What's Your Most Recent NSV

I've broken the hold bread/rolls/bready type things had on me (once again) and I'm feeling 'lighter' in my abdomen and it feels so much better.

Went for pizza, ate half and brought the rest home. That’s the second time I’ve managed to eat pizza until I was full instead of until it was finished!!

I also walked there and back in order to avoid using public transportation - 18K steps. Pretty good day so far.

Staying home has been really challenging, but we bought a stationary bike to use for workouts and I have been logging daily to keep an eye on what I'm eating, which is a success in and of itself!

My NSV is that I've been working out at home. I find it much, much easier to go to an actual gym. Once I'm at the gym I just get down to business. Home is full of distractions, so in a way I'm more proud of myself for getting the workout done at home than I would be had I gone to the gym.

Well done!!! I am also finding home workouts way more difficult; it's just so easy to find something else I'd rather do.

My exercise leggings are getting too big

My wedding band is loose so my wife got me a groove ring because i can Lift with it.

I am now in size 36-38 pants and I cannot remember when that last was. My mother said it's probably been since junior high..wow!

I am now wearing my fitbit 2 notches tighter. This was a bit of an eye opener for me.

My mom cried when she saw me (it was 12 weeks) because I look even more like my father who passed away many years ago. It was pretty emotional for us. My grandmother (father's side) was stunned when i walked in during the holidays.

Sooooooooooo many these days...so many!

1.) I'm super rolling with the traumatic and life altering punches of all the "mess" the world and our country has us locked down in/under with the dreaded pandemic, rolling with joy and hope come what may.

2.) I let my beloved husband cut my hair into a super ultra short pixie--way shorter than I originally had it professionally cut and it looks ultra FABULOUS, I love it--it's soooo cute and EASY to maintain!!!!!! I LOVE my husband and he was so nervous to cut it and did such a professional and utterly smashing job--WOW!

3.) With all this time in the lock-down, I've been spending even more time with/in The Lord and His Word, His Way, His Truth and His Life and just giving myself (my eyes, ears and thoughts over to truth and goodness things) and it's keeping my heart and mind encouraged, strengthened and filled with power, light and life (instead of depression, fear and yuck).

4.) I purchased a pair of jeans online that were a size 4 (by accident--I thought they were a bigger size AND I kept them instead of sending them back because they're SUPER CUTE and to use as a hopeful "maybe one day I will be able to fit them" thing) and I couldn't even get my leg into 6-7 months ago, I can now ALMOST button them up--not quite, but it's soooo amazing that I almost can fit into a size 4 (from a previous high of size 22w)!!!

5.) Several of my children have been given promotions and/or new/better job opportunities in the midst of this scary messy pandemic...just miraculous!

6.) I am loved and love loving...even in the midst of all of this WOE, stress and mess--it's utterly wonderful how love, love for God, myself and my neighbors (people) colors my thoughts, actions and deeds. I love LOVE more and more each day!!!!!

There's a carrot cake on the counter with cream cheese icing and I'd rather have a cheese stick and go to bed.

Again with me and my old fat clothes... On a lark last night, I tried to pull my blue jeans off without opening the button or zipper, and was shocked when I succeeded so easily. My belt is doing yeoman's work these days! I really need to go shopping for new clothes!
