NSV!

After 8 months of hard work and diligence, I finally bought clothes that have neither an X nor and L on the tag. My previous gym clothes were getting too big, especially my running leggings so last night I went shopping for new ones. I came home with a couple pairs of size M compression tights and they fit perfectly. I haven't worn a medium since elementary school.

I felt like celebrating but my normal weight husband just didn't get the significance of this. So instead, I went to the gym to try them out and had a great time. That was almost a bigger NSV since a year ago I would have hated running.

Great NSV. I'm so happy for you. I'm currently a medium as well and it shocks me everytime I put on clothes with an "M" - like someone must have switched the labels. M is for marvelous - way to go!
