A day of NSV's (non-scale victories)

This morning I was doing sit-ups with my resistance band as I have no stomach muscles (or so I thought). As I was doing them I realised I was hardly using the band at all and thought.. hmmm.. could I really do a sit-up on my own? Well I can! I did 15 in total today using just me! and no resistance band, on top of the 25 I had done with it. I am well impressed :-)

Then later in the day I was sitting outside in the garden and I realised I was sitting at the back of the chair. Normally I would sit towards the front of the chair because after a few minutes the arms of the chair would start to hurt my thighs. Well no more :-)

Next I was picking up dog poo (sorry lol) and the gloves I use, which are disposable food handling gloves were falling off my hand. Never did that before!

So today has been filled with NSV's which only heightens my motivation to continue my journey!

All in all I have a had a great week. My sister is here visiting from Las Vegas and I have really enjoyed it so far. Am looking forward to the next two weeks with her! When I go visit my family in Vegas I spend very little time with her as she works and I am usually running around with my husband. So having her here with few distractions and actually spending time with her has been lovely! Today she is off spending the day/night with my daughters and granddaughter which is really cool too! One of my daughters hasnt seen her in about 7 years! and my granddaughter had never met her.

Some days just feel especially good :-)
