This week I realized I had 2 NSV. The first one is my 8yr old can hug me (at my thickest belly part) and reach his arms all away around me. No more half hugs here! I almost cried when I realized he can now fully hug me, not just part of me.

My 2nd victory is being able to have a regular shower towel wrap around me and cover all my bits. No more need to use a beach towel!

I might be at a stall right now, but these NSVs are encouraging me!

Nothing like a full hug to get you happy and dry. I'm so happy for you.

Thank you all so much. I knew you all would understand. I tried explaining to no WLS people,and they did that fake happy bc they truly don't understand.
