NSV anyone?

I've been running on my elliptical trainer every day. I try to push myself hard and know I'm really "running" when the fat at the inside of my knees starts flapping. This morning no matter HOW fast I went, I could NOT get that fat to FLAP! There's just not enough fat down there to flap anymore.

Now THAT'S an NSV!!!

My ultimate goal is to be a totally unflappable gal.

:D

ROTFLMAO!!

I have the vision of my own knees flapping... Not a pretty sight.

So glad for you. Unflappable is a good goal!

Great job on legs Kare and I'm with Bubbame, my arms would be flapping and would probably be abe to take flight.

OK I have 2 NSV's. Last week I tried on my fat jeans that I have not been able to wear in a couple of years. I can zip them and breath at the same time. The next step is sitting in them and breathing at the same time.

Also, with 40 pounds gone I was in 2 positions the weekend that I stayed away from because they were not comfortable. Whoooohoooo Ride Em Cowboy!!!!

I had a NSV lastnight. I live in Dalton, GA and the Dr's here that does the lapbands put on th 1St annual fashion show I was one of the models. I have to say I never thought that I would ever do something like that, I'm still on cloud nine. I had to go buy something to wear so I went Cato's and found a little black dress and was able to shop in the normal sizes clothes. So you can actually say that I had 2 NSV's

I had one this weekend, for years I have always wanted to be able to shop at stores like Gap, OLD NAVY,etc. This weekend I was able to buy a skirt at the GAP that I can fit into now. I opened the door of the dressing room to show my husband and I stood there crying a like a baby. I got the funniest looks by people walking by. I wanted to tell everyone in that store why I was crying. These little NSV's are great. My husband bless his heart he just hugs me and tells me to keep going and there will be more of the NSV's. I love him so much without him I don't think I could have gone this far.

This weekend my husband and I were out at a bbq fest, and he said I looked "HOT". I went for my fill and the Dr. told me I am no longer obese--yeah!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      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!!
