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....

I wore a dress today that I haven't been able to wear since a yr after I started my job....13 years ago!! :-)

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

Can you have NSVs before surgery?

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

Today i was able to lift one leg across the opposite thigh to tie my tennis shoe lace while standing without losing my balance,Yeah!

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.

I am actually starting to enjoy exercise!

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 now weight less than my husband! My girlfriends said even my shoulders are smaller!

I love that I weigh less than my husband.
