Day/Weight/Comment 12/04 221.4 pounds. Just got back from a wonderful vacation and my weight is up a bit. Looking forward to the next ten days of getting back on track. 12/05 214.4 pounds. Either that was a lot of water weight gain from my vacation or my sister's scale weighs differently than mine. Mine is new and recently…

@Birder165 Glad I could help. I chuckled to myself after I posted thinking that my username is Fitby44 and I'm actually 50 now. I would be fit if I hadn't originally told myself I'd be at a healthy weight by x date and just used this new strategy. Ah well. Before it was all or nothing thinking. I kept thinking, "At some…

Sorry about your grandpa. Awesome about staying out of the treats.

NSV is getting back to this thread after falling off the wagon. :) Posting on the NSV thread has become an NSV. Thanks to you all for the inspiration to get back at it. Also, I've just recently realized that when I am having an overwhelming craving (which happens only about once a month now, the day before I get my…

Congratulations! This is one of my goals for Labour Day, so thanks for the inspiration. :smiley:

I could cycle up a hill I've never been able to manage before now. :smile: I love that I'm getting stronger.
-
Fantastic! I can't wait to get there. :)

I love this. Getting over our fears is one of the best things we can do for ourselves which reminds me of my recent NSV. I love cycling but hate pain and have always been afraid of wiping out. I've fallen off my bike twice before, but didn't get too hurt. A week ago I wiped out pretty bad. Luckily I had a helmet on, but I…

Hello all! Good for you on staying on track last night, Megan. Congrats on the great week, Brittany. I try to drink only water and tea unless it's my cheat meal and then I will allow myself a boozy drink once a week. Sorry to hear about the pre-diabetes, Giselle. I am actually following the Insulin Resistance Diet to avoid…

Congratulations! I fell off the wagon shortly after you started, so your story is extra inspirational for me. :)

Thanks for starting this group, Z! My eating was horrible on the weekend. I gave into the "birthday" excuse which is hilarious since I generally don't make a big deal about my birthday, but if it gave me a an excuse to overeat, I took it. :blush: Anyway, my overall goal is to land somewhere between 140 and 150 pounds.…

I'm 5'4" and looking to lose about 60 more pounds. I've lost 15 since the end of May.

Woohooo! Happy Birthday to me! I'm down another inch and a half in the waist, and can button the "test pants" for my personal challenge. I couldn't get those pants over my hips in June and I'm hoping to wear them on Labour Day. On my way there!

ha ha Screw the scale! And good for you. :smile:

That's awesome. I was glad that I could ride the rollercoasters with my son because the year before last, I was too big. I can cycle faster and farther than even a few months ago. So happy about that. Can pull down my size 16 pants without undoing them. I am able to not want to eat the snacks I bought for my teenage son…

For the first time, I cycled the 50 hilly kilometers from Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island to the campground where I spend the summer. My friends thought I was nuts and wanted to rescue me, but I lived. Also, I got really excited to find a big bag of fresh spinach in the local store. I never used to get excited about…

Got so busy at work today that I couldn't go out for a colleague's good bye lunch and had nothing to eat. I avoided the vending machine of death and local pizzeria, and waited until I got home to eat a late lunch. There have been times when I thought I might die if I didn't eat every 3 hours. Not anymore.

Congratulations!!!!
-
Hooray! Good for you!!!

Walking past the sweets several times is awesome! I did that yesterday too with donuts. I love donuts. LOVE. And despite two stressful days at work, I didn't eat my feelings but cycled really hard instead. I'm 46 and just blew by the younger people on the cycling path.

Congratulations! Thank you so much for sharing your experiences.

Excellent! When my co-workers are amazed at how far I can cycle, I tell them that getting the strength and stamina doesn't really take long to build. I should show them your post, so that they can see it's not just me. My NSV is a small one but is really mentally huge for me. For the first time in my life, I am drinking my…
