I've been stuck at a 50 lb wt loss from my highest weight, (30 lbs since surgery) for two weeks, but am obviously shrinking. Two weeks ago I tried on some new jeans but could not fit into a smaller size...today, I tried again and have jumped down two sizes. That does not seem possible...maybe it's the brand or something, but what ever, I bought some! :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

The moral of the story is, don't worry about stalls...things are still moving along as long as we keep to the program!!!

Whoo hoo! Way to go. NSV's are the best!

It's possible Cajun - even when my scale doesn't move, my clothes continue to get looser -- congrats on the NSV!

Congratulations! I seem to get a little more excited from losing sizes than pounds.

Yep- I think that is happening to me now! I think I read a few months ago that some people loose weight the first month or two and then the second or third month for them was just inches----that is the story of my sleeved life right now! But I will take it! It beats gaining weight! I just cannot believe it, im 2 lbs from ONDERLAND and it is taking its dear, sweet time. I am gonna wait to do my 2 month post op report--for whenever I hit onderland, It might be 3 months by then! lol

We have to remember, its a journey! Not a race! But ive lost about 50 lbs as well in 2 1/2 months so thats darn good as well. So I cannot complain, if it were up to me, I wouldve been 145 lbs two months ago! lol

Great story. Thanks for the reminder.

I walked out of my pants two days ago!

Hubby said I Had to go shopping and get some pants!

I am laughing so hard at that statement. HE never wants me to go shopping.

I think pants falling off by themselves is a great NSV.

Not one I ever thought I would experience.

Amazing journey!

OK - I'm new - what's an NSV???

That is so awesome! I love it! I am still scared to weigh myself, havent weighed since surgery. I am afraid to see the number and be disappointed. Husband says to wait two weeks. I did ask him if he noticed anything but he ( very carefully) said no. Cant tell if anything fits differently because I was wearing 4 things all the time as I had grown out of my clothes and they were all elastic or tie.

Stands for Non scale Victory...such as

an accomplishment that isn't measured in lbs.

Hey,

This is interesting 'cos I have been stuck at the same weight for nearly 3 weeks and I am only 5 weeks post op... I do 'feel' smaller if that makes sense...

Any advice on how to reboot my weight loss would be gratefully received though...

Cheers
