A new NSV for me!



Recommended Posts

I have no clothes that fit me anymore! Everything is getting too big, except one pair of size 22 jeans that I just got into. Stupid things, I was wearing 20s in other jeans and couldnt get them on! Anyway! I went shopping for some pants to wear to the gym. I picked out 2 pair exactly alike, one size 18 the other size 14/16. They were cotton, elastic waist with a draw string. I tried on the 18s first and they fit but they were a bit snug. They were 100% cotton and I figured they would draw up, so that wasn't going to work. When I picked up the 14/16s I saw the tag, and it said 18. I had on the 14/16s!!! LOL! I was stunned! How in the world can someone who weighs 246 pounds get a size 14/16 on?! Someone please tell me! *laughs*

So my NSV is, I not only bought the 18s but I also bought a pair of 18 Lee's jeans. I walked into the dressing room with three pair of pants and bought two! Do any of you realize how shocking that is?? *laughs* I do! And that's my NSV for today. Thanks for letting me share! :confused:

Congratulations....you must be thrilled!! :clap2: I can barely remember the size 18 days and the size 14 days were in the ancient times for me. I can picture you with a big smile when you walked out of the dressing room. :biggrin1:

Definitely! And you can be sure that when the dressing room attendant took the pair of 14/16s from me, I made sure she knew I could get them on but I chose to buy the 18s. *laughs*

Go P'Nut!!! Aren't NSV's fun!! I keep finding new ones every day. I agree with Lisa. You might as well just buy the 14/16 because you'll be there in no time!!! How tall are you? You look pretty tall in your Before/After pictures.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
