Today I looked in the mirror and genuinely smiled at myself.28

I bought my first bikini since I was a teenager. Not the flattest tummy but I don’t look gross and have the confidence to wear it outside!29

I haven't binged in almost 2 weeks! That's a pretty long time for me so I'm very excited.39

Kind of an odd NSV, but...I didn't go grocery shopping last week. I decided to see if I could use the food currently in the house, since I had a bunch of odds n ends that I could put together into things. The real challenge was keeping to my deficit while still feeling satisfied. It worked out quite successfully, and now I know that I can still keep to my deficit during times when I may not have the exact foods I'm used to (because I had used them up already the week before). It was excellent practice for maintenance.36

This is the best thread!
For me it’s little, but I was confident enough to wake up early do my YouTube works at my in-laws. I got my workout in and I’m still on schedule for the program I’m going through!20 -
I went to a thrift store today and bought two pairs of shorts without being able to try them on -lo and behold, they were tight. The NSV part is that while I’m a little bummed, I know that a piece of fabric doesn’t take away from my efforts of becoming healthier and doesn’t affect my self-worth!15

So quickly another NSV for me! Ran a half-marathon distance this morning - only my second ever at that distance - and got a time of 1hr 39 minutes. Not bad for a 51 yr old that only started running 18 months ago.
Now, of course, I can't move. Not because of the running, because I rewarded myself by ordering pizza! Still under my calorie goal for the day, though.

I was catching up wit me sister in law at a family event today.
She asked how I had been spending my time while furloughed and I mentioned I’d taken up running. She said “it shows and it looks really good” 😊
I also sat in a classic canvas-and-wood beach chair (you know, the flimsy looking ones with long piece of fabric in a wooden frame) without being concerned that it would not take my weight. Last year I would definitely not have risked it!21 -

I did some strength training this morning! I needed an NSV because the scale hasn't budged in a while. And my first pair of goal jeans aren't fitting even though I have lost some weight in the last few months.
I tend to wake up early in the summers naturally and just lying in bed on my phone or reading. But then yesterday I had an epiphany - why don't I strength train at that time instead of trying (and 90% of the time failing) to fit it in in the afternoon? It makes a lot of sense. When it is not so hot outside I go for a hike early in the morning. And last summer I went swimming rather than hiking. But this year, I have been wanting to swim but it hasn't gotten very hot yet so I think the water is still too cold. But I just suddenly realized yesterday I can still be working out.
So here's hoping I can continue this!20 -
Went wild swimming in Loch Lomond with my friends and son this week. I managed to get into my wetsuit without a major struggle for the first time in 2 years, very happy21

Ran my first 10K since returning to running in April after a 6 year hiatus 😊 07:53 min/km, I’m pleased.17

I had to adjust my bra straps to be tighter.16

I went for a walk yesterday evening after dinner, on my own since my husband didn't want to come. I was out for and hour and when I cam back and tracked it I realised i had more than three miles (just over 5km). It was a lovely evening and I really enjoyed it. Oddly and annoyingly the scale was up this morning (I over ate over the weekend), but the walk was good and i shall do it again.18

It doesn't feel like a NSV, but my periods are getting more regular and that's a health improvement.
I'm not sure if it was the excess weight or the excess stress, but something wasn't right previously, and my body is starting to heal itself.35 -
This isn’t recent but it just struck me that it’s an NSV rather than just an annoyance.
I don’t know what my start weight was because I didn’t weigh myself until 2 weeks in. Thus missing the opportunity to record that initial big drop. Every time I see how much I lost on my profile I think “but it’s more than that really”. The reason I didn’t weigh myself is the battery in the scale was dead and it took us a couple of weeks to get a replacement (thanks to strict lockdown I couldn’t just go to a shop and grab one and there’s no Amazon here).
Suddenly tonight I realized it’s an NSV that I didn’t put off starting until I got the battery. If I had, at best I’d be a few weeks behind where I am now, at worst I may never have started because who knows if I would have felt motivated to get into it when the battery arrived.37 -
My NSV is that I'm back. Joined MFP in 2016, lost 130 pounds, got pregnant & gained some (totally normal and healthy) weight, had an awesome baby, successfully parented for a year, and now I'm back to lose some of that weight. Calorie counting is still easy, but fitting it in with a small child who wants to put everything in her mouth is tricky. Here we go37

I can sit in restaurant booths again! No more requesting a table because I can't fit into the booths.29

My resting heart rate has gone down, so presumably I'm a little fitter. Also I had to stop wearing my comfy jeans because they got a hole in the knee. Not being able to shop for new jeans, I tried a pair that had been too tight in the waist. They now fit perfectly. In fact, I need to wear a belt to keep them up!21

Scale hasn’t changed in a year, but i put up 215 X 1 for the first time in 25 years.
Strength can’t be measured on a scale!15
