My first NSV!!!



Recommended Posts

Hey guys I dont know if this counts as a NSV but my bf and I went to the movies yesterday to see "A Sharks Tale' and I instantly noticed how much better I fit in the seats!! LoL i guess it's the little things but it just pepped me up and made me feel really good about myself!!! I wasnt all overlapped onto him as usual (thank god he's skinny :cool: ) I was in my OWN seat!! Sorry I just had to share!!!

YAY!!! Yes. That's a NSV! These are among the first: fitting into seats at the movie, not needing an extender on a plane, sliding into booths without having to move the table, buckling your seatbelt in the car and having room between you and the steering wheel! Welcome to the beginning of the rest of your life! :cool: Congrats!

Thanks guys you are the best! I dont know about not needing an extender on a plane, but the seat belt one is getting a little easier too! It's the little things that make it all worth while! Because in the end they add up to one BIG thing,,,a new LIFE!!!!

Thanks guys

Katie, congratulations!! This past summer I had a similar NSV when eating at outdoor cafes. I had to stop worrying about whether the cafe furniture would work for me--it always did! Isn't it great to feel like you fit better in the world?

Sorry guys I had to ask the first time too! NSV is a no scale victory! For instance if the scale stops moving but say you fit better in the seat at the movies...thats a NSV!!!! Or if your clothes fit better or you get compliments on how great you look! Anything that DOESN'T have to do with the scale!

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
