if you are able to walk.......that is a NSV

if you can wipe your ass.....that is a NSV

if you can put your own socks on.....that is a NSV

if you can sit on a chair or bed no longer fearing it breaking...that is a NSV

these are some of my personal NSV's after i had WLS

i did not care what the scale said (still dont as i go by losing inches/clothes getting bigger on me)

i did not care if i ever got to be a size 2

i wanted to be able to do those things

merely WALKING without fear of passing out due to heavy breathing

merely sitting down somewhere not being scared the chair would break

(like in the movie shallow hal)

trust me, those NSV mean a lot MORE than a stupid ass number on a scale

when you go from wearing a TIGHT size stretch 30 to a snug 12/14 ......you understand

when inches lost means losing TRUE weight...

only lost a pound?

how about being able to live comfortably

its about health

not about being skinny or a size...
