    Ok, I'll show my ignorance and go ahead and ask... what does "nsv" stand for? :blushing:
    And I don't think that's a small thing at all! I was sitting in the chair in my living room today and thinking to myself I'll sure be glad when I can sit in a chair and it not look like I'm half reclining just because I'm so fat I can't sit back all the way in the chair! Anyone else know what I'm talking about?

    That is NOTHING to be embarrassed about! Any victory, no matter how small, is STILL a victory! Congrats and keep up the good work!

    I definatly know what you mean. There was a time i could not put my leg over another leg to put on my socks. I had to put my feet on a chair. Now i can bend my legs and put on my socks. I think all these little steps keep us going.This nsv is the first of many. Today i went to get dressed and saw this pair of brown pants in my closet and thought hmm lets see if they fit. They did they are a 22, I was wearing a 26. My 24's were getting lose so it figures .

    Great NSV (non-scale victory)! I wouldn't laugh at all.. My first NSV was not struggling to do the (reach around) technique in the bathroom. LOL if ya know what I mean. Little things like that can be bigger victories than the scale because you actually feel the changes in those little achievements. When things used to be a struggle and no longer are, thats when you know how much healthier you are becoming! Great Job, keep it up!

    I hear ya.... when I first clued in that I was crossing my legs more and not getting uncomfortable... that got me excited. :)

    My uncle use to tell us to cut your toenails over the toilet so you flush the cut off parts down the drain. Just an FYI!

    That's wonderful! I reached the point during my last pregnancy where I could no longer reach my feet (and I didn't get to that point at all during my first pregnancy), and my feet were so swollen that I could only wear flip flops, so my toes needed to be done, and I had to go get a professional pedicure. I was still like that for a while after the baby was born. He's now 10.5 months old and I'm able to cut and paint my own toes again. You are doing wonderfully! Keep up the good work.
