OMG NSV!

[scootergirl 118]

Oh my goodness (OMG). I had a wonderful non-scale victory (NSV) this past week. I flew on an airline for the first time since surgery. Last flight was one year ago and I suffered mucho embarrassment when I required a seat belt extender for each leg of my flight. Once, I had to request it while sitting next to my tall, ex-model coworker whose eyes nearly popped out of her head when she realized that I could not buckle my seat belt without the extender. This flight I had seat belt room-to-spare on every plane and every different style belt. Yippee! This has been the best NSV yet. I feel like a "normal" person again. I hadn't even realized that I previously did not!

it comes in little bits and pieces... like when you realize the steering wheel isn't hitting your tummy anymore...or that you NEED to move the seat up now

movie seats are comfy again

you can cross your legs

so many little, wonderful, miracles that happen in our lives every day now that it doesn't matter what the scale says... we are just so HAPPY!!!

Congratulations!!!!!

Enjoy all of these NSV's. There are all important. I think we often get hung up on that number on the scale and we don't look at the other things!

When I flew in Nov. I was able to put the table down all the way in front of me too. The last time I flew I had to share my hubby's because I could not move it one inch! Same story with the extender...Room to spare and had hubby take pics of the table..I was so stoked..Wait you'll see what happens next............All good stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep I told my husband that I can't wait to be able to cross my legs. Seems so stupid but in my mind it is a big deal.

Crossing the legs is a good one! I find myself doing it all the time now that I can! Those NSV's are great!
