An NSV for me!

Even though I don't post much on this site, I'm on here almost every day to log my calories and exercise. It's made me very accountable which has been the driving force for the continued weight loss. I don't think I'd be as successful if this site didn't exist!
But on to the NSV.
Last weekend, I finally bought new jeans now that I've gotten to a size that I said I'd buy something new. I started as an 18 or 20 and finally bought a size 14 jeans. I won't quit until I'm a 12 or even a 10 but everything I own is too big!
The ticker that I have on here says that I've lost 33 pounds but when I weighed myself on April 8, 2011 my weight was 6 pounds higher that day. Ultimately, I've lost 39 from that day last year. It should be higher but I completely believe in this being a lifestyle change and I know I'll get to where I'm going, all in due time. It's made it less difficult having those cheat days and not stressing over it. The end result will still be the same, just a little further away.
I've been doing my measurements every time I lose a pound or so and have lost 23 inches off my body. The biggest changes are on my chest which is 3 inches, waist is 4.5 inches, and hips are 5 inches. Naturally, I'm not happy with the boobs being smaller but I'm extremely happy fitting those new jeans and having a smaller *kitten*!! lol
Keep up the good work everyone because the success feels so much better than having all that weight on the body!
