NSV

Well since I recently got under 200lbs I figured it was time I ramped up my exercise.
I have been walking every second day, 3.5km to 5km and feel really good doing it. Not winded or anything!
As a teen I loved cross country running and thought I would like to run again so I downloaded the C25K app.
WOW! what a workout! I was sweating like crazy and could barely breathe but I did it!! Day 1 of week 1 complete!
I CAN DO THIS!!

Nadine

yes you can do it Nadine ....... keep up the good work..
may i ask a silly question i am new to this site and still learning the abv's... what does nsv stand for .. sorry silly question

nsv is non-scale victory
Hey Nadine since you are going through Guelph also watch at your one month check up (if you haven't already done it) but for the first bit they don't want you sweating.  They told me I had to slow down on the treadmill cause I was sweating.  Its difficult to get all your water in early out and if your sweating then you will become dehydrated is what they told me.

thankyou Joanne ..

Hey thanks for the info. I go on Wednesday for my first app't with the Nurse and Nutritionist.

Yeah it was the Nurse who told me that.  She asked if I was exercising and I said yes the treadmill, then she said are you sweating and I said yes as I thought this would be a good thing but apparently not.  LOL  Might have been something they should tell you earlier. 

Ya really! I work my off at work and go back there on the 12th so hopefully I'm allowed to sweat by then lol!

Nadine, congratulations on both your scale victory and your non-scale victory!!!!
