I buttoned my shorts today (day #3 post-op) without having to pull both sides tight and sucking in my gut! First NSV of many to come. :)

I was able to cross my legs comfortably in the passenger seat of a car the other night. I was so excited!

What is NSV?

It stands for "Non scale Victory". Those are things that happen due to the weight loss that you can't measure on a scale.< /p>

There are 1000's of them, such as: being able to fly in an airplane without using a seatbelt extender, having the strength and stamina to climb a small mountain, no longer having a medical condition or significantly lessened (such as sleep apnea, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure), clothes that you could not wear because they were too tight are now too loose, you now like having your picture taken or looking into mirrors, etc.

My first NSV was when my back stopped hurting after losing the first 15 lbs. I'm now 2 months post op and down 40lbs and today I realized I can cross my legs again. YAY!

Pulling up a pair of pants I could not get over my hips a couple weeks post op.

So many more since then- buying from the regular sized racks, finding my cheek bones, sitting criss- cross in the front passenger seat on a long car ride, hiking with my husband and many many more- 14 weeks post op today.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
