Your favorite nsv's?

Also seeing my lab results, normal blood pressure and normal blood sugar!

Great topic! Some of my favorite NSV's are: I can cross my legs; I can shop for clothes in regular size departments/stores; I don't have to use the handicapped stall in public restrooms; there's plenty of room in airplane and theater seats now; I can sit on the floor and get up again without needing a crane to lift me; I wore a bathing suit in public while on vacation; I bought my first short skirt in 30 years and even wear it in public; people I tell about my weight loss say, "I never would have guessed you were ever that big."

Omg! I was cleaning some jewelry today and decided to try on my favorite ring, which used to fit tight. Well, I can wear it now, yippee!

My current NSV is sitting in my recliner and pulling my legs and feet up in the seat with me. I've always been short and would pull my feet into my chair so they wouldn't dangle and go numb. (My grandmother would tell me that I wasn't allowed to feed my knees at dinner.) At some point I became too big to do that in my recliner. Sure I could lean back and have my feet on the foot rest but it's just not the same as snuggling up in the seat. But now I have plenty of room in my recliner. :-)

I haven't been banded yet but this has been one of my favorite threads!

Knowing that I can fit into pretty much any chair without breaking it.

Sitting in booths at restaurants.

Running.

Knowing a seat belt in any car will fit me.

Shopping in the regular ladies section/occasionally juniors section.

Feeling almost normal.

When my son said there goes my skinny mum

[n2win 123]

1st: was yesterday when at the end of my 30 min walk on the treadmill I actually JOGGED the last few minutes!!!!!!!

2nd: was today during my walk; when I started walking 2-3 minutes, then jog a minute and then walk, jog, walk, jog and repeated this the entire workout!

3rd: was this morning when my husband said "WOW, I can already tell you have lost weight and your belly, its almost completely gone!".

--Tomorrow will be 3 weeks & I'm scheduled for my first fill--

I'm down 21 lbs from surgery & 32 lbs from my heaviest weight.
