I just love this one - I am buzzing from it.

Previously if someone was to describe me, I would have been described often as the bubbly one - does anyone else get that.

Well I was in earshot of a group of ladies sitting in the restaurant at my local health club, who happened to be saying something nice about me yesterday (how they liked an outfit I had actually) one of the ladies didn;t know who they meant - and I was described as the really fit lady from the gym!!!!!!
Fabulous - I am still very overweight but thats not all people are seeing now!

Now thats a good NSV!!
 
Lucy thats great!

My watch is very loose, and I think i need to get a link taken out of it. It used to fit perfectly now is swinging around. :D
 
Brilliant Tracy

I hope you keep the links as a reminder!
 
Managed to do the top button on my jeans yesterday and not just the middle and bottom one wooo hooo lol

I am adding a new hole to my belt this weekend.

Either that or buying a new belt if I can find one I like!

Andy 🙂
 
I got told this morning I was walking more quickly. One of the things I have been doing is paying attention to my posture. Makes me look slimmer, feel more confident and apparently walk faster!
 
Yay, I know what you mean!!

I have just taken in a skirt! Not had it long and I have never taken in anything before, just replaced.
 
Bumped into one of my OH's collegues from work and she said these exact words " wow you are looking smaller" lol had to laugh at that one... :D
 
Good NSV's ladies - keep them coming.
 
Andy speaks in a high pitched, squeaky voice ....

"What about me?"

<coughs>

Andy speaks in a normal 'manly' voice .....

"What about me?"

Andy :D

Oops think we were kind of confused when you put those piccies up of you in stilletoes and a mini skirt kinda leaves up wondering .. oh sorry that was a secret...
 
Andy Andy ...how on earth could I have missed you
thinks quickly.......erm I was saving you for a very special mention all to yourself!

A great big WELL DONE on the belt!!
You really are doing so well Madam!
 
I have waited so long to post this one!

Got a casual meal out with work tonight and wanted some new jeans, so bought two pairs today - one size 20 one size 18.....and guess what? Tomorrow I am taking one pair back and announcing loudly ...sorry they are too big!!!

Its a lot better than the size 24 I was in June!

Andy 🙂
