Happiness Is.......

I got out of the shower and my bath sheet towel actually fit all the way around.

I weighed myself expecting no change in the scale aka 3 week slow-down. Much to my surprise, I lost 2 lbs!!!!!

What made you happy today?

My BMI is now under 40! I know it's still way too high but I feel like that is a sort of milestone and I know it's never going to begin in a 4 again! That made me happy today :)

Great thread by the way :)

Pre-opper here...What made me happy today? I went to my primary care doctor to discuss my decision for VSG. I was worried and fretted going in to tell her and ask her to have labs ordered. I just wasn't sure what her reaction was going to be.

She had the biggest smile on her face and said, "I am so happy you're doing this. You have worked so hard and haven't gotten anywhere. I think this is the right decision and I think you'll be really successful."

It's nice to know you've added someone to your corner.

Great NSV! Congrats!

What made me happy today??? Well, my A/C was broken (not happy), but I didn't sweat at all (happy!). Before I would've been found fanning myself in a puddle of sweat shoveling ice cream into my mouth.

I worked out and walked today felt a great sweat and smiled! Never thought I'd enjoy the workout! (p.s this is my first real workout in years, I'll probably be bed ridden tomorrow but It feels good now Ha )Great thread lady!!

What made me happy today was that I went in for a nutrition appointment and came out with a tentative date for my surgery....December 18. So, there is light at the end of my tunnel. One endoscopy, two appts., two weeks of liver shrink and ta da...losers bench. I am so excited. I never thought about the towel thing. I have those big giant bath sheets, too, because regular towels don't get the job done. I will be looking for that as a NSV!

That was a big NSV for me too. I went on Vacation in August 5 months after my surgery and I went to a hotel and used a towel and it wrapped around me like a normal person.

And I got calf high boots with no need to worry about getting extra wide calf and in fact they are too loose on top.

Super happy for you I know how it feels to have things like this be big events for you!

I actually commented on that today. I'm so excited for things to come.
