Non Scale Victories?...



Recommended Posts

I am three months and a half months out, sleeved October 7th and down almost 90 pounds and wanted to share a non scale victory and was hoping to hear other. Yesterday for the first time I was able to go Snowmobiling and oh my goodness was it amazing! Attached is a before and after pic as well as a pic from yesterday, hope to hear yours!!

Wow - you are awesome! I haven't been snowmobiling in years - actually decades!

My non-scale victories...

Buying smaller clothes

Giving away clothes I can no longer wear

I can workout at the gym for 90 minutes and not want to take a nap

I'm more confident when I walk into a room - still a little self-aware, but much better than before

And today - I walked 3 miles on my lunch hour and wanted to more, but had to get back to work! Activity doesn't wear me down any longer and I actually enjoy it.

Congrats to you on your success! You look great!

My NSV today. Got my haircut tonite. The gal that normally cuts my hair hasn't seen me in 2 months. When she saw me she was all OMG. You look great. When she put the cape on me. She says your neck is so smalliI had no trouble snapping it. What a great feeling. 65 lbs pre-op just short of 4 weeks post-op another 45 lbs gone. Love my sleeve. It is gonna be a fun ride.

Had another NSV yesterday. Worked out with my SO for the first time in about 6 months. He couldn't keep up with me! I had to stop my lap on the track and wait for him to catch up. He used to lap me.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
