Great NSV

Thanks guys. Makes it all worthwhile doesn't it?! Not that I am finding being on Atkins a chore at all! I haven't even had any cravings.

Only 0.5lb off but size 14 trousers swinging on me now! Yippee!

Mine was last night...... Told by spin instructor I have come on leaps and bounds and that he's well impressed with my strength now!

Yay!! I dream of size 14s swinging off me! In fact, I would be happy to be a size 12-14 at goal. X

Well done on those NSV's, folks!

I like them better than scale victories because they are a physical representation of our progress rather than just a number.

Mine was yesterday when I realised I needed to turn over the waistband of a pair of trousers I haven't worn for a while because my bum and tum don't fill them up so much and they're now hanging on me. Yay!

Can I add one - I am trying on my bikinis for my jollies and I think I look okay or the first time in years. Oh the bottoms are a size 12 too I've dropped 5 clothes sizes.

My other small victory - I gave my kids my Easter eggs, I old never have done that in the past I always ate mine.

Gotta love NSVs

Mine is that I let my hubby take a picture of me in a bikini on hols.....rather a long way from my previous world. Still not planning to show it to anyone

Wow Kat1e! I can't ever imagine being confident enough to wear a bikini. Top, maybe, but with a skirt- down to the ankles! LOL!

My NSV is that today I accidentally went charity shop shopping, and came out with a complete outfit (jacket, t shirt, skirt) in size 16. SIZE 16!?! I tried on a nice size 16 coat and miniskirt, too, but they were slightly too small...booooo! I don't care, I don't think I've fitted into a size 16 ANYTHING since I was what? 15 years old? Something like that. Crikey moses! Almost a year ago to the day I was in St David's, visiting Ramsey Island, in a size 30 dress. I still have it.

Right, I am now going to get a binliner and throw out all my obese-person clothes (except 2 pairs of trousers, which I'm keeping for photos and to remind me- one is size 30, the other size 26...NEVER AGAIN!).

Boggins, you really are an inspiration ... And good on you. Those 16s will be fitting you in no time.
