You gotta love a good NSV. You come to rely on them to a certain degree to help you get through this process. They don't validate what you are doing but they sure do make you feel good. Today, I had two, not one but two LOL.

1) I saw the light ... You know that ever evasive triangle of light at the top of your thighs. Well today, I saw it for the first time hehehe! I was just freaking giddy.

and

2) I was talking to a co-worker, who knows about the surgery and here is how the coversation whent

Co-worker: "OMG (she's young so she actually said the letters OMG lol ), what are you now a 4???"

Me: "Uh, nope not yet but these pants I have been waiting to fit into for a while now, but they are a 9/10."

Co-worker: "No way! Look at your legs, they are smaller than mine now and I am in a 4. Those pants have got to be sized wrong."

Me: "Either way, THANKS! I appreciate that."

Just made me smile.

Congrats Raine! NSVs are the best! I'm gonna go check and see if I have a triangle of light or not right now :-)

Yeah, me too! I was bragging to my wife the other day that I could see something between my legs that I hadn't seen for a few decades, she coyly asked "What?" thinking I was bragging on "something else" and I replied LIGHT! I can see between my knees and my crotch and even stick my hand in between my legs without separating them at the knee or forcing them between fat!

HOw AWESOME!!

I have light too and just today a co-worker told me my butt was little!! LITTLE, my butt. are you serious?? EXCITING!!

Anyway, congrats.!!

Raine,

I love your NSV threads... and this one is no different!

You gotta love the compliments and seeing 'the light'... well, that is pure brilliant!!

Awesome!! I haven't noticed seeing the light yet, but I'll be on the lookout now...

Lol, I am so happy for you! That is an awesome NSV!

It was the first time ever I saw that! Loved it! Thanks guys.

Congratulations! What an outstanding discovery! As far as I know, on me, the light is purely theoretical. I hope it will be making an appearance sometime before year-end.

About your size 9/10 pants - with current sizes (I swear they are bigger than they used to be) - they may be equivalent to a size 4. Anyway - what a nice thing to happen.

I have to go shopping for some work pants tomorrow so we'll see what the number says LOL either way I feel great.

Congrats! Two in one day! Who cares what the label says about the size--you know they are smaller and so are you!

Awesome
