NSV's - jogging, collarbones and <35"

  • I've been waiting the few weeks to post some of my NSV's here together - and now seems like a good time.

    1. The 2x I've gone walking this past week (minor victory in itself, my motivation was on life-support ) have included significant jogging intervals. They weren't my idea - so I can't take all the credit. My evil best friend worked us almost to death Tuesday night - to vent some frustration. Then last night, we had to skip the track and walk in the village. We spent half the time running away from scary drunks , stalking perverts and lame guys trying to get lucky

    But - it's the first time I really ever jogged a mile, and it felt good. I have to be careful 'cause of my bad knees - but so far, so good.

    2. My waist is now less than 35" (just barely) . That was one of my milestones as set by the health and fitness recommendation guidelines. My next related goal is to get my waist:hip ratio to .70, it's currently .723

    3. My collarbones have arrived! They've been showing up more and more often these past few months, but now they are visible without strange poses or obtuse mood lighting . I can't keep my hands off them - can you bruise a bone by tapping it too much?

    I may have more to post later - since I'm expecting a loss this week. But at least I can be proud of what I have already!

  • If you could bruise collarbones, mine would be black and blue, I touch them so much (I also adore touching a little hollow place on the side of my wrist and my shoulderblade). Seeing the bones start to show was the most amazing thing, like the fat tide was rolling out and beautiful bones like seashells are left revealed.

    Congratulations on all of your wondertful NSVs!
  • Congrats!!!!
    Thats wonderful! I keep checking mine everyday to see if they have popped out yet
  • Congrats...the bones I notice the most are my hip bones when I lay down. It's pretty cool.
  • Cardiomonster, congrats on your success. I have found myself touching my collar bone a lot lately too. Seems like I just can't keep my hands off.

    What a beautiful analogy, Glory!
