What's Your Most Recent NSV

Yesterday I learned a new term following an EKG for an upcoming medical procedure - sinus bradycardia.
It's a heart rhythm that's slower than expected (fewer than 60 beats per minute for an adult) but otherwise normal. It could be indicative of certain heart conditions or just a sign that a person is in very good shape because of regular exercise.
I would have NEVER imagined this would have ever applied to me - I am tremendously proud of this NSV.

Not to burst your bubble but it doesn't necessarily mean you're in good condition.
I have a heart rate under 50 and I an over weight and out of shape old man.
Bradycardia is just another condition that happens as people age.
You may actually be in great condition but maybe there's another reason.

Point taken. That being said, I am in great condition and have no other health concerns.12 -
My NSV is that I am finally losing inches from my waist. Of course I have lost inches everywhere after a 90+ lb weight loss, but my waist has been lagging behind the rest of my measurements. I take my measurements monthly and some months my waist has not decreased at all. The most I have lost in a month was one inch. That changed this month. I lost a full 2 inches in my waist! I don't know if it's because I added weight training to my routine or if my body just decided it was time to let go of the fat in my mid-section. Lol.15

I am experiencing something more or less similar. I do not regularly measure my circumference, but it takes a really long time before I see a difference in pant sizes, and it is only since about a month that it has shrunk below 1 m, despite losing about 60 kg and now being of normal weight according to the popular but flawed BMI (22.6). For me, the scale remains the most precise way to determine progress even if it certainly has its own disadvantages. That said, I recently bought 4 medium-size turtleneck sweaters and despite the fact that I still have a prominent spare tire, I should probably be OK with a small as well. Coming from XXL, that is something of a difference.My NSV is that I am finally losing inches from my waist.

Ran a half marathon in less than two and a half hours.29

I went shopping over the weekend. Knowing I could walk into any store and they would have something in my size was SUCH a good feeling. Not something I've always been able to do.22

I had three rolls of back fat.
I now have two rolls and a faint crease.
I'm doing something right!34 -
Can walk down the stairs without having to take them one at a time. My knees feel so much better.

I've walked 5000 steps each day yesterday and the day before! Still not the recommended amount but I feel it in my legs!22

For me it was when all those old clothes I saved in case I ever lost weight and fit into them again got packed up to be donated because they no longer fit and were way too big. And going shopping and realizing I fit into sizes that I hadn't fit into since I was 13 or so.
I took it slow and steady for most of my weight loss but once I was able to start running without killing my knees the rest melted off really quick. I'm still not quite adjusted to it and will sometimes be folding laundry wondering how I will ever fit into those clothes. But I do and they look great.19 -
I just replaced last winters 5x mens hoodie with a 3x womens hoodie. The 2x fit but I wanted it to be a little looser for layering.

This morning I glanced at my naked self in the mirror and actually thought I looked fit. That in itself is a NSV for me. My weight has been stable for a few months, and I’ve continued to progress in heavy weight lifting, so I checked my measurements and found that I’ve shrunk almost another full inch in my waist. Helz yeah!19

I was a little discouraged this morning as I didn’t sleep, everything hurts and the scale was up FOUR pounds.
I did my yoga this morning and accidentally discovered I can do a full Plow Pose, tops of my feet flat on the floor this morning.
I got ready to go to the store and was like dang… my waist looks tiny. Tiny. I measured it and I have lost FOUR INCHES around my waist since I took the measurements for my biometric screening for my health insurance a month ago…. I was absolutely stunned. 😮
And my last NSV is I’m doing the IFIT beginning running with Tommy Rivs and I am midway through week 2 and I’m doing it. That’s all… I’m plugging along. I’m succeeding. And I’m so excited to be able to keep up and I can’t wait to finish this series.

A few weeks ago, but donated all my XL shirts and some of my pants to Goodwill. Holding onto some pants, shorts and sweaters because I don't have any that actually fit and I want to wait until I get to my target weight before I buy anymore.17

I’ve been having a wee vent/moan that I’ve lost weight but couldn’t really see where from. This week I keep catching glimpses of my face in the mirror and thinking my face looks wrong (spoiler it just doesn’t match my memory of how my face looks), and I fit into a medium pair of leggings and a pair of leggings that I couldn’t get on 9 weeks ago. Very pleased with that14

I bought 2 pairs of Levi's that in size 26 last year. The dark blue jeans are roomy in the waist and baggy in the butt. And the black pair which I couldn't button fit perfectly in the waist and getting baggy in the butt. My Old Navy Jeans I'm going into a size 22. I can't wait!16

I officially need to buy all new jeans. I've wore out 3 belts trying to make my baggy jeans last as long as possible.16
