NSVs - Non Scale Victories

[beatyourgreens]

Last nights NSV - I'm not the sort of person who normally has 'skinny dresses to slim into' or anything like that, but I bought a size 16 dress from Tesco (which is absolutely GORGEOUS) about 2 months ago before I started the plan. I could get it on, but the zip was NOT going up..and I just looked yucky and bloated.

Tried on the dress after 5 weeks on plan (I've lost 11 pounds now) and I can zip it up..to the top! Just a couple more pounds and it'll fit fantastically.. it's so lovely!!

SLIMMING WORLD is amazing!! (Just another 3 and a half stone to go now eh?!!)

I love this thread, it's so positive and inspiring

Thrown out my L sized swimshorts and purchased a 2nd pair in M. Never going back.

Changed my WI outfit from XL bottoms to M bottoms and didn't feel uncomfortable wearing them.

Noticed that my belly looks smaller visibly and my manlyness appears bigger lmao, too much info!

LOL that's fantastic!!! Thankyou - this post really made my day hahaha!

Lots of love, Caramelle X X X

Stopped checking my swimshorts every 5 mins to see if they'd split!

Whatever, you were just checking out the size of your tackle

the size 18 trousers that i had to buy cos my 20's were falling off are starting to get baggy
i seem to be veering towards a stone equalling a dress size - on the bottom half anyway, only just going down a size at the top

love this thread some fantastic NSV's

Went into my favourite cafe today and instead of getting what I always got (chicken and ham pie with chips and coleslaw) I got a gorgeous big salad with grilled chicken and it was amazing. Enjoyed it more than I did the pie =D
They were asking me too "Are you SURE you dont want pie or lasagne??" And were all shocked when I insisted on just salad.
Saved a few pennies too =D

I bought 2 dresses yesterday (in size 14 might I add!) and was really pleasantly surprised as I would never have gone for these styles before! They wouldn't have flattered me at all and I actually think I look rather good in them! (Not good enough to put photos of myself in them on here but I've attached links to the dresses instead!!) One is from H & M and the other is from Next! I'm loving clothes so much I'm getting dangerous!!X

Dress 1) http://shop.hm.com/gb/shoppingwindow?dept=DAM_KLAKJ_KLA&shoptype=S#

Dress 2) Buy Zip Front Denim Dress from the Next UK online shop

Grrrww dress 1 from H & M will only take you to the general dresses- if you are interested (which I very much doubt lol!!) it's on page 2 and it's the button through shirt style dress shown in khaki but mine's in black!X

I'm in a size 10 now!!!!

I started in Jan as an 18 and am now slim enough to shop in skinny people shops!

Your post has inspired me i can't wait to be able to say "I've gone from an 18 to a 10" :thankyou:

I wore a jumper dress out last night (this was an NSV in itself as I haven't worn a dress since I was about 8! ) and was told by three different men that I had a sexy pair of legs! Bless them though, they were all in their 50s and 60s...I told them they should have gone to Specsavers! It was lovely to hear though! xxx

Size 18 skinny jumper too big in Asda today ! - size 16 same skinny jumper just a little too tight - BUT I GOT IT ON AND COULD HAVE WORN IT - if I was brave.

But hey ho - I was a size 20 - 22.

I bought a dress in Oasis today. It was a large and jersey material but still, I have never been able to shop in such a place.

I tried on a fitted size 16 dress there too but the top wouldn't zip up - had just had my boobs measured in Bravissiomo and bought a 34hh bra so they have shrunk, but clearly by not enough to fit in a shop for slim people.

So, tomorrow I will be wearing an Oasis dress. Fantastic.

My C said she could really tell the difference in me now. 1st 9lbs lost.
And wore my size 16 FCUK dress and look fabulous and skinny(er) even if I do say so myself! x
