Random NSV catch-up

I had a "bad" loss last week, only -1.6, which I know is dreamy to most people, but I have been having such a great rate of weight loss that this smaller loss makes me feel funny.  Add that to a change in my thyroid meds (it looks like I have been taking too much since January, which probably accounts for the higher rate of loss, and now that it has been adjusted, my losses will probably be smaller from here out BOO).

So, with that in mind and as a way to keep me on track, here is a list of recent NSVs!  (Some of which I am going to be really non-descriptive about as it is really personal and more for me to remember, ha!):

  • I can cross my legs, albeit I do have to use my leg muscles to hold it there.  I can put my foot on my knee though, both sitting and standing!
  • Doc informed me on Monday I am not diabetic anymore as of 4/28/10. This is HUGE
  • While in the shower, I can reach places I couldn't (easily, and without acrobatics anyway...) before
  • More fun husband-y things have become available.  weeeeeeee
  • I got a size 14 skirt! And wore it to work yesterday!  It has an elastic waistband, but whatevs.
  • My 18/20 jeans are getting loose in the thighs and waist.  Not time to trade down yet, but I'm getting there
  • Been getting some more compliments lately.
  • Above skirt was from Target, and still in the woman's section, but the smallest size in the woman's section.
  • Last night I had my arm resting on my hips when laying on my side and I felt my hip bone.  CRAZY
  • I can trim my toenails without having to hold my breath while sitting at a crazy angle and sort of approach the toes from the side and hope I get a straight cut
  • My wedding band is getting super loose.  Ive caught it in the middle of my finger once or twice now.  Gotta be careful.
  • My Uggs are no long cutting off the circulation in my calves. They are actually loose on them and I have been wearing them more.  And I can walk in them all day long and not have sore feet
  • Not having sore feet in general, for me, is amazing considering I have had bad feet for FOREVER
  • I'm catching men looking at me now, and not with the curiosity of someone looking at a circus freak.  There is attraction there.
  • Had to get rid of some more clothes that are simply too big to wear in public.  My favorite jammie bottoms are about to be lost forever.  I will miss them.  Shopping time soon! I'm still waiting for the July trip though to make wardrobe purchases.

I suppose that is enough for now.  Good stuff to reflect on when the stupid scale is slower than optimal.
