Here's my most recent NSV! Went out with a "friend" the other night, and wanted to dress to impress. I think I managed it! Oh, and the shoes are the first heels I've worn in years! I wore them till 4 in the morning without too much pain!

I have a hard time believing it's real. Before surgery, I thought I would fail at this. I really did. I would read through all the NSV threads and never thought I'd be posting here!

Sell your old clothes on Poshmark, and then you'll have money to buy new ones! That's what I've been doing, it works great! Oh, for my latest NSV: Went shopping at American Eagle two days ago, a store that I always liked pre-surgery, but couldn't fit into any of their clothes... anyway I had tried on a size 8 jeans, and they were too big! I had to go to a size 6! -
Wow! No posts on here for awhile! I have had two NSVs in the last couple weeks that I was so excited about I had to share! 1) I have collarbones!!!! They're not skinny people collarbones yet, but they are most definitely there. I never woulda guessed. :sad0: 2) I went to a movie theater last week...and was shocked that I didn't need to use the armrests! I don't know that I have EVER had that happen. I've shrunk enough width-wise that my arms fit comfortably inside the armrests. Such a great one for me! :lol0: Keep posting here, guys! This is one of my favorite threads to read! :blushing:

I haven't had many NSV I'm only two months out so everything is slowly changing. Last week I had a few of my students make comments about how skinny I'm getting and how great I look- that is coming from HS students. I was also able to get into a pair of pants two sizes smaller today pants I haven't worn in at least 7 years-before I had my youngest!

I had the best NSV today. I have been writing and talking on the phone for about a month with this really hot guy. I found him on a dating site and wrote to him but never thought he would write back because he's so darn cute. I've been afraid to meet him even though he has seen my picture. We met today and had a great day. He had his hand on my thigh when we were sitting side by side and said he could feel all the muscle in my thigh. He is a personal trainer. He said he had a great day and can't wait to see me again. Whoa, I never thought a guy like that would ever be interested in me, even at goal. Needless to say, I am very excited.

Great NSV moment yesterday. I went to my daughter's graduation, and we all know how those things go--there are a million cars and you have to walk for miles to get from your car to wherever you are supposed to sit...Two months ago, I would have struggled to make the walk at all, and I definitely would have had to wear sneakers with an orthotic insert. Well not only was I able to make the walk easily--I wore some cute normal sandles that I haven't been able to wear for over 2 years because I had too much pain in my feet. WhooHoo!

@@TammyDTM i see two NSV's in your post wonderful about losing 77 lbs IMO the way you feel for other people is also an NSV being caring/sad about your family being overweight/unhealthy you might/are an inspiration to others possibly people will ask you info about the surgery since they see how well you are doing tell them how great you feel, your health improvements in general, how life is going great i have heard of people following suit and having the surgery keep up the good job kathy congrats

My latest NSV has to do with my dancing. I have posted that I started ball room dance classes last September. They are so much fun. Lately after our Wednesday lessons, a group of us have gone to a bar so we can dance some more. I have never been big into bars and I don't drink but I do love to dance. The past few times I have gone, I am not even in there 5 minutes before I have some guy wanting to buy me drinks and asking me to dance. This just seems so odd to me. Years ago when I use to go out, I felt like the biggest wall flower sitting around watching everyone else have fun.

A huge NSV for me this weekend... I went to the southern womens show yesterday with my sisters just like I do every year but this time I was able to walk through the turn style to get in instead of walking around it. I was so excited and thrilled!!!????????????

When I went in for my last check up with my surgeon he asked me if he could use me on his web site to tell my story. I told him when I lose another 20 pounds since I wasn't done yet. And I've lost 5 more since that appointment. Best NSV for me to date! -
Mine's a small nsv but today I found hose I can wear in a drug store. It's been a long time since that happened.

NSV in my 6th month.. Went to an appointment today. The receptionist has not seen me since I had surgery. (105 pounds ago) She was flat out shocked. She asked me if I stopped eating. I disclosed that I had sleeve surgery. She told me that I had better results than people she had seen on the biggest looser. Funny...she said I looked hot and grabbed my thigh..Humm how the hell do I take that. I have a hard time seeing what other people see when they look at me. I'm always taken back by responses that I get from people that knew me as morbidly obese. What a hilarious day

Dange, that is a great NSV! Finding bras that fit larger size woman who are well endowed can be difficult and expensive.

It was my turn at work to be the weekly meeting's "door greeter" today. I work with about 100 people and many hadn't seen me in months. I had no less than 5 people say "You've lost a lot of weight have'nt you?" and "You look slim and trim!" Happy NSV for me!

All of my December sleevers...
Oliver's Mom replied to blkdiamond377's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My husband was on vacation last week (I'm retired.) We had a friend here visiting from Indiana. We ate out every night, breakfast out at least 3 times too. We went to a Red sox game, partook of all of the July 4th celebrations in town. Weather was in the 90's the whole time. My NSV's - no weight gain at all! I know that I did not exercise as much as I have been. - being able to comfortably walk around town for all the festivities - being comfortable in the seats at Fenway - room to spare actually!! - having so much energy that folks were trying to keep up with me this year!! I made sure I got in all of my water - averaged about 90+oz a day. Continued to track on MFP, only 2 days I went over my 1200-by less than 60 calories. I feel like this was a good test for me - I know I can do this for life. I must say these last 11 pounds are stubborn, losing just oz at a time. But it will happen, for all of us December Sleevers!! -
Great thread.....always makes me grin to read the cool stories in here. Well.....had a NSV myself yesterday. I put on a pair of cargo shorts and shirt and wore 'em out and about on my excursions. The NSV part of this is that I haven't worn shorts outside of the house in years.....years. Oh, and the shirt.....was a size that I didn't think I'd be able to wear until late this coming Summer. It's actually too baggy right now. Fun stuff.

Share Your NSVs Here Please!

I had a funny NSV over the holiday. I was with my brother and nephew when my nephew's mom (my brother's ex) came to pick my nephew up. She was totally skunk eyeing me something wicked. She wouldn't even respond to my attempts at small talk. I was thinking "wow, she hates me!". Still, I just tried to ignore her and loved on my nephew. When it was time for them to leave, my brother walked them out. When he came back, he was laughing. Apparently, she had no idea who I was and assumed I was my brother's new girlfriend! LMAO! She asked him who I was (curse words included) and he laughed "ummm, you mean my sister?" He said her jaw literally dropped and she goes "no way! but she's so little now! It doesn't look like her at all!" My brother told her I'd lost over 200 pounds so it's no wonder she didn't recognize me. I guess she then felt bad for being such a b#tch to me. I laughed so hard!!- 440 replies

December 2013 Sleever Pounds Lost Log
MGR1852 replied to RunningA5K's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hi all! Had a great NSV today. I'm moved to "severely obese" now rather than being "morbidly obese" thanks to my 4 pound weight loss this week! That's 80.4 pounds down so far in this journey! I've had to get new clothes because my old ones are just falling off. Great problems to have! HW 322 (March 2013) SW 278 (Dec 16, 2013) CW 241.6
