Yep some non surgery victories :-D Friday I went to the movies with a friend and was able to put both arm rest down and still have plenty or room in my chair :-) Now my niece can hug me and wrap her arms all the way around me :-) oooo... Was able to wear a REALY cute pair or wedges all day :-D Okay I wanna hear some of y'all's now :-D

One month after surgery, I am officially off my insulin. I've been insulin-dependent for about five years. Happy day.

OMG I'm so happy for you!!! I can't wait! I just started insulin 2 months ago and it's driving me bonkers!

Will be so worth it! Hang in there. I was bummed, because so many get off it before leaving the hospital. It took me an extra couple weeks, but I got there.

I had to take the extender off my bra, and I can sit with my legs crossed comfortably now!! Only 2 weeks post-op!

I have been out of work 2 weeks (tomorrow is my 2 week surgery anniversary) I tried on my work pants (khakis) and they are swimming on me! 28.8 lbs down.

the only thing that keep my mind off eating was doing other things i love i love movies so i seen every movie you can think of. and with my liquid diet i did do a lot of broth base Soups Panara was my friend.

Thank god for movies!! I’ve maxed out Netflix and now on to Amazon prime and soon Hulu. I have surgery tomorrow. Even this one day fast has made me so emotional. Wish me luck.

I hope your surgery went well @SGirl35. MY NSV is being able to cut my toe nails with out pain.

P. S. what does NSV actually stand for?

Hi there! My surgery went great! I’m down 26lbs my third week post op. I still do feel sick at times and am learning how to eat and drink slowly. I can’t keep too much down though. My NSV would be ; no more back pain, and I can’t leave out that my feet don’t hurt anymore! I had the worst throbbing foot pain in both my feet and now I can walk and run errands without being miserable.
Congrats on your toe nail victory. I hadn’t tried! I just leaned over and saw that Wow I can! However it does hurt my tummy to do much since my incisions are still healing.

my most recent non-scale victory is putting on yoga pants and having the legs be totally loose, even he thighs!!

???

Today I realized I haven’t even thought about my knees in a couple of days. They don’t hurt anymore.[emoji171][emoji173]️[emoji172][emoji170]

Thanks

I was sitting on a chair and i bent my knees and put my feet on the chair too. I wrapped my arms around my legs and interlocked my fingers. Wat a feeling

my goal is to run a 5K one day.... couple weeks ago I decided to see how far I could rim without stopping.... I made it 2.84 miles.... almost there...
