Share it! What's your NSV (Non-Scale Victory) today?: Sept 2

Putting together a bag of clothing to take to the thrift store... for the first time in my life, I'm not getting rid of clothes because I've gotten too big for them. It's because they're now too big for me! :bigsmile:

My husband, who works at a gym as a swim coach, is on a 48 hour monitor because he's having weird spikes in his hr while exercising. His boss's wife called him in to ask about the "rumors" she's heard about his heart issues. He explained what's going on and she said, "or maybe your wife is giving you some serious palpatations with how hot she's getting." :blushing:

This week I had to go buy smaller underwear!! That is the second time since July!
I even decided to spend real money on my new "smaller butt" underpants because for years I have just purchased the packaged cotton ones since- why would I buy expensive ones to put on "this" butt?

Today I can actually see my biceps!!&&&& I can also see the shoulder muscles in my arms!!

I fought my self out of bed at 7am this morning and went on a morning bike ride. For me, that was a great victory.

I was drying my hands in the restroom at work, when another lady (don't know her; she's not in my department) came in and started exclaiming how much weight I've lost!

I was shocked! Not only because I don't know her (and am positive I've never mentioned to anyone outside my department that I'm on a diet), but because I'm still wearing the same clothes I was 25 lbs ago. (I am one of those people whose awkward budget only allows for discretionary spending once in a blue moon, so new clothes will only be bought once I have lost all 90 lbs.) So really, there's honestly not that much to see!

Anyway, that lifted my mood pretty high up there!

The new pants I bought just 5 weeks ago are hanging on me today

My work pants I bought about a month ago, no longer fit. I am constantly pulling them up or using my server apron as a temporary belt. Luckily I didn't take the tags off of the other two pairs I bought or I'd have 3 pairs of pants that don't fit!

My pants feel loose today :-)

I'm pretty sure I'll need a belt with my jeans

My boobs don't pop up at the top like they use to...they sit neatly in the cup like they should.Good girls!(time for a new bra soon?):happy:

I tried on some size 9 skinny jeans. They looked like they'd been painted on - but in a good way. ;-D

I didn't have to hold my stomach in to button and zip my pants this morning!!! But i had to find a belt to hold up a once way to tight pair of pants!

yeah me :drinker:

WOW!! These are awesome and very inspiring!! You guys are rocking it!!

I have also had a good NSV this week. I had decided to reward myself with some new pants when I reached 150 lbs., which I hit this week. When I went shopping, I was fitting into all the Size 8s and Mediums!! I have not been in those in years!! I bought myself one new outfit on Tuesday and rocked it yesterday, and got all kinds of compliments...likely because my clothes actually fit and you could tell I had lost weight. This morning I put on a pair of size 10 dress pants that I have been wearing, and they literally fell off me...with button and zipper still done...couldn't even wear them to work. So, I went digging in the back of my closet in the "skinny" clothes and pulled out a pair of pants that I have not worn in about 5 years, and they fit perfectly!! Guess I am going to need to go shopping this weekend!!

Keep up the great work everyone...you are doing great!!

Today, I went shopping for clothes to wear to the gym (my pants practically fall off of me while I run, not good!), and to my surprise, I'm a size medium! I also measured my thighs today and they are 26" at the widest, when they had just been 29" a couple weeks ago! Two weeks ago, I didn't even think about fitting my sausage legs into a medium, hahaha.
