So haven’t been here in a while. But two today (after some small regain it was a good reminder). I was able to walk all over campus keeping up with my team (couple miles) without getting out of breath or breaking a sweat.

Second I had put down my size as a medium for my polo shirt. It was a women’s medium and when I heard that I was a little worried because women’s cuts are notoriously tiny. Not a problem.

I’m in Eastern Europe at the moment and eating while a little challenging I’m happily finding food I can eat. I hate the look on wait staff’s faces when I only eat some but I’m doing what I need to.

My other NSV is I voluntarily put myself on the 5th floor as opposed to 2nd in a place with no elevators. I’m not dead yet but oh man am I feeling it by floor 5. I can’t image doing that 60 lbs ago...

I tied a jacket around my waist. Like didn’t even think about it and did it. I can’t remember doing that in a very long time. Squealed and only had the dog looking at me weirdly.

Last week and I went and bought new jeans as the ones I bought last fall (32”) are just too baggy. I bought and fit into 29”. I can’t believe my waist is now smaller than my 32” inseam. Awesome NSV for me as the scale is pretty stagnate.

Then I was sharing this story with one of my close friends (who affectionally calls her self a skinny bitch) and she tell me she has pants in that size too. I literally stopped walking and just gave her this look of WTF and commented “I just have no idea how to process that”. Seriously a year ago I was two weeks post op and today life is completely different.

I went shopping for the first time since surgery today! I thought I’d get the next two sizes down so I wouldn’t have to go back anytime soon. The 2nd size down are the ones that fit!! Whoop whoop

And I brought out one of my cherished blue Levi's. Not even a belt will help these , too doggone big, Bye Bye 26W, now I have to either sell or give away you! I claim a NSV there!

I have on a shirt today I’ve never been able to button.

So this is a weird one. Last night while taking a bath if I had my knees bent and touching and there was an honest to goodness visible gap. Like I could see thru it and had to really contort myself to close it.

I’ve been struggling the last few weeks as the numbers are flat gain flat gain loss ... rinse and repeat. But I keep going back to how clothes that a few weeks ago were tight in the legs, belly or arms are now plenty comfortable and are not tight or pulling. I’m wearing heels regularly and my feet aren’t angry at me. I get antsy if I haven’t been active and look forward to moving my body with a walk/workout etc.

The weird one is recognizing I’m now thin enough (size 10 US) that thin privilege is real and a total mind frak. I’m no longer invisible in public and that’s just really odd to have the shift in under a year.

My ex boyfriend is one of my closest friends now and he is not obese at all but can put on a little extra weight because like most people likes fast food and the ease of takeout.
I convinced him start taking lunch to work and I shopped and meal prepped with him once. He keeped it going and 3 months later thanked me because at his recent physical they realized he lost 20lbs.

I’m so sorry you had that happen. Honestly if they are general caring people it’s probably more thoughtlessness. Doesn’t mean it doesn’t hurt.

If they are general not nice people then it’s intentional. Usually I find people who bring people down intentionally are usually miserable and unhappy. They want you feeling like them. So much BS.
