Let's talk about NSV's

Today is a great day.  It is one day before my birthday and I have 2 NSV's to report.  First...I am wearing the cutest button down shirt today.  It's kinda peachy.  I love this shirt. I love it the first time I saw it.  So I immediately purchased it for MY HUSBAND.  That's right...I'm wearing Charles shirt today.  This is a HUGE NSV.  Charles is 6' tall and weight about 175-185 any given day of the week.  He has stayed in that range for the 12 years we have been together.  But today...I'm wearing his shirt.  Holy hell...it's a great day.  I've been trying on his shirts for months now...hoping they would fit.  They never did.  But last night...it fit. I was hoping he wouldn't notice that I was borrowing his shirt.  But when he was ironing my clothes he came in and asked why he was ironing his shirt.  I jumped up in the bed and started screaming...it finally fits me...it finally fits me!!!  LOL

Second NSV...I have this same shirt tucked into my pants.  Yup...my shirt is tucked in.  I have not worn my shirts tucked in since I gained weight.  I'm starting to do it more often.  But I have the skinny husband's shirt tucked into my pants.  I'm feeling real good right now.  LOL

This is important...because that flat chested whore I call a scale is evil.  So I just proved that her funky calculations are crap...and I'm doing what needs to be done to get where I'm trying to go.  What NSV's have you had recently?

I hope everyone is having a great week.  Happy Wednesday!!

Now those are some major NSV's for you in your birthday month! So proud and happy for you. Now when the time comes (and it will) when you can put on a pair of his pants and wear them (not that you would want to) it is like heaven in and of itself! :)

I recently became a "tucker" too! Was super awesome! A recent NSV for me was taking my first trip to a non-plus sized store. I went to Ann Taylor Loft. I was able to buy some actual size LARGE items. Not XL or 2X... just plain ole LARGE! Felt amazing. Happy birthday girl. I'm so happy you had a nice victory to help you celebrate. :)
