Forgot to bring my jacket and had to run a 5K in short sleeves. Quite surprised how big my arms look in this finish photo! The "Winter of Curls" is paying off!

I have been doing that as well now since December - by default. The elevator is broken. When it's finally fixed I may take it a time or two to enjoy having the elevator again, but most likely will still take the stairs. The office is only on the 3rd floor
That's great! My lab is on the 3rd floor as well. I figured it gets my steps and flights in for the day and I'm actually seeing that I'm less fatigued by taking them the more I climb them!8 -

I have been also and i'm on the 4th floor.
That's awesome, Sherry! My lab is on the 3rd floor, so it's not bad at all!4 -
I’m able to cross my legs again! Was sitting in the neighbours garden chatting away. Next thing I realise I’ve crossed my legs.
It’s the little things that mean so much23 -
Didn't expect it but hubby said 'your jeans are getting baggy'. Someone noticed.

My 23yr old son talked me into committing to a routine and going to the gym with him at 5:45am. My son has since, moved, and I miss him dearly and thought I would slack knowing he's not there to push me, but 5months later, I am no longer trying to talk myself out of skipping the gym, and go 3x a week, and walk for 45mins/1hr on alternate days.32

Today I wore skinny jeans over my gym leggings. These used to be my goal jeans. Now, even over leggings, they were only tight in the calves where I've gained muscle.31

High knees are high!!! I was so happy when my hip flexors weren't hurting when stepping out of the shower and lifting a legs to dry off. Sounds dumb but those hip flexor suffered during my pregnancy and now I can get off the floor without pushing off of my leg. I just pop right up. I'd like to thank mountain climbers and plank jacks (it's a love hate lol)19

I no longer have a waist bulge over my pants. That was *really* bothering me and now that it’s gone, I can bend over more easily (without feeling that bulge enlarge), I can sit on a bench without worrying about what my waist must look like from behind. Yeah I know nobody probably notices but I was self-conscious anyway & it’s just so liberating to no longer concern myself with it.17

I am having to buy a whole new wardrobe for spring/summer this year. For the last 2 years I have been able to go down through the various sizes I already had in my closet. With some exceptions for seasonal differences, I haven't had to buy a whole lot until now. Last month when I decided to try on my last summer's clothes I quickly realized there was absolutely nothing I had that wasn't too big! Best feeling ever! However, I am spending a lot of money right now replacing those clothes.20

My favorite NSV so far is comfortably sitting with my legs crossed at the knees..... all the time now.17

My NSV is that I’m back, as of May 1. After less than a week, I already feel more energetic and less bloated. Pre-COVID I had lost 63 lb here, eating right, logging, and exercising. Then COVID hit, and my beloved uncle and aunt died, and my father-in-law died, and my husband and I both got COVID twice, and my dad died suddenly, and I had a bad medication reaction and went completely deaf in one ear. And I’m a stress eater, so guess what? I put all 63 lb back on and then some. But last weekend I decided I was done wallowing in sorrow and stress, and it’s time for me to take care of myself, or else I’m headed for a stroke or heart failure. No one else is going to take of me, and I deserve as much care as I’m giving to others.
Thanks to every single one of you who’s posted on this thread. Your stories lift my spirits and remind me that the struggle to get healthy will be worth every minute spent. You are heroes to me.32 -

Having hip flexors (psoas muscles) that work is a huge step towards getting your fitness back!! After 3 years of sciatic issues which led to periformis issues which then led to seized up hip flexors I can't wait to have your joy. I've taken care of the first 2 issues and currently working on the hip flexors. I find if I sit for days at a time it's a step backwards. I'm currently researching every exercise that can possibly help loosen them up. I have bad knees so getting up off the ground is brutal at the best of times. Here's to being able to "just popping right up"...

1. I can now fit into a pair of jeans that I couldn't pull past my thighs a few months ago.
2. I just tried on 5 old jackets and they all fit beautifully
3. I feel fitter and stronger and I'm putting way more power behind my punches at my boxing fitness class16
