What's Your Most Recent NSV

I never comment so here it goes 23lbs down.

I bought a really nice wool/cashmere jacket 12 years ago. It came in too small as an xl and I was xxxl I figured I will keep it and here is my motivation to loose weight, well I didn't, I tried but nothing worked. A few days ago I found the jacket in the back of my closet put it on for the first time and zipped it up!!!

2nd NSV people keep saying they can see that I am loosing in my face. This week I looked in the mirror and I saw it in my face. I laughed at myself as I said I can see it in your face.

3rd NSV I logged my weight as 279 and thought you nucklehead its 297... then I realized no I was right the first time 279 woohoo I am gaining distance from the 300lbs I started. I couldn't believe it.

AMAZING!! Logging for a whole year?? You are a rockstar!

I'm not exactly sure what NSV means but, from the comments, I'm thinking it's an achievement. My most recent achievement is being able to walk 3 miles without sitting down for a break!

I hit 1 million logged synced steps with MFP!

I find that part of doing this for a couple years (for I started at over 100 pounds overweight) is to manage my calories so that I get sweets. These are not big things; sugar-free jam on my English muffin some mornings, a fun-sized candy bar after lunch, or a 100 calorie crispy rice treat an hour and a half before dinner is ready, and the cozy winding down of the day with cookies and hot drinks before bedtime, for 150 calories.

Well, I try to prelog, but I don't always get it done. Tonight after dinner, I checked my food log to see if I'd prelogged dinner or not, and realized that I had allotted myself a mini candy bar at dinner. For that matter, I had allotted myself one after lunch, and I hadn't eaten it.

I cannot believe that someone who used to eat chocolate chips straight from the bag if that was the only chocolate in the house would FORGET a candy bar.

I intend to eat it, since I logged it. It's sitting there on my desk. It's sat there for about three hours. I haven't gotten round to it yet. I might not tonight.

NSV. Serious NSV.

I got all of my water in for the last 3 days.

I had the "there is no way I fit into this shirt....oh, wait, that's the shirt I worked out in two days ago" experience today while folding the laundry.

I was playing around with my clothes, and tried to put together a specific outfit I wanted to wear last year but couldn't because it was too tight. Well, when I styled it earlier this week, it wasn't so tight and looked great

Okay so here is one I did not anticipate happening. Stayed long at church today to chat with people and a friend who I haven't seen in a while came up. We shook hands and he eyeballed me and said, "hey are you losing weight?" I said something like yeah and he said, "on purpose?"

...He thought I was deathly ill. Granted, I didn't feel so hot this morning, but i'll be danged if he didn't mistake me for a terminal case.

so, FYI, I guess 32 pounds in 100-ish days is enough to make people wonder if you're sick.

Honestly, I thought it was funny.

I rode almost 10 miles on my bike! That to me is a huge NSV because I could barely ride around the block before! I am going to continue to increase my mileage. There are lots of cool places to visit that are within biking distance.
