We love to see before and afters, but i am bow wanting to hear about NSV's. we get so focused on the scales we lose sight of other victories. So tell me, what was you best NSV?

I'll go first.

I am pre-op but have 2 NSV's with my diet now

1. I can put my socks on without grunting

2. My engagement ring fits again!

Your turn....

Last Friday as we were riding in the car (I was in the front passenger seat, he was in the back behind hubby, who was driving), my 8 year old said to me, "Mommy, you're little!" I melted- love him! LOL

Yes, you can have an NSV before surgery. NSV stands for non scale victory, so it is anything you can Celebrate that doesn't have to do with the numbers on the scale.

Can you have NSVs before surgery?

Today I wore a size 14 pair of pants to work. They fit perfectly. I think they was running a little big but I take it. I wore 18W before surgery. Woohoo

I can sit cross cross apple sauce (Indian style) during story time again. When I was heavier it made my hip sit in the joint crooked and now it doesn't.

The seat belt doesn't strangle me and cut off blood circulation when I wear it anymore!

I can comfortably fit on the back of my husbands motorcycle!

      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! 😞
