What NSV are you mist looking forward to?



Recommended Posts

NSV = non scale victory

For me it's being able to wear heels and more stylish clothes. I always felt it was hard to be feminine and morbidly obese. Carrying so much weight coupled with not a lot of clothing options just made me go for comfort. I'm hoping this changes this year.

I wanted to fit comfortably in an airline seat - I now can with room to spare. Like you, I wanted to wear high heels - on Christmas Day, I wore 5" sparkly heels! And I wanted to go dancing and shake my thang without being stared at - and I have now done that on a few occasions and LOVED it!

I am sure you will have many NSVs this year - enjoy every one!

here isn't one I'm particularly looking forward to. However, one happened over the weekend. I was shopping with my 23 year old daughter (who is a size 1 and I think maybe someone switched her with my real baby at birth or something) and I kept looking at size 3X tops and would try them on and she kept saying, "Mom you are drowning in those." She finally went and picked out some cute 2X tops and they fit beautifully. I guess I thought I was a 3X because I wasn't really fitting into the 3x's at Kohls before surgery so I thought they would fit now. Well, I was pleasantly surprised.

I haven't yet gotten my surgery or surgery date, but I am now 24 and just graduated this past year because of medical problems. I didn't buy a graduation ring because i was embarrassed to get such a high size to fit my finger. So hopefully when i do get this done i will be able to ware a ring proudly. This is just one of many thing i am wanting to get out of this surgery..

The first NSV I am looking forward to is for my belly to not touch my legs.

#1. Not having to wear shorts under my skirts! My thighs rub together something fierce so even on the hottest summer days i have on some kind of spandex shorts underneathe. it's so annoying b/c if the dress is close fitting you can totally see the shorts. Plus it's so hot and uncomfortable. I need some air up there (lol)

      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...
