I'd no longer qualify for WLS!

Since surgery, I've been having a great time celebrating each time the second digit in my weight goes down. I get off the scale and actually say out loud, "see ya, 270s!" And 260s and 250s.

Now I'm happy to meet another milestone. At my current weight, I'd no longer have the BMI to qualify for WLS!

Just want to share my joy! I'm still fairly early out (a little over two months) and I know the best is yet to come!

  • Congratulations I too believe in celebrating small goals. I had my weight loss surgery in 2007 and have "yet" to make it to goal. I would of given up long ago if I did not Celebrate NSV's or short

    You're the first person I've come across anywhere to notice this NSV. Nifty. Or is it an SV? Who cares? We take nifty wherever we find it. Keep going.

You would be surprised how many WLS patients think they are failures because they do not reach their weight loss goal.

I on the other hand am extremely grateful every day for having my active life back.
