🙌😍
I'm super happy!29 -

Looks like they even are a bit big for you! Is it a size 2 in US or UK sizes?4 -
My muscle definition is becoming visible in my legs again. Getting my runner's legs back. Plus, my shoulders are becoming more square again thanks to some presses and push ups.20
-
I can name a few!!
I realized simple everyday tasks are becoming easier such as carrying the groceries upstairs!
Pants that used to fit suddenly are to big, even though the scale has stayed the same (this slightly annoys me though haha)!
At work I can bend, squat and move with ease.
People at work are commenting on my appearance, saying I am looking smaller
I can lift heavier weights and do longer more intense workouts!
I started this journey last year and my weight loss has been very slow. I have lost about 35 lbs over the year. That is because I LOVE food lol and I love weight lifting. My body composition is changing but the scale is stalled. I am hoping once my hormone fluctuations settle down this month I will see that scale dip again.
I still have 30 lbs to go!28 -
@bstanford510 Awesome! So Impressed with that loss!!!
@NightHawk584 Amazing in one year! Good for you!5 -
I went to a very smart boutique today, where a lot of the dresses are one size because they don't make a huge number of them. I fit into everything I tried on, meaning it's pretty safe to assume I'm average sized right now.27
-
Today, looking in the mirror I started to see torso muscles I didn't even know I had. Additionally, the belt that had gotten very small is now way too large.
I am on the right path and very happy for it. A few more pounds and I going to buy some "mid point" pants as my current pairs are really not working anymore.13 -
Did my fastest 5k tonight in a treadmill workout!23

I feel like a moron posting this but on the leg press machine I noticed I had a dark smudge on my calf. I figured it was from the stair treadmill or different equipment. I tried to rub it away unsuccessfully and it turned out to be a calf muscle shadow!36

Nothing moronic about that - I've had similar.7 -

Congratulations! I've donated everything BUT what I bought last summer, I don't plan on fitting in it again but because it's newer I feel like I didn't get enough wear out of them. Stupid because they're 2 sizes too big!13
