    Mine happened last Friday. I was wearing my jeans... the only pair that used to fit and they literally fell off my booty when I was walking. I was excited. Time for new pants!

    I left my sneakers at work today and instead of letting that be my excuse for not working out tonight, I took the dog for a walk in my flip-flops :) Before I would have just gave up and done nothing.

    I realized today that I am only 6 pounds away from my lying weight on my ID!! I know it's weird but I always felt terrible saying what I weighed so I lied and I NEVER thought I would get close to that weight and yet 19 pounds lost later and I'm ridiculously close to being my lie weight!!

    I have two....
    1. My shadow has shrunk! Seems strange but I noticed that my silhouette was thinner!!
    2. While throwing the football around with my son this weekend, I had more energy and he wanted to stop before I did! That's a switch!

    I fit into old pants, and bought 3 pairs of pants this weekend a size smaller =)

    My NSV goal is to do gymnastics again. I've been doing my backbends, kickovers, "tick-tocks", handstands, cartwheels, etc. But I want to get into the back-handsprings again!

    I've had several people recently ask me if I have lost weight, and tell me I look good.
    My clothes are fitting better, well worse in some cases, but too big is better than too small.
    I have noticed I don't always head straight for some of the food I used to (Fried etc) though if I do grab some yummies I am managing to keep my portion size down.

    I walked up a hill today and didn't get as winded as I used to.
    SUCCESS!

    I put on an outfit the other day that was a little too snug just about a week ago and it fit so much better. Then after I told my husband I had lost two pounds, he said, "I know, I can see it. You know where I can see it?.... right here" and he touched my belly! So in less than five pounds so far he can see it! I love it. I think the yoga is really working for me :)

    Push ups. Doing standard push ups makes me all kinds of happy. 15 straight might not be much but they made me super happy. My dream: I'd to do a full pull up. Straight hang to chin over the bar. * dreams away*

    Last week I noticed that I can see my collar bone for the first time in years.

    Today I bought pants a size smaller than what I've been wearing for over a year and a half.

    I went hiking for hours this weekend and by the end of the day I was ready for another walk instead of being exhausted.

    What is "nsv"? :-) I get the concept based on your stories, just not sure what it stands for...

    A non scale victory!! Past on the long johns and chocolate milk! Got my husband to join me on a long walk, and he even started drinking diet drinks. Tonight, I asked if he was ready for me to fix supper or could I go for a walk, and he said go for a walk! Huge victories for me!!

    LOL! I don't think I've *ever* told the truth about my weight on my ID. I had to go look at mine just now to see what it says - talk about lying like a rug!

    You've given me a new milestone:
    48 lbs to go, and I'll no longer be making a liar out my ID.

    And a new long-term goal:
    When it's time to renew my ID in 2015, I want the new one to show my goal weight and to be telling the truth! :happy:

    Hahaha I just reached my previously lying ID weight!! Feels good. But soon it will be lying again because it will be OVER what I actually weigh. :bigsmile: Good thing I have to renew at the end of this year.

    I walked up a hill today and didn't get as winded as I used to.
    SUCCESS!

    This was my NSV yesterday.

    And another one. I was waiting for the compound row weight machine at the gym and there was a guy there finishing up his reps. He was probably 5'8" 180 or something like that. Anyway, he finished his set and I was shocked. He used 65 pounds. I thought, is that even challenging for you?

    I moved it up to 110 (a new high) and did my 3 sets. But actually, I can probably move up to 125 tomorrow. They reps weren't super challenging, I probably could have done 15, but I stopped at 12. ;) I was aiming for 3 sets of 10.
