Non Scale Victories - NSV - post em here!

My daughter climbs through the front seat from the back seat - normally when we are in our driveway she comes out my side because of the BEEEEEEES that are always in the flowers on her side. She had to run into the house to get our rolling cart for the groceries, and I was pooped and didn't want to get out - I just wanted her to use the other door. She was able to climb over me relatively easily (with a hug and a kiss on her way over). We were both giggling like ninnies that there is enough room to do that without honking the horn.

Ever wonder whose clothes those are that you are taking out of the dryer? Are they your daughters'? Nope!!! They are YOURS! Gosh! They're so small!

I am a little late on this one, in May I went to the Orlando with a bunch of people from my church. The anticipation to put on my seatbelt was crazy...finally I put it on and not only did I not need an extender belt, I had to tighten the belt. Needless to say I sat in my seat and cried.

Recent NSV - My winter coat is an Xl Liz Claiborne instead of a size 28 lane Bryant .

Today I wore a sweater my daughter gave me 4 years ago for Christmas. It didn't fir -- waaayyy too tight. Today it was quite loose. Another teacher (that I don't really know) said that it was too big for me and I needed to go shopping at the Loft for sweaters. I said "not yet -- I'm trying to lose weight." She said "You don't have any weight to lose" -- I was standing next to another sleever from my department and we both cracked up!
First time I've heard that in, oh, about a century. We decided to bring in our fat pictures for comparison.

Recent Non-Scale victories for me
1. Sitting in a flimsy rental chair at a wedding reception and not having to worry about it breaking.
2. Working on my own car while sitting on the floor or squatting and being able to get up without having to grab onto something.
3. Buying clothes in a non big and tall store.
4. Having to deal with Jealousy from my GF now that I get so much more attention from the ladies. Hehe
5. Not being tired all the time and having energy at night even after working a 10 hour work day.

Loving all the NSVs! That's why we do this, it's less to do with the scale than these moments

Wearing my jeans to work and having people notice my weight loss!!!

[pack89]

The look on the P.A's face when she saw my weight-loss as compared to last year's weight. It was awesome to see here have to move that weight off of the 200 to the 150!! Plus I got to tell the 180's...SEE YA!!

This happened a long time ago but it was my daughter best NSV. We went shopping for new jeans for her and she took 2 pair of different sizes into the dressing room. She came out crying and I went to see what was wrong, and she said between her tears they are both too big. I was crying too as we looked for smaller sizes. Yeah for happy tears.

Well, it's OFFICIAL!! I have LOST my 9YO and I now WEIGH LESS THAN MY 16YO SON!! That is just mind-boggling! Right now my 9yo daughter is sitting on my lap, she weighs 73 pounds, and I'm just thinking Holy Cow! She's heavy! Wait!! I've lost 75#! That's more than her!! TOTALLY AMAZING!! Slow and Steady, but loving my sleeve!!

I have one that I'm so excited about.
My knee has been so horrible for about 3 years now, I couldn't step up, or step down at all without excruciating pain. Light bulb in the laundry room went out and I argued with myself for two weeks. Why yes I did get up on a kitchen chair and change that silly thing without having to ask for help from anyone - (or breaking the antique chair, or even thinking about it not holding me!) I didn't have to argue with myself about "come on, it's just a step down to the step stool and one more step down" it was just natural again.

My most noticable NSV to date has been being able to wear belts and not have them totally disappear into my folds. It feels good to finally have a waist line!
