My very first NSVs!

I've been super frustrated with the scale for the past 3 weeks because that number hasn't been moving. But I just looked in the mirror and realized for the first time in my life that I have a real, honest-to-god neck!! I HAVE A NECK! It's not just extra chins anymore :D I feel like a freaking swan...it's silly, but I am off the wall thrilled. Also, you can see that I have a collar bone!

I've also gone down 3 pant sizes since December, and consequently can now fit into my University's circa 1900's theatre seats!! I can now support my department without bruising my butt! Bonus.

Getting sleeved was the best decision I have ever made.
