Today I had an unexpected and surprisingly satisfying NSV. I noticed that my belly button shrank. It's about 50% shallower than it used to be! Who knew I would be so pleased about less depth to my belly button? ?

LOL....I guess it would be equally inappropriate to ask for pictures? LOL

Wow that's creepy what the hell.

Slightly inappropriate but seeing my vagina much better without the excess hip and thigh fat. [emoji1787]

Well...if we're going to go there...sex is waaayyyy better, lol!

That too! Lmaoooo

Honestly i wish I took a Before and After of my Va-jay-jay. Sigh. Opportunity missed!

Sleeping on the couch without half my body hanging off I fit now. ?

So I got a semi-funny one:

Last weekend me and Mr were out at a bar and upon coming back from the bathroom, he introduced me to some new people he met at his “trophy wife”.

The strong, independent woman in me is officially offended, but the slightly inebriated me was all giggly schoolgirl. ???

Granted, he was pretty drunk himself so…?

So, how was your first time introducing alcohol into your new body?

So cute!!

My surgery was in July, but My favorite NSV so far is: Went to universal and fit on every ride easily. Last time I went I couldn’t do two of the rides!

Love this!!! Although I never experienced it I did hear rumours of weight limits on some of the water rides at Volcano bay in FL? I avoided it last time I was on holiday in Florida to avoid embarrassment.. however I have a trip booked for Feb now the borders are open and I’m so excited to experience the US as a slimmer me. New hurdles and challenges lay ahead as eating my weight in pancakes and Olive Garden was my all time fave!!

Yes I’m interested in this too!! I had two cocktails on my 10 year wedding anniversary and it was very obvious I was drunk! I’m a cheap date now apparently. Is this just me that has two drinks and can’t speak? Or will it improve?

There’s a copycat Olive Garden Alfredo recipe that I have with broccoli and it’s to die for!! Olive Garden is also my fav ?? zuppa Toscana is also easy to make at home!!

Oh that wasn’t my first drinking with a post-wls bod.

im 3 years out now and drink quite regularly (bring on the concerned comments, I’m ready!)

my fIrst attempt at alcohol was 3-4 weeks post. I had maybe two sips of red wine and it slightly burned a little and I swear I could feel it travel down my intestines. With so little drank, it had no effect on me.

second attempt was closer to 2 months post had a few sips of a sugary soju drink and I had a several hour long dumping episode. Not pretty.

I probably had 5 or so PARTIAL drinks my ENTIRE weight loss phase. It got me tipsy quickly even with small amounts of less than 1/3 a drink, and I could tell I wouldn’t be able to drive….but I also sobered up really quickly.

fast forward to now and i can drink maybe 2 drinks in succession (like in under an hour) and be pretty toasted…if I nurse the drinks over a period of time I can keep from getting too drunk. And I still sober up really quick.

oh and I mostly stay away from sugary mixers if I can help it…

I keep telling my fiancé I'm gonna be his arm candy. ?

Today it has been a full month that I haven’t had to get up in the middle of the night to pee!! And no waking up with headaches either.. I was never tested for sleep apnea, but I suspect I had it and it’s gone now! ?
