A Few NSVs

Just a few NSV of the past few weeks.

I had to buy a new belt.

I bought size 38 jeans 5 weeks ago. Started this journey at 44", I figured I would be able to get into them when I got down to 200 pounds. I would try them on every week after I weighed myself. Always too tight. I didn't try them on last week because I only lost one pound. I put them on this week after losing 5 pounds and not only did they fit, they are big on me. And I am only at 209. Looks like I am going to need a smaller size when I hit my goal and beyond.

This MFP thing is pretty cool. It has made me religiously follow my calories. I don't watch the Protiens, fats and carbs so much. I tend to watch the calories more. Sometimes I feel like a mad scientist. I love my late night snack eating. So, I am always trying to save calories for the night time. And I ALWAYS go out to eat on Friday nights, my cheat night. I eat whatever I want.

    This morning I tossed out all my 44s, 42s and 40s.
    Bought new underwear after the gym this morning and tossed out the old ones.

    The wife is laughing. She did the same thing when she lost a ton of weight a few years ago.

    Congratulations! So proud of you! It's great when you finally see results, encouraging even! I absolutely love moving down notches on my belt. Too bad the entire length has notches, I guess I'll never have to buy a smaller one. lol

    I am holding off on buying new clothes for now. I needed the underwear. The ones I was wearing were way way too big. And the same for the belt. The 38 jeans I got from an incentive program at work, 5 pair were free. LOL
    I like my shirts big, so I found some old Larges in the closet and I am wearing them for now.

    I have 3 suits in the closet. I need to have a tailor take them in. I am waiting for that.
