I haven’t been around the forums in a little while. Today’s non scale victory is clothing. Prior to surgery I wore a 3x top/size 24 jeans. Today I went to try on clothes and fit a large top/size 17 jeans. I’m so proud of my progress even though it can’t really see a difference most days

Thank you! I love my tool so much!

Nsv

Buy jeans of the rack and they always fit
Not being able to buy pants at costco because I was too big and now because I'm too small
Walk around a crowded room without stress
Got scuba certified and was actually the smallest there, blew my mind as this is a dream come true. I'm going on a diving excursion by myself and not stressed, boom.
I went zip lining in Costa Rica
I actually will eat in front of others, huge for me
I'm not worried about being judged for my grocery cart
I no longer wish to be or feel invisible
I tuck my shirts in
I love getting dressed up and going to events
I can talk with anybody and be present and not focused on negative thoughts
I can enjoy social settings again
I can swim for hours at a time again
I am not afraid of failing anymore because of my weight
I am more aware of others needs and am more able to help them. When somebody drops something I quickly pick it up for them.
I saved ten bucks on flannel pj pants because instead of the adult xxl I used to wear I fit into a youth size
I say yes to adventures now
I have the courage to say no too without beating myself up
The negative self talk is being replaced with thoughts of gratitude
Food is finally just food again

We can see it!!!

My wife died in 2011 and it was a sad day when I had to remove my wedding ring because it got to tight to wear. Just last week I was able to put it back on. I've also been able to move the car seat closer to the wheel. At work I can fit into any of the safety harnesses when using power equipment rather than the biggest harness, and my weekly grocery bill has dropped significantly.

Thank you so much!

All of my DD bras are too big! I’m nowhere near goal but I found an old 40D bra and it fit perfect so yay for me! lol

You look Fabulous! Keep up the good work. You can tell

You look fantastic, congrats!

I’m only 11 weeks post op now. I still don’t see too much of a difference but I’m down 57 lbs (32 since surgery). The left pic is the day of surgery, the right was yesterday (before putting on my makeup). I guess I have a neck and more defined cheekbones now, lol. You all look awesome

I think we all get some form of body dysmorphia along the way. We can’t see what everyone else sees and maybe it because we are our own worst critics. You probably look very different and don’t even know it! Thank you! And I’m still fighting the good healthy fight, lol

All of this! I despised pics and I always felt bad looking at pics of myself. I stuck to face shots and only if they were taken by me. So glad to know I’m not the only one who is okay with it now 😊

My most recent NSV (if I can be considered one) was that my friend snapped a pic of me without my knowledge and sent it to me and I didn’t completely hate it, lol

That’s what I’m here for, expanding the bigger picture 😉 You look great, own it 😊
