What's Your Most Recent NSV

Well, yesterday I didn't do my workout as planned. But instead I went on a Hash that had some pretty intense hills and was over 3.5 mi (about 6k). I felt like it was okay to skip my workout.

Also, I have been adding shredded carrots to different things - tacos, wraps, oatmeal. I know the oatmeal one is weird but I don't taste the carrots and I figure it gives me a little extra fiber and nutrition. Now if only I could figure out how to hide all the vegetables...

What an NSV I have!

Yesterday my hubby and I were in a crowded store, filled with all kinds of people, including a lot of college kids. As we were getting ready to leave, I was behind my husband and he was looking for me. He walked out the door to look for me (he said he couldn't find me in the store and thought I went outside), then came back and looked at me with wonder and absolute amazement and hugged me TIGHT, something wonderful.

When we got in the car, my hubby told me he was looking for me and as he was looking, he saw this super gorgeous YOUNG woman, and quickly turned away, because he didn't want to stare at a beautiful woman (he's a wonderful handsome best friend husband). He said when he glanced at this woman, she was super beautiful and sharp looking and he thought she was a "classy-YOUNG" college girl or something. He said, when he came back in the store to find me, only to discover I WAS THAT GORGEOUS YOUNG WOMAN he glanced at...that's why he hugged me the way he did in the store. He said he honestly didn't know it was me for some reason, when he first turned around and saw "this young woman". He said when recognized me, he felt like the luckiest man in the world! That just made me giggle and smile and feel so very special and GOOD!

I was a bit disappointed on Friday night - I met up with some cycling friends I haven't seen for a while and none of them really noticed my weight loss. The closest was someone who said my dress looked nice on me. But then on Saturday and Sunday I met up with different people who I haven't seen for a similar amount of time and they all came straight out with comments on it, so I'm a bit happier now that you can actually see the difference (I know you can from the way my clothes fit, but it's nice that other people can see it too).

Welp, I'm pretty solidly into smalls now unless it's sized for juniors, lol. Didn't expect that to come so soon. I accepted mediums quite easily but I seem to be in denial about smalls and keep reaching for mediums that are too big. Then I look at the smalls and I think, "well, I might as well try it and see, maybe I'm in between" and it fits perfectly.

Finally got my new driver's license in the mail! Face gains abound! Lost a lot of chin, a lot of eyebrow, and a lot of hair, lol. Old one is on the left, from about 4-5 years ago.

I'm done with physical therapy and took my exercise up a notch today by jogging for 30 minutes - the 1st time since the drunk driver totalled my car on the freeway at 90mph against the cement center divider back in September.

Bonus from jog, I turned a shade tanner as I easily tan so losing my winter color - legs not so pale.

I know... big whoop only 30 minutes... but this is also despite stupid asthma and finally recovered from injury.

I also gave away my secret stash of candy bars that I keep for my teacher's assistant but being honest, they really half end up in me from stress eating.

@RelCanonical You missed an NSV...you actually look super cute in a driver's license photo! I didn't think that was possible for anyone!

Thank you! I got lucky with the watermark this time, too, lol. The Mackinac Bridge isn't poking me in the forehead.

Not where I want to be yet, but I can get into my kilt and look pretty okay in it.

Did you get it online or have it made? My husband has a lot of Swedish and Scottish and he wants a kilt SO bad. We go to a lot of heavy metal shows and he's always insanely jealous of the men we see there rocking them.
