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

Today I had a few! Finally....

I ran into an old coworker. She said....you look great, have you lost a significant amount of weight?

Also, one of my students said....you are getting so skinny...your pants are falling off of you.

Totally made my day

I walk every night. I usually get around 3 miles in just a couple minutes over an hour or just under 3 miles in just under an hour but tonight I made 3.11 miles in 59 minutes!! Considering a few weeks ago 2 miles was huge this is great!

I have two great ones today:
I ran all the way up a hill that I have never been able to run up entirely today.... it is a killer!
Also, today in Zumba there was a part where we had to get down low in a wide squat and shake it... and the teacher was like... yeah, this is it! She has the lowest... I want you as low as HER!!!!
I was thinking... I can't believe you just pointed me out like that but Hey, it was for something good so I guess I shouldn't mind... one lady came up to me after class and said that she was impressed that I could get down that low.... lol

I'm biting the bullet and going work pant shopping tomorrow... I think.. when you start using safety pins to hold your pants together (so they fit- by overlapping), then that's a sign. It looks like I'm wearing a circus tent!

HAPPY

I stayed under my calorie goal. That's a miracle in itself. :happy:

OMGOSH LOVE THIS!!! CONGRATS TO EVERYONE ON HERE WHO POSTED!!! I finally know the meaning of NSV and I get to add my two cents.....two days ago at the grocery store a dad came up to me and said "Excuse me miss, I couldn't help but notice.....are you a weightlifter? Cuz my daughter is a weight lifter who just graduated college etc etc etc....." he was so excited about his kid and then he apologized when I told him i wasn't.

Today I was in the organic isle and some guy just walked past all humble and said...."you're really pretty" and just kept walking.

Two weeks ago I went to a bodyworks class at the gym and asked the instructor (who was new to me) how she does things and she says...."Well you look strong so....."

Sorry, I had to catch up on my NSV's a little since I just found out today what that meant. LOL. But little things like that just make me so encouraged. I love it when you get compliments like that when they take you by surprise and they are genuine or just hidden in a sentence.

I have been struggling with my appearance, and to hear the teacher tell me suggest the size in weight because 'i look strong' and then that guy ask if i was a weightlifter....I'm like DAMN?!?! Why don't I believe my husband when he tells me I'm beautiful? LMAOOO

I bought a skirt today and it was too big. I exchanged it for a smaller size and still a little big. Happy about that, sad now I have no skirt!

I was going to have a rest day but I couldn't help but go out for a walk & then go home & mow the lawns. I have so much energy, I love it!!

I have been noticing my pants have been falling off me a lot more lately. But, b/c money is tight I haven't been able to buy new pants, so I've been trying to hold them up with a belt. Today at work, I had to be re-fitted for my uniform pants and I have gone down TWO PANT SIZES!! So very exciting!!!!!

All of these other victories are encouraging!!! Keep up all the good work!!!
