NSV on a plane
I flew interstate for work today. For the first time ever I could SEE where to plug in my earphones but even better yet, I got to tighten my seatbelt instead of pulling it hard to squeeze around me!

NSV - I've got...
...tan lines from exercising outdoors! I use sunscreen regularly but my arms and legs are still changing color. Yay!

NSV in the office
My boss is a woman who always dresses well. We were chatting about a wedding I have coming up and what I would wear now that I have lost so much weight. I have bought some new clothes but am holding off on getting to much until I reach my goal. Today she brought in one of her favorite outfits and invited me to borrow it.…

106lb with pix
I have lost 106lb in seven months and, although I knew I was fat and unhealthy, I didn't realise just how much I had changed until I saw this second picture below! The first was taken at a wedding in February which was shown on television. The second was taken at a convention this month.

Double cycling NSV - one for me, one for him
This morning my dear hubby and I cycled to our next town and back, a round trip of 16km. My NSV was being able to wear a cyclist's jersey for the first time, and it wasn't even tight! His NSV was making it all the way there and back without stopping and then saying, "That's getting easier every time. I'm not even aching."…

Dreamt I was running....
Last night I dreamt that I was running! This is a big deal cos I don't run but have been thinking recently that perhaps it was time to try. I've lost 100lb and can dance all night without my knees aching all the next day (still learning to deal with vertigo on the dance floor but that's another story!) Only problem is that…

I had to adjust the armband and make it smaller! :laugh:

NSV - new clothes for summer
It's warming up downunder and I literally have nothing to wear so I went shopping. My plan was to get some shorts for walking and a pair of 3/4 paints for casual. But Miller's had a number of sale racks so I tried on a few extras. Six months ago size 26 was tight. Today I bought two pairs of shorts and one pair of 3/4…

BMR - MFP vs Bodymedia Fit
MFP calculates my BMR as 1,719 calories per day. I wear my Bodymedia Fit about 23 hours a day so I took a reading of calories burned while I was asleep - 1.3 calories per minute. That calculates out to 1,872 calories per day if I was just to lie in bed for 24 hours. That's pretty close for MFP which is working off my…

Working out with vertigo
I've just been diagnosed with vertigo and would really appreciate some tips for working out with vertigo. I love to go for long, hard (for me) bike rides, usually on my own, but am scared of having an attack and falling off. I also love rock and roll dancing but that has lots of spinning, which is also pretty rough with…

NSV at work
For the third time this week we had cake at morning tea time to celebrate an achievement. My work mates have noticed my weight loss and been generally supportive, but for the first time today, the person who was serving the cake out went to offer me a piece but stopped herself and said, "You don't a piece, do you?" She…

Is that really me in the mirror?
I caught sight of myself in a full length mirror last night and was blown away to see just how much of my butt and belly have disappeared! Wow, what a pleasant surprise. Sure, I've still got a way to go, but it was so encouraging to see how far I've come.

I'm wearing.....
a belt! I bought a belt in a regular size and now I'm wearing it.

NSV - work suit
Today I had to go to a meeting with my boss so I decided to try on a suit I haven't worn for the better part of four years. Not only did it fit, but the slacks were even a bit loose!
