How about some NSVs!?!?



Recommended Posts

My NSV is that after about 3 seasons.. i was able to wear these beautiful brown suede boots that i have not been able to zip up past my calfs ... this past weekend.. they zipped all the way up .. and I was showing them off proudly.. Looking forward to seeing the clothes this spring.. in the bins downstairs that i have labled " Don't fit but keep just in case I lose weight " yes i really have a bin that says that.. I have some great designer clothes that I just could not part with and had hopes that one day i would fit into them again... More to come folks ... :D

I just got my new concealed weapons permit and when asked my weight, I proudly announced 138. This is just 3 pounds more than the weight on my very first drivers license when I was 16! And 50 pounds less than my current drivers license (which is 50 pounds less than what I actually weighed ????)

My first NSV, well I'm sure there have been more, this is the first one I've shared. I can easily! reach the plug in the tub to let the bathwater out, scrub the bottoms of my feet like it wasn't a chore! Before it cut me in half to try and reach the plug let alone the soles of my feet!

Here is one for you -

I had bought two pairs of boots a couple of years ago and couldn't zip them up my calves even though they were wide width. I didn't send them back. I kept thinking I was going to lose the weight and be able to wear them. Well, finally, last week I was able to squeeze them on! I was just so glad I was able to wear them before the weather turned too warm.

On Saturday my daughter and I were in a bad accident. I had to be taken out of the car on a board as I had tremendous back pain. The ambulance person said I was tiny! Tiny!!! Two years ago I was 291 lbs. Today 155

Luckily we will recover-- my daughter was bruised and banged up and has broken ribs. I broke my wrist and a vertabra.

Tiny! Still can't believe it.

The first thing I noticed was that my engagement ring kept sliding around. I went to the jeweler to get a bar to put on it so that I don't have to keep getting it resized until I sort of stop looking weight. She said it is 2 sizes bigger already!

I also found so much extra room in all my pants. Like 4 to 5 inches. I frequent second had stores a lot.

I also was able to buy a medium t-shirt instead of a large or extra large and I cried a little bit, I was so happy.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
