NSV (my smile for the day)

Today I had a nice little NSV. Last night I got a call from a fellow employee, asking if I could cover his shift. I'm retired but picked up a part-time job to get me out of the house. Anyhow, I said that I could help him out. I forgot that I had left my jeans in the washer, and was worried that I was going to end up late waiting on them to dry. I had been given a bunch of hand me downs (stinks constantly buying new clothes as the pounds have come off). I had a few pairs of 32's that were a tad on the tight side a few weeks back. In desperation I gave them a try this morning and found that they fit perfectly. Along with another notch on the belt!

I know going from a 34 to a 32 is not a huge jump but it is considering 7 months ago, I was jumping between 44/46.  Now if I can only figure out how to get taller!  I swear I am shrinking as I get older.

Hey, that's a nice surprise! A size down is down right? Awesome! 

lol  That's better than my experience last week!  I knew I had regained 13 pounds, which really is not a great amount, but I grabbed a pair of jeans off the back of the chair to go volunteer.  They were a little snug pulling them up but the button was really hard and getting the zipper was near to impossible!!  I was really distraught!! Finally I took them off, almost crying and then noticed they were a size 6!!  My grand-daughters!!  I take an 8 and happily put them on!! Whew!!

It is a big NSV  Posting them is such a great thing. All of us need to hear about them. Going from a 34 to 32 is a big deal. The last part of our losing is harder than in the beginning. 

Major NSV. Thanks for sharing. Keep posting.

Don't diminish your progress! Smaller sizes ROCK!

Congratulations!!! 

YES, it's a Rocky moment!

Yup one size = 10 lbs. Keep them tight & hug your boy butt.  

Nice way to start your shift.

That's a happy NSV.  For the height thing, try squeezing into one size too small.  For now, that's a 30.  When the 30 is a good fit, go to 28.  Then let us know if it works.

A size 30 is hard for me even to contemplate but then again so was a 32x32 about 7 months ago.  I know I am smaller now than when I was playing football in high school back in the 80's. It has definitely been many moons since the last pair of 32's.  I am working towards 170-175, so there is the chance I might see a pair of 30's in the future. In the meantime I will keep the fingers crossed.

NSV's are to be celebrated.... and going down in jean sizes is an amazing feeling!! Congrats!!
