What Does Nsv Stand For?

Hey gang!

I get that an NSV is a milestone, or compliment, but I can't figure out what it stands for. Help a brother out!

Non scale Victory

Ahhhh!

Thanks for asking! I've been wondering the same thing!

Sorry guys, Im new to this. What does Non-scale Victory mean??? Is that like a clothes or measurement acheivement??

hi i have never heard of it either but i walked 9 holes golf friday arvo so i guess that was a nsv

NSV is any accomplishment or victory that you've achieved that doesn't include a scale. It could be a smaller clothing size, someone paid you a compliment about your weight loss, fitting to an airplane seat or another seat, crossing your legs, etc. anything that maybe you wouldn't or couldn't do before.

It's a victory to be celebrated even if the scale isn't moving (or if it's not moving enough or the right way!)

Celebrate every little thing and be proud of what you've accomplished. It's the little things that add up to big success.

:)

Walking for 9 holes of Golf is one for sure.

A lot of times we get worried when we don't see the scale move. That doesn't mean that your not losing ! You start losing inches. That can be a bigger victory then the scale.

Like Kitty said, cloths sizes go down, so you are smaller, fitting in a Restaurant Booth, or Theater Seat, Getting complimented from someone on your weight Loss, Crossing your Legs. All these and more, that does not pertain to the scale is a NSV. Celebrate them all....
