What's Your Most Recent NSV

Standing for an entire concert and only sitting when the performers were talking was my most recent NSV!! my feet did hurt still but i toughed it out hehe, i felt so great after that night!

I exercised on a Sunday! I usually nap and be lazy, but Belize in January has me extra motivated.

For about a year now I've been waking myself up by hearing myself snoring. Most days. I just realised that I must have gone 3-4 days in a row without waking myself up. I know that it's going to come back depending on my nose being blocked etc but 3-4 days is pretty much unheard of before now.

I went for my annual physical recently and got my test results back yesterday. My cholesterol and fasting blood glucose levels are down by 10 points from what they were pre-weight loss. Woo hoo!

Size 10 shorts are somewhat big.

Did Elliptical, 215 minutes for 16.3 miles. The amazing thing is I used the arm poles the whole time. I've never done that before as my arms would get tired. I had a total of 4 different ways I would place my hands. On the handle bars and 2 different ways on the mileage/timer console. My mileage was about 13.2 minutes/mile. A bit faster pace!

Going overseas to help daughter move.

In a small student sized backpack I have painting clothes, two sets of workout gear, jammies, a dress and five changes of clothes, including jeans and shorts and a jacket, since it gets chill there in the evenings.

There’s plenty of room left over in the backpack for the Nutter Butters and Samoas she asked me to bring. My checked bag is full of painting and moving supplies, and gifts.

In the old days, larger clothes would have taken up the entire checked bag.

I keep reviewing my list because, surely, I’ve forgotten something. It doesn’t seem normal to be able to get by with a backpack.

I love this! How awesome that you're carrying a "lighter load" in more ways than one!!!
My younger sister always manages to pack in the smallest possible suitcase. I always "wonder" how she does it - I'm a minimalist packer and she's not, but my suitcase is always bigger! In reality - I know why - she's tiny and I'm not. But I'll get there someday!

I have had a shift of mindset. I was picking up my new, smaller sized clothes thinking “That will never fit” but this morning I picked up a pair of my older pants and was thinking “that is too big. It will never fit” Somehow my brain accepted my new size of clothes as actually belonging to me! 😀😀😀

Congratulations of moving towards getting past the dysmorphia of the new you!

I have that sometimes. I had it happen on Tuesday. I've been shopping for some "vintage retro" clothes for a funky wedding I'm going to soon. I already had the perfect shirt, but my funky pants don't really fit their theme. I can just wear a pair of slacks because... I never do that.... Anyway, one thing I've noticed about shopping for this kind of thing is that I sometimes have better luck if I wander to the women's section of the thrift shop. I've been accumulating funky clothes for some festivals I attend most years.

I found the perfect pair of pants. But the fitting rooms are closed. It's a woman's size, so I have no idea if it would have fit. Plus, with all the vanity sizing - no way to tell without trying it on. I also noticed the tiny tiny pockets. I put it back on the rack. I still wonder if maybe it would have fit. I thought, "No; too small." Then I thought, "You don't even realize how small your clothes have gotten lately." I suppose I could go back. I bet they'll still be there tomorrow or over the weekend. I can bring a tape measure and get a good idea because I know what they should MEASURE.

Completed my first Super Sprint Triathlon! Finished second in my age group in 56:16.
