Feels good, but...
Last night, at the NYE party, a long time friend told me I'm getting too skinny and she's jealous. I'm only halfway to my goal, having lost 25 pounds in the last year, but people have really noticed. I may have weighed less in high school, but even as a synchronized swimmer, I wasn't in as good a shape; I have much more…

NSV after a minor setback
Last night I made fudge and a cheesecake and didn't eat any of it. That was a short lived victory as I had two of the cookies I made this morning. I did go for a run afterwards, and for the first time ran the whole 1.66 miles (usually have to walk part of it). I then took the dog for a short walk, and when he wanted to…

Nearly a NSV

My NSV - bra size.
I discovered that my bra size has changed. I went from a 42C to a 40D to a 38DD. It means while my cup size stayed the same, the fat under the band has gone down an awful lot. When I'm in a swim suit, I don't have the little flaps hanging over the back side straps.

Knots in my back
Anyone know what I can do to work these out? I've had a massage, which helped. I have used a tennis ball and the floor to work on it. I've taken way too many nSAIDs. It's a week along and still hurts and has one giant knot and a few small ones. I know what caused it. My blind dog hurt his neck and was unable to walk. I had…
