NSV means "non-scale victory." These are the successes we all experience that are not tied to the numbers on the scale. It's very important to observe and Celebrate these, because as we all know the numbers LIE. Smaller clothes and new physical achievements are more important than the simple dropping of pounds. You'll be celebrating yours before you know it! :)

You guys are so great. Jamin aren't you next week?? We both have 102 to go. I would saw I'd race you but you have 6 -8 weeks on me. So you'll have to save a spot for me on the healthy, thin, feeling fabulous side of life.

Debbydo~Yes my surgery is Friday the 18th of March !!! That is so cool we have exactly the same amount of weight to lose. I'm saying my goal is to get to 150 but if I lose the 102 and get to 150 I say I'll keep trying for more like 135 . I will DEFFINATLY SAVE YOU A SPOT ON THE HEALTHY SIDE IN BAND LAND OKAY!!!! LOL!!!

Hey you never know we might could race. It would give us an insentive to lose thats for sure. Either way we will both get to our goals and be healthy again. When is your surgery date Debbie?You said about 6 weeks but what is your date?GOOD LUCK!!! Jamie

No exact date yet but my final consult with the surgeon is April 1. I have a family vacation 4/23-4/30 in Disney World. Do not want to be a newbie bandster on vacation. I'm hoping for the first week in May. I have a liberal PPO policy so the surgeon is pretty confident( Because of experience) I won't have trouble getting approved. Who know's I'm trying not to get tooooooooooooooo excited just in case the insurance thing takes long or falls through.

Day after St Patrick's day. Does beer count as a pre opt liqiud LOLOLOLOLOL

You want to get to 115 , how tall are you???

I'm 5 9" I would be a waff at 115. 140 is my goal. I remember feeling really good at that weight.

Debbie I said I would like to get to 135 not 115. I'm only 5'0 tall so I think around 135 would be small eough . Plus I am Large boned and I would look like a skeleton if I weighed 115 TOO! LOL!! My first goal is 150 that is the smallest I've ever been and that was after I lost close to 70 pounds to get there. So I figure that 150 would be realistic for me.

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
