NSV's are a fantastic idea!!! (My scale and I aren't talking right now - it's been saying the exact same thing for the last 2 weeks)

May:
1. Clients yesterday, who happen to be a lovely little elderly couple, went on and on about how I should be a model. When i said a model would typically be half my size they raved about how they're looking for good looking "healthy" bodies.
2. Broke out a bikini I bought just because it was on sale ($5 Reebok!) that I've never worn because it's itsy-bitsy and the hubby raved how it fit perfectly and my other ones are all looking like they're getting too big.
.......... and I believed him!

woo hoo!

Went shopping yesterday to find new black pants for work, and I am a true size 7 (in about 95% of stores..there's maybe a few stores where their sizes run so small that I have to squeeze into a size 7 but I blame it on the store ). I went into Rickis yesterday for the heck of it (never shop in there), and I found these black pants for $29.99 on sale from $50. The lady goes, "what size are you?" I tell her a size 7, and she goes, "we only go in even sizes." So she gave me a size 6 tall and they fit! AND they were very loose in the back so I'll need a belt (we have to wear them to work anyway but still..). Normally I'm more on the 7/8 then a 6/7. So that was a huge victory for me. I'm now closer to a size 5 then I am to a size 8.

I've finally made the drop from size 16 to size 14.

My mom complimented me on losing weight, saying she could see I was smaller in the face, my arms (which I carry a lot of fat, the toning dvd is working!), around my stomach (I have a huge gut but it is getting smaller) and that my clothes feel better. My family tends to be very critical of how I look so it was great that my mom is noticing that I'm losing weight.

1. My bf made a pan cake for breakfast yesterday, which I had not even half and was full... He was sad about it, I told him I felt guilty for not eating. And we ended up having an argument. HAHA...He IS very supportive of my weight loss but I guess he was sad that I didn't even eat half. :P
2. I went to a lunch with my friend yesterday and she ordered french fries, which I kinda wanted to but didn't have any. I didn't even touch any and was very proud of myself by the time we left the restaurant. =)

i just got through a day at the theme park, a birthday, and a really nice seafood meal in the last 3 days and was able to not overeat!

and my clothes are definitely fitting better...dare i say getting loose?

My NSV is to wear a cute top my sister bought me a month ago its just a little tight hopefully it will happen

I had bought a pair of cargo-ish pants at Old Navy a few months ago when they were on clearance. Size 20, but I didn't try them on because my son was with me (and, well, he's not exactly patient! He's almost 2...). When I tried them on at home they were way too snug across the hips but I decided to keep them because I KNEW I'd fit into them soon... I just remembered them today and dug them out and tried them back on and they are WAY TOO BIG now! Kinda sucky that I never got to wear them, but oh well! Time to dig out the receipt and return them... YAY!!

My boss's boss complimented me and said, Wow, you've lost a lot of weight! YAY! Someone noticed!

My promise ring is now too big and almost falling off my finger..which is okay because my boyfriend and I went engagement ring shopping this past weekend!

Nothing too much to report sadly. Other than I can see my belly getting smaller again. And I biked 10 miles in the past two days. Hopefully more will come next month.

Yay! I love these threads.

I've had a few these last few weeks. Umm...second week of May I ran sprints at 12.0mph on the treadmill for 15sec and when I tried to go to 12.5mph it told me the treadmill didn't go past 12. So...basically, I beat the treadmill.

And then on the weekend my mum said all my pants looked too big but I was convinced there was absolutely no way I was a size 12. And then, of course, I was tempted to find out how close I was to fitting into a 12 and I found some pants in the back of my closet and low and behold they fit fine. So then I went to buy new jeans and they are indeed a 12. Hahaha. I guess mom's know best. I have such a problem seeing the weight loss in my lower body so that kinda put things in perspective.
