Well great NSV! I can only wish you success in losing off your boobs! I did go down from DD to C.

I just wanted to share my nsvs with everyone, first, drop in blood pressure from 140 range to 105 range, yay! Second, I went bra shopping and have lost 4 inches in band size. The crazy part is, even with almost 30 lbs lost, I've actually gone UP in cup size! From a 42H to a 38I. My husband is incredibly happy, he even did a little dance ( can you tell he is a boob man?) but I am kind of bummed, I was hoping I would lose some of the ladies! No cute bras for me, only thumb thick underwires lol.

Nsv From My 12 Yr Old Daughter
Lissa replied to cassieh's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Great NSV from your daughter... and give her a break about being totally honest with you now. I think it's amazing that she managed not to say anything before you lost the weight! Most kids aren't that diplomatic. -
NSV's ??? Where do I start ? From the minute I wake up is the start of a NSV because no more sleep apnea ! Getting showered and nicely dressed is a pleasure , not a challenge because of my weight. Clothes look and fit waayyy better. All day, no more digestive issues, everything works normally. I enjoy talking to people because they are happy to talk to me, I think the self confidence comes through. I love my exercise classes ( swimming and Pilates ) because I can see and feel my body getting stronger and more toned. My pants are getting loose. Again. I can do everyday normal things wihout even thinking about it. Yep, EVERYDAY is a NSV for me !!!!

Congratulations! Great NSVs. Over if my friends said the "you're tiny" comment to me recently and it felt odd, yet fun to hear.

OK--8 weeks out, dropping from 22/24 jeans to everything fitting well in a 16!!!!. Not limited to the plus size dept! Lost enough tummy size that my boobs enter the room before my stomach does! So, so, so, happy to have done this and just want to hug Dr. Jawad every day! BMI down from 40 to 33 as of today--two categories of fat down, two to go. Thanks for letting me brag a bit. Have had several week + long stalls, but just waited them out. 40 lbs. since starting the preop clearances, a little over 30 since surgery 8 weeks ago. Why didn't I do this sooner?

Awesome that you're getting the attention you deserve for your success. Now the package that the attention came in....well I'll leave that up to your interpretation. Congratulations on a huge NSV! -
Thia is a way off the charts NSV!!!
Buckeye Girl replied to Julie76's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Congrats on the story! When I get a compliment on my looks, I feel like it's a pity compliment or like what they really want to say is, you're really pretty for a fat girl. It will be interesting to see if my thoughts change after my surgery. I feel really stupid but can someone tell me what NSV stands for? -
Woooo Hoo Linda!!!! You go girl!!!!! Strut your stuff!!!! I know what you mean about not necessarily being interested. But it sure feels good to be noticed!!! Super cool NSV!!!!!!!

Aw Vines, what a great NSV! Tell him that is fabulous. I assume he has the band?

Nah, you won't miss LB, because you'll find so much more at so many places that you won't have to miss them. Great NSV!!!!!!!

This is my first time posting, however I have been following since right before my surgery. I had a NSV that brought me to tears this 4th of July weekend and thought I would share. To some it may sound silly. I have 3 children 14, 4 and 2. I have been over weight all my life. When my 14 yr old was younger I was never able to take her on rides at carnvials or things like that as I was to big. In fact one time I tried but, had to get off because the lap thing wouldn't go down. Thankfully, she was to young to understand or remember. I of course was embarrassed beyond belief and remember it well. This weekend we took our kids to the 4th of July carnival and I was able to take my youngest on rides. I was able to sitwith them on the ride and I was able to get in a Trauma one helicopter without being told I was too big. I still have a ways to go but finally feel like a good mom to all my kids. Thanks for letting me share!

13 Weeks Out And Over Halfway To Goal!
SittingPretty posted a topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
I can't believe it's just over 3 months and I'm already halfway there! Imagine if I actually added exercise to the program (which I will in Jan)!! I am so excited! I am down to a 12 petite pants and had to buy new clothes Knee pain...gone feet hurting....nope walk up those stairs...YES! I even spent an entire day walking and shopping and never once got winded or tired. I am real close to having prominent collarbones again. Here's the biggie....I can wear my wedding ring again!!! This was my NSV goal! I do have real bad arms though. My arms never grew normally. They had this HUGE "u" shaped fat roll thing real close to my armpit and the rest towards my elbow was not huge. Now that it is shrinking, it is going to leave a long flap of skin I also noticed my butt is looking flat and saggy. Hopefully I can correct the butt issue in the gym. Anyway, I am sooooo happy with the sleeve Merry Christmas Everyone! -
Nsv For Me At The Gym Today Yay
coops replied to Liliana Arleen's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Love it, love it, love it... I too remember the feeling of the towel 'fitting'...lol! It might seem silly to others but it was a great moment for me too. I also like having a bath now and virtually all my body is below the water... just a lil island of the tummy left to be submerged...lol! Congrats on a great NSV! =] -
I've always wanted to go skydiving, but have been over the permissable weight since I've been old enough. Well, I turned 30 on Saturday and for my birthday I went skydiving! It was amazing! Now I just need to figure out how to convince my head that I am at a more normal weight. When they had me step on the scale I was convinced it would read out heavier than I am. Then, when I went to put on the jump suit I really didn't think it would fit... But it all did and I had a BLAST (and survived ) Anyway - just had to share! ~Lori

Amazing what you don't realize-NSV
chocolate_snaps replied to Crishell's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
congrats! I cant wait for my first NSV. -
Plateau here as well, about two months worth. Up down, up down. I'm going in for a fill next week. But I'm not discouraged...I've always had plateaus on any kind of weigh loss program and know that it is indeed part of the process. I anticipate a drop in weight. I've also stepped up the exercise. I'm thinking about the 5-6 small meals....that might shake things up about. And you are right about the NSV...I keep losing fractions of inches inspite of what the scale says. Patience! Kept after it, everyone! Shawn

Debbie3sons replied to Terry Poperszky's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Hey Terry I remember when you cae on here you had posted about Califlower cheessticks it was just about this time as we were watching a football or had watched football and I wanted something, new to try instead of pizza for the get together and it seeed to be a hit and people were like what it's not bread or pizza lol so I so remember when you came on , and congats on your nsv's and bandeversery look how much you have gained lol health wise and how much you have lost , as I always let people know look at your before pics or the ones along the way side by side till now and you will notice what everybody else see's even if we don't. -
I had a first NSV today, but it's kinda wierd!! I was fixing a store bought chocolate cake that some icing had come off . It is for my future daughter in law's birthday today. After I put the cake away, I noticed that the box side had a huge slab of icing on it. I needed the box for the cake, so I took the knife and scrapped off that icing. and .......threw it down the garbage disposal, followed by hot water! I have never in my life thrown away icing, especially chocolate....it feels so good to be in better control!

congrats! Keep track of your NSVs, when you see them all at once it is pretty amazing. You made me laugh when you said that! Good work!

Hey everyone. I have just come into some realization. I was looking in the bathroom mirror last night and guess what?? I have shoulders and collar bones now!! Not just two humps of fat on either side of my neck. Sounds silly even to myself when I think about it but I have been overweight all my life (39 years). In fact, I am 10 pounds less than what I recall putting on my paperwork to get my driver's license at 16. It's amazing the things I am now realizing now that I have lost almost 60 pounds. I also noticed that my shadow is smaller. When I saw it, I thought it belonged to someone else and no one else was walking with me. When I realized it was my shadow, I just giggled like a young girl in love. AND I bought my first pair of size 18 jeans the other day. On 1/19/07 (surgery day) I was wearing 26's. Like some of you, I have been in a weight loss plateau scale- wise for like two months but it's things like this that mean so much more.
