My first NSV!

So I'm one of those people that has /never/ felt good about themselves in clothing. No exceptions. I'd break down crying in clothing stores because I hated so much how I looked. Today, while shopping for new workout clothes, I decided to try on some denim shorts (because I've never tried them on in my life) and a cute shirt I saw. This was just for giggles. I didn't think I'd actually like the way I looked. Boy, was I surprised. I almost started crying out of happiness. :D I ended up actually buying both of them. This NSV made my entire week.

Those shorts were even a size 7, which is new for me. haha. But yeah. I know I still have a ways to go. But I'm extremely happy with the progress I've made since last August (was 159 then and 137 now). Just thought I should share with all of you. :]

EDIT: Also, I apologize for not having a before picture. haha. Needless to say, I didn't like having pictures of me taken at my highest weight.
