What's Your Most Recent NSV

I am sitting around in a pair of size 8 jeans and a baggy (size) medium t-shirt.

This isn't even NEW, but it is so, so surreal.

My preferred running shorts no longer require Vaseline to prevent thigh chafing.

I had to throw out my belt because it was way too big and the old marks from past sizes made it look terrible.

This may be a weird one. But I am terrible at “being present” whilst eating. I usually have the TV on or pick my phone up multiple times and scroll Facebook (yeah I know it’s hardly hygienic) tonight I made a conscious decision to be present and savour my meal. I made sure I slowed down (I usually scoff!) and made myself chew each mouthful at least 40 times. I did reach for my phone out of habit a few times but quickly put it back down without unlocking it, with a reminder “no, you told yourself you weren’t doing that tonight”

I think it came from a massive conversation that my partner and I had last night about how we are both guilty of zoning out. I feel like this is another NSV. We will sit on the couch and cuddle but barely talk because we are both scrolling our phones or zoned into tv. It’s something we have promised each other we would work on in our relationship and it just floated over into my dinner time tonight (my partner works until 9pm and I got hungry early so had dinner by myself tonight)

Week one of vacation—nutrition hasn’t been perfect, but I’ve walked/ran every day and lifted 3 out of 6 days (including my 10 hr solo drive day).

Bring on week 2–plans to visit a few climbing gyms, another ninja gym, and do some hiking.

Since I was barely breaking a sweat during my daily cardio, I switched my workout music from 'Dance Pop' to 'Club Electronica.' Whew!

Needing all new clothes, tops and bottoms and undergarments. Costly NSV but I've bought a few pieces only because I'm 27 lbs to my final goal and I will still need more clothes.

Good job everyone alot of wonderful NSV

Realizing this week that my waist has returned after all these years....

20 push ups!!! I did 20 push ups, like full ones on my toes yesterday. In 3 sets...10, 6, and 4. This is a big thing for me since I had shoulder surgery in 2019 and hadn't been able to do push ups.

I can sit indian-style/criss-cross applesauce/pretzel-style (whatever you refer to it as)

I can comfortably sit in a chair that was too tight fitting (hip-wise) that I couldn't a few months ago

Shirts that were once too tight on me are now so baggy that I should probably stop wearing them.

Same. I was heading out the other day and haphazardly grabbed a "comfortable" shirt. When I saw my reflection in the mirror later, I realized I should no longer wear it out of the house as it absolutely hangs off me (and not in a good way!)

Congratulations to you and continued success!

I hit my first small weight loss goal on 7/12 BUT then I want off the rails with over eating for an entire week and didn't track anything. I was feeling super disappointed in myself but watched a YouTube video by Jordan Syatt and he basically says, you can't "ruin" your progress unless you stop completely. He motivated me to stop feeling upset with myself and to get back on track this week. I did just that and when I weighed in today, I was only 1lb up from my 7/12 weigh-in. I thought it would be MUCH higher. Though I talk about my weight here, my NSV is that I stopped feeling hopeless over how I ate the week before and dusted myself off, and got back up and to it this week! Super proud of that, because in the past I would have just let that week turn into a month or several, or just stopped completely.

I went to a grand reopening last night which meant there was LOTS of delicious food out. I had gone out to eat before arriving and wasn't hungry at all. In old days, I would still eat stuff because it looked so yummy, but last night, I ate one cherry and walked away. It felt so good to stay away!

I wore a sports bra that was too small 6 months ago. It's probably not really a great cut for me - now looks a little big in some parts, but feels fine and was very comfortable. I'm glad I can get some wear out of it anyway.
