Nsv: Eating At A Food Court Post Surgery
gamergirl posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
So we decided to walk in a mall tonight. We head to the food court to get dinner and I have to go to the bathroom. My husband is going to wait for me. I come back in four minutes and he says, "I'm really sorry, but I ate without you" and shows me four toothpicks of free food they gave him as he strolled by the various stalls there. Yup, four pieces of chicken and the man is too full for dinner. I know people thought we were crazy when we both burst out laughing. We went to get me some chicken from a thai place there and it took a while for them to understand we didn't want rice or noodles just chicken. Then we made them put half the chicken back because we would never have finished it. And then we didn't even want a drink! We were no fun, I tell you and dinner was $4.24. For both of us. You can relate, can't you? hasn't life changed? -
I'm going to start a new NSV thread since I can't find the one I used to post on. Anyhoo...! I had a beautiful coat in the closet for at least 15 years or more. I just tried it on, it fits!! I'm so excited that I might have to christen it with my hubs!

How about some NSVs!?!?
PittGuy replied to shyanne's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
November has been NSV month for me. I have been to two college football games and an NFL game with even thinking about being a tight squeeze into the seat. Tomorrow I fly out to TN and am not stressed on where I will be sitting on the flight and when I get to TN I am going to be in a tree stand that I am not too heavy for. -
That is a great NSV, and story! Hurrah!

Agreed. I've seen enough "one-ups" on here to not make me want to post my NSV, stats, etc. ever! But again, I'm slightly dramatic haha I'm sorry that happened to you, LV. This certainly isn't the venue for that kind of nonsense. You know you're killing it. Don't ever let someone make you question your success!

Major Nsv...at Least For Me It Is!
Watchershrink83 posted a topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Hey, hey, hey...everyone! This is the only place I can post this and someone will totally understand why I'm so happy. Today the hubs and I decided to make it a movie night. We had a busy afternoon, therefore this evening we just wanted to chill. My hubby decided that he would order pizza for dinner. Now in my last post I explained how pizza is my kryptonite, so when he said pizza my mouth immediately started to Water. Anywho, the pizza arrived smelling supa (my version of super) delicious and I couldn't focus for a few minutes! However I am ecstatic to report that I didn't have a single slice!!! I'm doing my happy dance as I'm typing this. I'm even more excited because this triumph comes on the eve of my fist fill. Woot, woot! I had to share this because my biggest battle with weight loss happens between my ears. Tonight was a major victory for me. And on that note, have a splendid evening everyone. -

18 lbs is not slow. You're doing great! Debbie, my NSV is (TMI ALERT!!!) getting my period on my own. It's been several years since that's happened. OK, maybe it's not really a victory after all. LOL!!! PS I'm hungry. Now I understand bandster hell. -

Non Scale Victories "nsv"
FLORIDAYS replied to NewMeDebbie's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I can see the link on my iPad for some reason but my favorite NSV was one say about 8 months post op I needed to adjust the seat in my car to reach the peddles. I am tall and always had to have the seat as far back as it would go to accommodate my 77" hips!!! As I lost the weight my butt shrank and I would have to adjust the seat!! -
Our family just took a trip to Disney and I was feeling like a month post op the weight wasn't coming off. That is until my husband showed me the pics. Yeah! I can finally see it

Feeling Defeated And Depressed
elli'smommy replied to SarahBeth's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm 4.5ish months out as well (7/3). I've lost 79lbs. It's been small steady amounts with some weeks w 0 loss. I think we are still in a good range. I know it's frustrating to not see that scale move but try to focus more on NSVs like how your clothing feels, your energy levels, coming off RX meds, and your overall mood. Hang in there. We can do this!! Prayers :-) -
Hello Congratulations on your surgery date! Excitement is definitely a better a better emotion to start the adventure with. An adventure it certainly is as each day I have small NSV's (non scale victory). Easier to move, clothes loosing up, etc. I am 3 weeks out from surgery and had similar questions asked by it seemed like everyone that I knew as the surgery date got closer. My typical response was "no, I've researched it thoroughly and I am confident this is what I need to do". Once people saw that I was confident about it they backed off a little. I go back to work next week and am expecting a deluge of "how much have you lost?" LOL - much better question given all that effort put forth to make it happen.

Huge Huge Huge Nsv For Me! I Am So Excited!
VSG AJH replied to LipstickLady's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
This is a dream of mine. Even mentioned my desire to do a mud run at my psych eval. Fortunately, even that didn't make me seem too crazy for surgery. Congrats on your super awesome NSV!! -
Okay, so it was freezing out this morning and as soon I started my van the tire pressure light came on; I went to a local store that has air and had a guy (a very nice looking one) come from around the OTHER side of my van to "help" me put air in my tires…He then proceeded to check every tire on my van to make sure they were all good. I was like WOW!! I'm happily married, but it sure made me feel good!!!
