There are so many NSV's listed here that I am just jumping for joy

Every one of them is exciting!!!

DD80, my calves DO need to lose weight and your story gives me hope. I am never able to wear boots that come up over the calf. Maybe I will lose calf fat too!!

Awesome.

For me, my diastolic blood pressure has come down!! It was consistently running at 86 and now it is consistently at 78.

Mine is kinda eh...but today I zipped my knee high boots all the way up with no problem!

They are a bit loose around my calf even. They used to zip up most of the way (just a little at the top not zippered), but it was cool to just zip them right up! I mean, I never thought my calves needed to lose weight!

Oh, and a cute little jacket I bought a few months ago that was way too tight is now just fitting. I could stand to lose more weight to fit into it perfectly, but it's so great to be wearing it!

I noticed my "sexy" boots were easier to zip the other day too. And . . . easier to wear 4" heels at work all day than it used to be. That's a great woohoo!

DD80 · 03-20-2012, 09:17 AM

I'm glad I'm not the only one who has some calf weight to drop!

Just testing then?

Marge I am so pleased for you, and all the other great NSVs here today.

Lots of ladies in danger of losing their pants it would seem,

DD80 · 03-20-2012, 12:15 PM

So not only does the jacket fit, but it buttons!

ETA: Sorry that it's such a tiny pic guys....my phone sucks. But you can see it buttons and boots fit!

Of course it's a tiny pic – YOU'RE tiny!

Congrats, you have much to be proud of, so enjoy every minute!

That would be odd, wouldn't it? "Oh, hi, just um....checking in on the computer. Why am I in the bathroom? Uuuummm..."

Luna Loca · 03-20-2012, 03:33 PM

Holy cow, you guys.

I just bought size 14 jeans. And they fit.

I haven't worn size 14 since, I dunno, probably since I got pregnant with my daughter. She'll be 27 this year.

So yeah. :thud:

Thanks! Just in time for Easter!

And thank you Luna!

KathyL · 03-20-2012, 04:16 PM

Cute jacket! Looks great on you.

WTG Luna!

I just got back from the consignment shop where I bought 2 new pairs of pants (since dh said my 'skinny' jeans were looking baggy LOL). And I got size 4. Never in a million years would I have believed I'd ever fit into a 4. I'm just amazed that JUDDD has helped me drop a size without the scale moving, especially now that I've been maintaining for so long.

Luna Loca · 03-20-2012, 04:33 PM

WOW, size 4. That's awesome!

I don't think I'll ever be that tiny! I'll bet you rock those size 4s, too! Amazing.

Size 4?!?! I'll only ever be one in my dreams!

Hey, I was so busy picking on you that I think I missed a huge update in your current weight?? Congrats! You need to treat yourself to something (not necessarily food!!) to celebrate!

He came driving toward me down the street and didn't slow down until I flagged him down. He slammed on the brakes. When I got in the car, he said, "I didn't recognize you! You look so small!!!"

God, I love that man.

I was just reading through the amazing stories on here and read this about your DH not even recognizing you. Is that amazing or what!! You are certainly making fantastic progress.

I noticed that you have over 10,000 posts!!! OMG, that's amazing too!

Thanks, and thanks to everyone who's complimented me on my progress (and who loved my funny story). I wouldn't be doing so well if it weren't for JUDDD and you all.

I've been here at lcf almost ten years now...wow, time flies.

sazzie · 03-21-2012, 10:05 AM

I had a multiple post started and because there were so many of you I wanted to respond to, I decided that I would just give a big KUDOS to each and everyone for all their successes.

Have to say, I'm especially impressed with the healing of the toe fungus.

I think that is huge!!!

The cessation of snoring! Unreal!!! But, believable and most welcome!

Oh, and husbands not recognizing their own wives had me saying.....yeah!!!!
