Nsv....

I'm proud to announce that I am wearing the same pair of jeans that I wore when I met my husband 7 years ago. I haven't worn them in at least 6 years. They are a size 20, which is still huge, but considering I was in a snug 26, it feels fabulous. The NSV's are so much more rewarding than that number on the scales.

My next goal is to get in a size that I don't have stuffed away in a drawer or closet somewhere. Because that means I get to go shopping!!!

Not sure what my goal size will be. At 5'4" and a goal weight of 150, I would hope to be in a 8 or 10. I won't know how to act to go hunting sizes like that at the store and actually be able to find them. I'm super excited!!!!!

Way to go!

Great job! Congrats and keep up the great work!

That is FANTASTIC!!

congrats!

GOOD FOR YOU, KEEP GOING!!

Isn't it awesome?!? I've been wearing my old 14's that I haven't worn in 10 yrs! I never got rid of them cause I swore I would fit into them again one day. I will be ecstatic when I go down to a 12 and even smaller! Way to go!! It will only get better!

Congratulations !!! Just wait until you go shopping for those jeans in size 8 or 10. On my surgery day a was wearing a size 20 jeans and I'm down to a size 12, last week I went to Macy's looking for those size 12 and I got lost in all the selections that they have in the smaller sizes, I think I got a little overwhelm from all the different kind of jeans that I could choose from. I was used to just go shopping to Lane Bryant. One more size down and I'll be at my goal. :) size 10 !!

What does NSV mean???

Non scale Victory! Feedback that doesn't come from a number on your scale!!

Great news and well done :) keep up the good work !

Not sure what my goal size will be. At 5'4" and a goal weight of 150,

I am 5'3, build solid like a tree trunk.. I am at 180 and can fit comfortably into a size 12-14 now... (down from a 22-24) I am guessing that at my goal of 140 I will be in a size 6-8. Does that help you any?
