NSV - I'm a slob!



Recommended Posts

How many years have I wanted to drop food on myself and have it actually land on something other than my boobs!?!

I was just eating some roast beef and applesauce for lunch. I looked down with disgust when I noticed that I had been a slob and dripped it down my front. Then it hit me! It went all the way down my front! LOL How crazy is this? I'm excited that I'm a slob that can actually get the food all the way down my shirt instead of just on my boobs. w00t!

Next goal? Nothin' but lap baby! *looks down* Hm.. I know there's one down there somewhere.

Congratulations on your NSV! I too know how good this accomplishment feels. I am also a fellow slob when it comes to eating. My husband can't help but smile everytime I spill something because he know it's only a matter of time. I'm a sucker for the dipping sauces:)

P-Nut, I'll say congratulations because you seem so terribly excited about this. But am I to understand you're excited that your "girls" are shrinking? :confused:

Just kidding. I know, you're whole body's shrinking with them. Congrats!! :(:Banane20::eek:

Congratulations! I too am a SERIOUS slob. Most of my friends describe me as "a spilly one." That's gotta feel great to have your first NSV. I haven't even had a SV yet but hopefully I'll be hot on your tracks! Congrats!

Hey same thing happened to me last week. DH & I were having lunch and I dribbled Soup. It landed on my hand which was resting on the table. DH announced "Honey it hit you hand, not your boobs!" He was so excited for me it was cute. Then he got this pathetic look on his face and said "this is very bad news" :( ...........I for one am actually happy the girls are shrinking -- enough is enough!

Great NSV P'nut!!!! My boobs have gone down SOME, but not enough. They are still terribly big. I have to share a "compliment" my husband gave me yesterday. It didn't come across as a compliment at the time...

I had on a different shirt that I hadn't worn in a long time. It was fitting rather TIGHT on my bust line. My husband came home from work & said - "Wow!! You are looking.........EXTRA-ORDINARILY huge today!!" I had no idea he was talking about my girls. I thought he was talking about ME & my body. Now, to tell a woman who has just lost 54 lbs that she looks extraordinaly HUGE was not what I was lookin' for. I must have givin' him "the evil look" & he immediately had to backtrack & stammered. He was in EXTRAORDINARLY HUGE trouble that day. :angry But, I got over it & realized he was TRYING to compliment me.

So, in other words, food is still dripping on my girls. I am envious P'nut!!!

Thanks everyone! I knew you'd understand. And yup, Ddiedre, I am thrilled that my girls are shrinking! Maybe all of the reductions pics I've been looking at online scared them into submission! hehe

Chatterbutter - NSV means non scale victory. A benefit of your bandedness other than a scale reading. Neat huh? And this wasn't my first. They are coming so quickly now that I can't even remember my first. Here's a few more that happened over this last weekend:

1. I put my sunglasses on and they were so loose I thought they were broken.

2. I had to raise the seat in the car. Since my butt and legs are shrinking, I was "shorter" in the seat!

3. I can wraps my arms around my husband and link my fingers together - completely!

4. I have gone from a size 26 pants to a 20 in jeans, and 18/20s in what I call soft pants - elastic waist, soft t-shirt type material. Um, yeah, I bought these 18/20s last week or the week before, and they are literally falling off of me! Woohoo!

Diane - you are extraordinarily, hugely wonderful and I love ya! *hugs*

All the rest of you slobs - Here's to food stains on our pants and not on our shirts! LOL

The girls are... shrinking... and that's a... NSV? :(

Congratulations! My mother's genes I did not get. She's a DD, and I refer to her girls as "the shelf", because they catch everything she drops. She doesn't leave home with her Tide2Go pen!

Great NSV, P'Nut!! :clap2:

Wheetsin, I used to call mine "the shelf" as well. They used to be 42DD and have gone down to a 40D. Still somewhat of a shelf but I'm hoping they don't shrink anymore. I'm rather fond of them. :eek:

I eagerly await the day when the food that I drop on a regular basis goes all the way down my shirt instead of resting on my boobs (no, seriously! I am!)

Congratulations on this awesome NSV!

Wheetsin, when I was breast feeing my Spudboy, my girls were a MM cup, and that doesn't stand for yuMMy. Having the girls shrink is an excellent victory for some of us. :rolleyes:

Congrats P'nut, I too hope some day to have that sort of NSV.

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
