NON SCALE VICTORIES!!

[kellmo]

Ok, So I pinched this from Dukan thread who originally pinched it from SW thread!
It's all about those little/major things that prove you're losing weight and inches but don't involve scales. Let's keep it going, it's rally inspiring and fun to read....

Here are some of mine so far...

1- fitting into all my summer clothes including a gorgeous black fitted maxi dress from monsoon - size 14!!

2- having a bath and my bum bones (!) were touching the bottom of the bath

3 - my daughter wrapping her legs all the way around my waist when I pick her up!

4 - don't have to resort to wearing leggings as other trousers now fit!

5 - bras too big around my back

6 - catching sight of my reflection in a towel and looking the slimmest I'd looked in AGES!

Now, tell us yours x x

Going for a bra fitting without being too embarrased to let the assistant see my flabby upper half (and then unfortunately finding you're now a 30E and still have to pay out for expensive bras - but hey, at least I've still got a chest!)

Popping into clothes shops and just whirling around picking up anything I like the look of without worrying how it will look on my figure and whether the larger sizes look shapeless compared to the 8s and 10s.

A person I got chatting to in a queue telling me I had a gorgeous figure and that "You're so lucky being naturally slim - I've been contending with all this flab for years". Well, of course I had to mention S&S to her!

Worrying about whether the camera caught me at a good angle rather than feeling fat and that I have no good angles (certainly no angles at all!).

More colour in my wardrobe - out with the 'slimming' blacks!

Feeling more confident about taking my clothes off around the bf... ahem

Getting back into rowing!!!!!!

My personal non scale victory. My well worn belt has measured my weight loss. I was on the last hole, the end where my thumb is, and today have had to have 2 new holes punched, and have it on the tightest.

Haha - I know where you're coming from Deezer! I bought all these cheap summer clothes when I thought summer was about to start - now the sun is actually out they're all too big... and I can't say I'm too sad over it

Having to look out my old work clothes that i've not worn in about 5 years because everything else i have is hanging off me

Finally being able to wear all of the PJ's ive been saving up for the past few christmas's as i was refusing to take them back as i would fit into them after i go on my next diet!
