NSV (Non Scale Victory) Read me Read me!

Hello Ladies and Gents,

How many of us have bought a pair of trousers that you have not tried on first??? My trousers that I did not try on came from Ebay, I bought them for work but they were beyond tight so I relegated them to the back of the wardrobe! I tried them on now and again but they never fitted and then I really starting putting on weight. Any way it’s near laundry day and all my regular trousers are getting a bit big, pulls out the abandoned trousers and low and behold they fit perfectly! SCORE!

Now wearing said trousers! Whoop Whoop!

Hope you are all having a good day!

I was typeing on a computer yesterday and somone came behind me and started saying some weird crap. I turned around and the person was shocked becuase she thought I was her boss.

Her boss is like 50lbs lighter then me. :lol:

I had a similar NSV last week, KiKi. I have a pile of pants in the back of my closet that are various sizes from 22-26 that I have pushed to the back as my weight went up. I noticed in the grocery store one day last week that I was "sagging" (as the kids say) and the only thing keeping my size 26 pants from hitting the floor was my hips. So when I got home, I started pulling out the 24s and they fit comfortably!! All the 26s are now in the Good Will bag!

Yes they are great aren't they! I mean with pounds it could be because you're dehydrated or went to the bathroom or whatever, but putting on a pair of trousers you couldn't breathe in before is awesome!

I can't wait for more of those. I feel like I am going back in time with my weight. Right now I am where I was around my son's 1st b-day. My next goal is my weight before I got pregnant. Eventually I will make my way to my size 12 jeans (lucky me thin at a 12!) and I will be back to where I was happy. And hopefully this time it will stay off like it didn't when I did Jenny Craig and lived in the gym.
