NSV - no more high blood pressure!
Had my annual with my doc on Friday and she was blown away! Without medication, my bp was 110/70...I haven't been this healthy in over 10 years and she took me off the blood pressure medication I've been taking for years! She actually even told me to slow down and take some more time to lose the last 10-15 lbs, rather than…

NSV - Buying new clothes
First time posting here, as I'm still in process...I started back up with MFP in early December, then 30DS when I plateaued in mid-April. While on vacation last week, I hesitantly purchased a new pair of 36" waist shorts. I say hesitantly, as my pants and shorts have been 40" waist for almost 3 years now. Not only did the…
