Default Wow - 4 NSV's !

I have slipped a disc in my back "ouch" so have spent some time back and forth to the doctors. Whilst there the doctor asked me how I had managed to lose weight. She was very impressed and said I looked "wonderful" (NSV #1). I then said I had been experiencing some peri- menopausal symptoms and that I wanted my bloods checking. She agreed and took my blood pressure before taking blood- the results were 110/70 (NSV #2). Previously my BP was always high.
The results have since come back and the doctor told me to, and I quote "Open a bottle of champagne , because they were some of the best results she had seen" (NSV #3)
I have been seeing a physiotherapist for my back - he says I have amazing hipbones (NSV #4)
I knew my weight was lower, that my clothing was smaller- but it is a real boost to see that my weight loss has had a recognisable effect on my overall health.
If ever there was a reason to continue - this is it.
To anyone who has doubts, or who is wavering during the holiday season - keep this in mind- weight loss can truly have stunning results.

Thanks
I thought I ought to add, that at my highest weight I avoided doctors like the plague, as the tendency to blame even a cold on my weight, seemed just too tempting for the doctors here......

These are wonderful NSV's. It's so nice when your hard work is noticed by your doctor and makes so many wonderful positive differences in your life.

Sorry about your back. Take care now.
