I was sleeved on Feb 4th , 2012. I decided to take my measurements on Feb 12th, when I got home and was feeling better. Well I took them yesterday, Mar 12, one month later and although I did not lose as much weight as I thought I would considering my pre op diet lose, I was amazed by the inches I lost. I lost a total of 14 inches this month. 5 inches in my waist alone.

Some of you had impressed on me the inportance of NSV's ,now I totally understand why!!!! I feel great!!!!!

I am so glad that I did because it is so easy to be discouraged when you are not losing. Once a month same time oof month. I took pics also but are not ready to share those yet.

NSV means non-scale victories. It's important to Celebrate things even when the scale doesn't move, whether its drops in inches, moving down pant sizes, having to move the car seat up closer to the steering wheel, etc.

There are several places to get tickers, but most seem to use www.tickerfactory.com. Just go to their website and follow their instructions.

Welcome!!

Thank u for the info--I hope to b posting NSV's soon!!! I'm down 73 total (40 before) 33 after but still haven't gone down a size--I thought I would have-plus I don't want to buy any new clothes till I'm sure I'm down a size...so I won't b discouraged if the smaller size don't fit. Thanks again for the info

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

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
