Holiday NSV's! (Non-Scale Victories)



Recommended Posts

My mom gave me a fitted v-neck sweater for Christmas. When I saw that it was a 1X, I thought "I will not be able to wear this". Oh...and it has horizontal stripes, which I thought I'd never wear again.

I'm wearing it today!!!!! It fits! And, I must say I think I look pretty darned HOT! :tongue2:

Congratulations!

My holiday NSV is that I was able to finally zip up tall boots. Never been able to wear them because calves were too big.Tried on a pair and they zipped!! So I bought two pair.

Then, as if that wasn't enough, a few days later I bought a pair of short red ones with a very pointy toe and skinny heel. That was a first too. The old me would have broken that heel in 2 minutes and would never made a step in them. I wore them to a party with a pair of jeans and made it the entire night plus walked around in Walmart with them-just because I could. :tongue2:

The best holiday NSV for me was the baking and eating a "normal" amount of treats without craving more. This has NEVER happened during the holidays. I was satisfied with one little piece of whatever a day. Years past I would be shoving things in all day long for two weeks and feeling sick...physically and emotionally.

Another NSV...the after Christmas sales. Could walk in a store and just pick out small tops and size 4 pants (pants I needed to try on cuz I have a 34' inseam). My closet loves being full again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
