I was telling DH this story tonight and DS corrected me, He said that I am 81.1% toward being hot. HE is too funny.

Ok I finally had a NSV. We have horses but I normally do not ride. I always felt sorry for the horses having to haul my fat butt around. Anyways even when I did ride I couldn't get myself up on the saddle. Either someone had to help me (my hubs pushing my butt up there) or I had to get a chair and hope the horse did not move while I was halfway up. So my hubs got the horses saddled up and said c'mon we are riding. He got a chair for me but before he could even get it to me I had swung my leg up and over and Voila, I was up. I got up so fast, in fact, that I almost went all the way over, lol. I guess I thought I needed to get the old me up and I am the newer me. It was a great feeling and we had a great ride. Yeah me!!

do you all get the giggles sometimes with this band thing??
i had an extreme workout today with my husband & trainer - JUST off the hook nuts....as i was walking out of the gym *and had to change my shirt cause it was SOAKED*, some member told me - "that's the way one should look after a good workout" - well i was PURPLE. not red "faced" not my natural italian glow - PURPLE.
we walked to the truck and hubby said your shoes were moving during our run and your shorts are sagging.
NOW - i got an ass for days .. we literally went across the street to DICKS (love that name...LOL) sporting good and got new workout clothes.
i went from a 8 1/2 to 7 1/2 running shoe - XL - Medium shorts...and well still have the girls...so still a LG up top. OMG he spend $400 on me today on workout gear and well if it weren't for the TOM i'd make his night...LOL
ya'll are very special and i appreciate every post.

Whooo Hoooo! Now that's what I call an NSV!! A $400 one to be exact. Sounds you have a wonderful hubby!

I have a new NSV. I officially wiegh less than my DH! I've weighed more than him for 10 years now. Feels great!!

I also bought some size 18 jeans today! I know that's still "plus sized" but I started out wearing very very tight 28/30's. (28/30 was as high as most places carry clothes around here, so I had to sqeeze in, lol). 30/32 was probably closer to my real size.

One more, then I promise I'm done, lol. Sunday was my 1 year Bandiversary and I made my goal of losing 100 lbs in one year!

How is everyone else? Any new NSV's to share????

renewedhope · 09-22-2008, 04:05 PM

Georgia, so glad to see you posting those NSV!!! You are doing awesome. I had to celebrate the day I weighed less than DH. That hadn't happened since high school!!
