    I finally went to the jewelers and had two links taken out of each of my watches. Who knew I had such fat wrists?!?

    I donated eight shopping carts of clothing to Goodwill.
    Not bags - CARTS.

    Hi everyone! I really enjoy reading about everyone's victories! Thanks for sharing. My NSV happened on New Year's Eve. We had some friends over and we decided to go sliding. Not only could I fit in the plastic sled, but I was able to walk up the hill without slowing down or huffing and puffing! What a great feeling!

    Hmmm, current nsv, not gaining over the thanksgiving holiday. I mean I don’t cook for thanksgiving but still. My weight has been stalling like crazy but my measurements are still shrinking. I was able to fit into a size 14 pair of jeans earlier in the month. Impossible!

    Other nsv, my new obsession with actually trying on clothes lol. Was always afraid to because things didn’t fit and I’d be disappointed. Not the case anymore!

    Nice loss! Keep fighting the good fight! I’m starting to wonder if the intolerance for tuna is common? My new tummy can’t handle it either. Also the eggs don’t agree with me either

    Don't compare yourself to others...
    And not just about weight loss
    But sure it's *possible*, it will depend on so many factors that you just can't anticipate. But set/smash goals and never ever ever sell yourself short ❤

    Went out to lunch with an old colleague who moved to a different office - partway through the meal she put down her fork and said “Okay, I gotta ask - how is it that you look five years younger than when we worked together three years ago?”

    I put on my favorite pendant and it hit just the right spot without adding a chain extender. My fat monster neck is shrinking!

    I just saw a picture of myself, posted on FB, that was taken a few days ago at our annual CousinsReunion. I don't hate myself, I don't look awful; I look like a normal human being. I'm in tears.

    Similar to towels fitting comfortably ...
    Hotel robes - Not only do they fit, but they have plenty of extra room to wrap around me!

    This is my favorite thread. I love reading about everyone’s non scale victories. Today, I was leaving the gym and accidentally closed the door on the person behind me. I turned around to apologize and it was a guy I used to work with and hadn’t seen since before surgery (March 2018). I smiled, called him by name and asked him how he was. He didn’t recognize me. He said “I think I know you. I know your voice, anyway”. We had a great chat. It was very cool.

    I had surgery May 18th of this year and I still find it unbelievable that I can go and get close in a non plus size section!! Blood pressure issues are gone, no more sleep apnea can work out with weights and the elliptical!! I will be 50 my birthday and I feel better than I have since I was 30!!
