Have any NSV's to post? Non-scale victories... Even though the scale may not be moving down just yet, weight loss results in other forms.

I put on a pair of 18 jeans that I could not pull up and close in about a year...and they fit!!!!! And they went up with ease!!!! My work pants are also sooooo baggy! YAY!!

Let's hear it May Flowers and Shrinko De'Mayos!!

Keep It Up Jennifer!!!!!!!!!!

A from from church asked me if I was on a diet because it looked like I had lost some weight. I am so close to wearing a 16 but 18s are a little big. One of my favorite pants now pulls up to my bra! Not wearing them any more. My hubby is proud and glad we decided to do this for my health and confidence.

o.k. got tired of my bras so I dug thru my old ones that I kept. I Threw 1 then another and another over on the bed, thinking there is no way any of them would fit me. To my surprise:ohmy:not only 1 fit, but 3 fit and the best part...they are 2 sizes smaller band size than what I have been wearing!:thumbup:Lucky enough my cup has'nt gotten to small. I have always fluctuated between a c & d. So I had some c cups. Hopefully I won't get smaller than a c. :smile:

ok, just thought i'd share: i'm down one dress size (20) and one shirt size (1x). this is soooo awesome!!!:smile2:

My size 10 panties are too big!!!!

My daughter picked out 2 shirts, the baby-doll cut ones..lots of compliments.

I can get into my saved size XL's, 14-16W's

An old pair of flipflops fit now, no more feet swelling!!

My knees haven't hurt since surgery, nor back.

NO HEADACHES from all the sweets!!

My periods are regular again.

and...my DH loves on me more!!!!!

The best thing so far is at the park with my 4 year daughter and I was able to slide, swing, and even "race" her.... Have NEVER been able to play with her that way. That's one of the biggest reasons I did this. It was a good feeling.

I played tennis with my son on Friday and ran after the ball!

So I've been pretty busy lately, and I hadn't really noticed mush weight loss, but I went back to work a few days ago and people (who don't know about my surgery) all thought I looked amazing! Also, My work pants were super baggy and kept hanging down my butt all night. I'm sure all the guests at the wedding didn't think it was nice, but I sure did! (I'm a banquet waitress at a country club lol) My work shirt was too big so they gave me a womens large and it fit! (I always had to wear a mens large) I can't wait until I need a new tuxedo vest, I still fit into the mens large, but I can't wait to wear a women's vest!

Congratulations everyone!! I had to go buy an outfit for a wedding this weekend. I was sorta dreading it, but I bought a pair of pants that were a size small than I have worn in a LONG time. I also had to throw out some capris that were sagging so bad it was embarrassing!! It felt good to donate them to someone else!!

Okay, my first NSV. I went to Disneyland with my grandson Sunday morning, 1st the pants I wore was 2 sizes smaller with out beinging tight.

Thought that was awesome, Got to Disneyland, got on our first ride, Space Mountain and the lap bar went down farther than it ever has. It was really a lap bar for the first time.

i went to the store sunday and got a size 20w thinking i can fit these by sept 6 ( b-day) my daughter looked at me and said mom try them on i bet you can fit them you lost inch as well as weight i did and gurlfriends they fit! and button, and zipped and yes i cryed a lil to go from a 26w before surgery then 24w 2months ago to a 20w WOW!!!!!!! (singing ) O' Happy day.... i pray i keep it up my goal is to be a 16 by may 5th of 2009.. i think i can ,,, i think i can, come on ladys say it with me "WE CAN"!!!! yahoooooooooo

Hey? Where is everybody with their NSV's? I have been sooooooooo busy but I had an NSV today and I wanted to share!!

I had to buy size 22 jeans the last time I bought jeans because my old ones didn't fit. But they were so cute that I wanted to keep them. Well today before I got in the shower I thought, I wonder how far up my thighs those old jeans can come? My 22 jeans are baggy in the bottom. So...I put on the old jeans (tight/stretchy size 20 but fit like an 18)......and they fit!!! They fit better than the last time I could wear them! I can sit, stand, and bend comfortably in them!

Also - I have to buy new pants for work. I usually keep 2 pairs of black slacks but now they are both too big! I have to put safety pins in 1 pair and luckily the other pair is drawstring. Today when I got home, the regular pair I was able to take off without undoing a button or the zipper!! I am happy! This is real important to me because the scale has been stagnant.....hope everyone is doing well!

ok, ok, lol... i'll post a small NSV:

i can feel my collar bone again, its not covered by fluff as much, not noticable yet, but i can feel it!!!

Haha when I lay down my hip bones jut out and are very hard and protruding now lol. Every woman in my family has always complained about having massive hip bones that jut out and look so strange against their tiny, skinny bodies. Well anytime anyone was ever talking about this I would just laugh and be like, well I don't think I have hip bones. I could never feel or see them but now I can! Yay!

Ah, the simple things like crossing my legs. It's a habit but with more weight to carry, the legs do not want to cross and stay there comfortably. Yesterday in church, I crossed my legs and voila! I can do it again.

NSV TIME!!

Holy crap. I went into Walmart to get some new jeans (IMHO, better than any expensive jeans I have purchased). I started at a 26 and have been wearing some 24s as well. Walking around Chicago this weekend, it was apparent that I had to break down and buy some clothes. I bought a few things last week, but not jeans. Mostly comfy stuff, workout clothes, summery casual stuff.

Anyway, for sh-ts and giggles, I picked up a pair of 20s along with the 22s.

THEY FIT!!!!

I am beside myself... the teens are on their way, baby!!
