Today I had a great NSV. After starting slimming world 1 year ago at 19 1/2 stone and very unfit I feel like I've turned my life around. Today I ran the Bristol 10k. I finished in 1 hour 25 mins and feel so proud of myself.
I still have 3 stone to go to get to target but today was a good day.

I think they do it because it looks more impressive
3Kg is a little less than half a stone, but a sticker with 3 on it looks more impressive than one with 1/2 on it.
Mine would be a 51kg sticker rather than an 8.
Sent from my iPod touch using MiniMins
The are indeed kilo awards and as far as I know, not intended to 'look more impressive'
I do SW on-line and they are the awards I got posted on my page
It was only after I got my first one and was trying to find out how to add it to my signature that I realised you all use stones ones on here
But hey, who really cares

OMG. Ellebear, I've just seen your new photo and you look absolutely stunning. Wow.
Sarahc - I know exactly how you feel. I did the same today (just a little slower than you - just under 1hr 30mins) and felt really quite emotional about how far I've come.
Keep posting everyone. These are great to read

Brought the coach to 10k app and worked through that. I started in Jan but could of done more training as towards the end I was only going out once a week. I go to the gym 2 or 3 times a week too but again could have done more in the few months. Works been too busy lately. It's good to have someone to go with and music really helps.
I'm gonna sign up again next year and plan to run the whole way.

Yeah not sure I would of seen u from all the way down here lol. I did run most of it but my hips started hurting which made it difficult.
It was really flat which was good, just one small hill.
Well done to u, it takes quite a lot of guts to do it. I didn't think about all the people watching and then when I got there I was really worried, still feel a size 26 even though I'm a 16 now. my minds not caught up yet.

I had having a 'fat' mentality. I got told off in the bridal shop for having one. They said i need to stop telling myself nothing will fit. It will. I got a little emotional.
It will happen one day and you will be like 'bye bye fat thoughts'
Promise.

Sarah you are not alone in that. We are pretty similar actually - I started at size 24, now 14-16. It just doesn't seem right ! I keep thinking that when I go into shops they will look at me and say, sorry we won't have anything that fits you in here. Eeeek. Well done though - fantastic achievement.
Ellebear - I can't get over the newest picture of you (sorry, I know I've already commented on it but I can't help commenting again !). You just look absolutely amazing

Losin the baby weight :-)
I am not sure if this counts as a NSV or a complete insult but I took it in the spirit it was intended!......
We went away last week with a few friends I haven't seen since Christmas:
My friend: "Wow, Kat you look fab have you lost weight?
Me: "Yes nearly 2 stone"
Friend: "Well you were getting a bit chunky to be fair so well done for sorting yourself out!"
The friend in question was a boy and is known for his honesty so I gave him a punch in the arm and said thank you at the same time!.......
