That moment when someone u haven't seen in 5 months sees u but walks past u bcuz they don't recognize you.

That's what I encountered today at work. That was one of my best NSV's so far. I'm 8 months post op and 35 away from goal. This NSV just motivated me more than ever. To hit my goal by November. My Bandiversary.

Haha! Yes, but my own daughter, who sees me hundreds of times a week, looked down a Walmart aisle and didn't see me! Best wishes and hope that you get to your goal by November!

I've had a few NSV's in the past month or so, but yesterday was my biggest! I was walking into Walmart & caught a reflection of myself in the door & couldn't believe what I saw....my collar bone!!! It's been in hiding for a few years. I never thought something so small could mean so much!

I am still new, please tell me what NVB or whatever is an acronym for!!

NSV=non scale victory!

I , also, have gotten a kick out of seeing myself in the overhead mirrors and realizing that it is me in the mirror and I don't look 1/2 bad! Karen

Non scaled victory...got it! Thanks :-)

Congrats! My first one will be fitting back into my wedding ring.

I work in a car dealership and so does my 21 year old son. Yesterday a customer came in, her husband had been my son's soccer coach when he was about 10. I asked her if she recognized Adam. She said, "yes, I knew who he was right away, it's YOU I didn't recognize!"

Mine isn't as great as the others listed here, but one of my NSV's I am most proud of right now, is the fact that pajamas bottoms that were rather perfect/tight on me a few weeks ago, are now becoming so baggy to the point I'm going to have to toss them out and get some new ones.

My NSV..... Doing a Zumba video without stoping and feeling awesome! I am 2 week post op. I could barely make it to seven minutes of the video a month ago. May not mean much to others but priceless to me.

I recently fit back into my engagement ring after 4.5yrs... It's the best!!!

In just 2 weeks? That's awesome! Good for you!

A couple weeks ago I water-skied for the first time in about 20 years, it felt great! M two youngest kids didn't even know I could. Yes, the little things mean a lot!

These are all amazing stories. Especially the collar bone post. I hadn't thought about it before but yes that is a big difference I also notice.

I had a nsv today we went to a amusement park and I rode the bumper cars with my kids...we all had a great time today

I'm with you gale1016! That's one hing I've been dying to achieve for years. Hoping the band helps me reach that goal. My husband says I'm obsessed about waning to see my collarbone lol congrats ... And congrats to you all! NSV's are awesome!
