Ok I had surgery 4/23 and have lost 40 pounds and it's just now sinking in that I am getting closer to onederland.. But the best thing ever was before surgery I couldn't even reach my feet to tie my shoes and last night I watched tv for hours sitting indian style with my legs folded and comfortable!

Plus I tied my shoes this morning haha

Brandy - that is awesome! I don't ever think of my legs shrinking. I'm concentrating on my middle (I guess it bothered/bothers me the most). I was the same way - lol

I couldn't tie my shoes, bend over to pickup anything. Can you cross your legs yet? Oh that's a biggie!

Yes I CAN! I just tried haha.. Thanks for the idea!

I started at 267 and this morning hit 227!

I am a shorty though so my weight is like compact haha I am 5' 2"

Now I gotta think of new things to try to see if I can do them.

Ooh, here's another one. I realised this past weekend I could sit with my legs toward my chest and rest my arms on top of my knees. I was at the beach and did it...the stomach didn't block me! I was so giddie! I love NSV's!!! Keep posting! :-) You don't realise the simple things that we miss because we're fat.

I don't want to sound stupid, but what does NSV stand for?

The only stupid question is the one never asked :eek:

NSV= Non scale Victory

Congratulations on your NSV!!! Those are great ones. The one I love the very most I think is going into a restaurant and being able to sit at a booth. With room to spare. I can still remember the day that happened. I cried.
