How about some NSVs!?!?



Recommended Posts

Without realizing it I had my right leg up on the same chair I was sitting on. When I realized it I stared for several seconds. Can't tell you when I've been able to do that!

#1

I just came from the movie theatre and I didn't have to sit down at an angle to fit in the seat.

#2

I put on my bra and instead of using the last hooks I was able to go to the first set of hooks... (Almost time for bra shopping) so excited

I have become very aware and sensitive to people I am close to who still struggle with these issues. My brother and my best friend are both considerably overweight. When I'm out with either one of them I make an effort to ask for a table instead of a booth so they'll be more comfortable. I remember what it was like to not fit in a booth!

People don't get this. Everything I go out to eat with people, they want to sit in a booth, meanwhile in my head, I'm praying I'll fit!

I still think seeing people i hadn't seen in a while who didn't know who I wasmade me feel good. Also, nothing beat sitting in a roller coaster seat for the first time in years. I missed that so much!

1)I'm still plus size, but now i can shop at any place that has plus sizes, not just Avenue and Catherine's because they have aize 30/32.

2)went to a texas rangers game...and fit in the seat.

3) booths no longer flip me out.

4)slowly starting to be able to run.

I've had a few in the last couple of weeks

1. No more bra extender!

2. I am able to run! I ran 20 minutes straight on the treadmill without wanting to die.

3. This weekend I learned that I have sized out of the Plus Size selection at Forever 21 (My favorite store even though I'm 28, OH WELL!) I'm still too big for most of their "standard" sizes, but getting there.

4. Size 12 jeans I bought two years ago as a goal are now fitting me, but only for so much longer, there's a little room in them.

Congrats to everyone for their NSVs!!!

I haven't gone clothes shopping yet but I'm sure when I do I'll need a smaller size and can go to stores other than Lane Bryant. As of today I've lost 25 pounds!!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
