NSV - getting under my desk
I was bending over to plug in something under my desk when it suddenly hit me that "Hey, I can bend over to plug in something under my desk!" That used to be a huge issue for me - I mean, I could do it, but it was awkward and uncomfortable to get under there and I was always so worried I'd end up flat on my back on the floor or worse. But nope, now I can easily crouch down and reach all the way back to get to that plug and then stand right back up.
I hope no one asks me why I have this silly grin on my face because I don't think I could explain it to anyone but you guys!!

 I remember this one. I was always afraid I'd fall over and bonk my head. I'm so happy for you that you don't have to worry anymore.

I remember the first time I was able to cross my legs under my desk where they actually fit! Good times!

These are the best victories, aren't they? I love how it just happens out of the blue -- often when I'm really needing some encouragement.
FANTASTIC! I'm so happy for you!!!!

Yeah! Life has gotten easier, hasn't it? I find that being able to do the everyday things that may seem small is a huge reward for the effort of losing weight.

That's an NSV I'd never think of, but you're totally right - my balance improve along wi my flexibility when my big gut shrank a bit

I love it!! Those are the best NSV's because they sneak up on you out of nowhere. Everything in life that was once hard has slipped into a distant memory.
