i didnt eat any candy this halloween. i stuck a tootsie roll special edition (vanilla) in my mouth. chewed a couple of times and spit it out. not something i intended, but DD needed one in half. it was an instinct just to bite it and eat the other half. sooo glad i thought and out it went. i was banded October 2006, i found one pic that DH snapped while i (begrudgingly) posed with DD last year. this year, i wanted to see the difference. 102.25 lbs down from last halloween. yeah, i can see it!

Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming...

Ok, so I set my goals, got back on track, finally broke my stall.....now what? Now....you keep doing what you've been doing, that's what! I need to remind myself that this is a change in my lifestyle - there's no end, there are stages (or levels, as Kramer would say). This is my 'stick to the plan & lose dat ass' stage. Once I get to goal, it's the 'don't mess this up' stage. But I don't ever get to go back to my old habits. Maybe I'll get to have some of the old foods I ate; a taste occasionally, but never at the amounts I used to consume. And is that really a bad thing? I'm starting to think it's not.... I decided to update my goals a bit: Lose 20 lbs - complete! Get under 200 lbs - complete! Lose 45 lbs - complete! Get to 190 Lose 50 lbs Get to 186 Get to 180 Get to 169 Get to 160 Get to 155 Get to 150 Get to 145 Get to 140 Get to 135 Get to 125 Get to 120 Not totally inspired, but at least it gives me something to work towards! Next task - work on some NSV goals to add into this list. Because as I lose more weight the losses are going to slow down. And I know I'll get discouraged and reach for something comforting. Like a jar of marshmallow fluff. -
What does nsv mean?
-
So I have been sick since Friday and that totally sucks but as of this afternoon my BMI is 29.9 and I am officially no longer obese. I have lost 90 lbs since 12/12/12 and I am only 30-35lbs away from my goal and I am not scheduled to be there until 12/12/13. Just keeping an eye out for my silver lining. lol

Congrats on the NSV! We missed you!

Amazing. I can cross my legs now, without having to lift them up with my arms. I have not been able to do that in five years. I can bend down and not have to have something near me to help push me up. I can get into the car without feeling like I am a contortionist. I can fit in a restaurant booth without my stomach touching the table. Amazing.

NSV means "non-scale victory" -- the triumphs we experience that have nothing to do with the specific number on the scale. Welcome, btw, and congratulations on your banding!!

Jana, That is so great! It am sure it is so nice to get compliments from people who don't know about your surgery. Just to make you feel a bit better, My sponsor told me that people didn't notice that she had been losing weight until she had lost over 70 lbs. Grats on your NSV!!!!!!!!

LapBandit replied to geordieboy's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
PB'ing (Productive Burping) When you burp and junk comes with it. NSV (Non Scale Victory) A weightloss success that didn't directly involve the scale.) LBT (Lap Band Talk) This site. VGB (?) I think it stands for another surgery. TOM (Time Of the Month) The monthly visit from aunt Flo. Ha Ha. I hope that helps! Yeah, all the abbreviations can sometimes take awhile to figure out! -

Yesterday morning, my DH looked at my stomach (I was in bed, lying flat on my back) and said something like "WOW. Your stomach is hardly there. It used to mound up lots higher." :bananajump: :Banane20:

My immediate staff coworkers have known from very early on that I was banded. But there is a volunteer that comes is once a week. (I work at a church). She said that I looked like I had lost weight. She is the very first one that noticed. When I said 30 lbs, she was astounded! She said since the last time I saw you? (No, she saw me last week.) However, when I admitted that I had WLS, she was aghast! She had only heard of GB and thought I was nowhere near overweight enough to do that. When I explained what it was all about, she was relieved and very interested. That was just ever so cool!

actually, I haven't met most of the NSVs I thought I would. That said, the diffent NSVs I have had blow my mind. In March when I flew home for my surgery, I had to have a belt extender. This week when I flew home from Vegas I actualy needed to tighten the belt. HOLY SH*T! I mean HOLY SH*T!!!!! I just crossed my legs! Okay, Corinne! This was one of the things on my NSV to-do list!!!!!

Got to post this one in share your nsv's here, I had about the same thing happen to me at the beginning of March , I stopped by where I used to work and one of my old Managers that is like in his 20's looked at e and said dang you have lost a LOT of weight and you look real good , made this 50 yr, Lady feel good , but then I told him I always looked good , there was just more of me , just y sense of humor , he knew it, but I was trying to talk to ne else and he kept staring so it made e feel real good, I know I like the compliments and that is great for you , I bet that made your day for some one to say that you were skinny, I will never e skinny , but I will take healthy and for some one to say that they notice I have los weight. -
Living The Nsv's At The Moment

Congrats to you! I relate to your NSVs. A glamour shot? That is a huge NSV. I hope you post it here when you do it. I let my friend take a photo of me today. It was scary, but it felt so good to not be afraid. Celebrate every moment of your new life!
