That's really a super duper bittersweet NSV!! My surgery is just under 3 weeks away.....I will definitely remember to wear correctly sized undies and pants that have elastic as well as a drawstring!! -

TJL replied to LipstickLady's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
OMG, that is sooo funny. At the same time it is a great NSV, and also a wake up call for me. I need to get out there and buy some new undies(I've been putting it off too cheap!) I don't want this this happening to me! -
I was walking down the main aisle trying to get my steps in and looking for something new and exciting to add to my soft/pureed foods diet when I felt a draft around my buttocks area. It took me a minute to realize that my knickers had fallen down inside my pants. The pants I am wearing today are about a size too big so when they fell, they fell deep down in there and it took awhile to pull them out. The NSV? No bright flash went off when I was fishing down my pants for my underwear and I've not appeared on peopleofwalmart.com yet.

Firefly - It is VERY liberating. Other than seeing my collarbone for the first time in years, this was probably the most exciting NSV I've had!!! Who would have ever guessed throwing perfectly good pizza away would feel so darn good!!!!!!?????

Shantelle, the weight loss will help with the aggravating acute pain. Pain will always be apart of our lives, but I think manageable is what us degens look for. Just to be able to participate in normal functions is great. I'm happy to say that I have managed to get myself back into horse back riding. Something that I wouldn't have dared to do just this past January. These are those NSV (non scale victories) they talk about and this one just makes me feel as free as being at a healthy weight

I'm going to make this one of my NSV -- to throw out perfectly fine food and not look back. I couldn't have done that -- I would have been feeding it to the dogs or something on the place (surely the raccoons would have liked that, right?). It's been enough for now that I'm okay with leaving a bite or two on the plate and then handing it over to my older cat if it's something he really likes to finish off. Since moving to more solid food I've been eating more and more fish and he loves it. I remember being in the kitchen one night and couldn't eat more than 2-3 bites of salmon. I didn't want to put it back in the fridge so I fed it to Alex. It was a little unsettling watching him eat that and realizing that my cat can now eat more food than me.

The things you will buy because they are on clearance...

The real NSV for me is this as I was trying on clothes and asking my wife's opinion, a couple of times she asked me if I was sucking my gut in, and I kept saying no. I finally had to suck it in to show her, and her eyes got really wide -
It is fantastic when we recognize NSV's. Plus this is something that you could never accomplish as a youngster too! BTW if I raise my arms too, I have a lot of skin hanging that I call my bat wings....... LOL Keep it up I realized the other day i like it when men look at my body now...... Never did before.

Congrats and best wishes on your 1st NSV, and all the more to come!

April 2013 Post-Op Group
MrsLulu replied to Wendilou's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Having weird cravings for the last couple of days. Can't sleep at all lately, and just craving pickles. I have gotten between 65-85 grams of protein every day, and drinking all kinds of things throughout the day. I have finally found protein bars that I like, and that is really helping me. I am even hitting above 600 cals which I wasn't for a long time. My hair is falling out Sooo bad! It is scary. I even have biotin, but still happening. Hope it doesn't get worse. NSV- because of the way I am cooking everyone in my family is losing weight. My little girl has a much stronger sense of eating to fuel your body and not just eat. She was chunky, but has lost 12 lbs now. So proud of her. -
I was honored to be invited to be the matron of honor in my friends wedding. I was pre-op when she asked me and actually I was nervous about it because I didn't have insurance approval yet and I wasn't comfortable in my own skin. Well I had the surgery and 2 weeks later we went to look at dresses. I tried a size 16 and it would only zipper about 1/2 way, knowing I would be losing weight I bought a 14. I am pleased to say that it fit relatively comfortably tonight, I am so beyond excited. I have 8 weeks to the wedding and I'm hoping it will need some alterations but I won't be greedy! This is the best feeling I have had in a very long time

Alright fellow July folk our month starts tomorrow! We have all been on this journey for months and our new lives will begin in the next few days. I am sure this will be a tough and trying couple of weeks but we will start having our own NSVs before we know it. Please remember not one of us needs to fight this battle on their own. Use this board to rant, brag, complain, and ask questions. July is going to be great!!!

OMG I'm out of my head excited!!!!! I had 4 huge boxes of "thin clothes" on my closet and 99% of it now fits!!! I tried them on yesterday. Size 14 and 12 pants, size large and medium tops!!!! I didn't realize I was that small yet, but went to a party Friday night and my friend told me that I looked tiny, and I realized my new size 16 Ann Taylor pants (omg yea, regular clothes!!) were already kinda droopy on me. I just bought them a month ago! Being a size 14 wasn't even on my radar... And the best part is I even missed the boat on a favorite coat which is kinda too big. Hah!!!!!!!!!!! So happy!!!

9 days post op.... weight loss stalled. so frustrated.
Cherie Murphy replied to Faith-ster's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Although I've lost during my post-op my surgeon told me at my one week check up to expect a gain during this time! He told me that it is totally natural. So don't give it any mind! Just heal! Drink plenty of fluids and if your like me who mentally feels like I have to go to the bathroom everyday my Dr suggested Miralax in my water! I think about my pre surgery life and if I got on the scale even once a month I most likely wouldn't be in this position! So take a break from the scale and look for some Non Scale Victories (NSV)!!! Like I have not needed a Prilosec since I had my surgery and my BP is almost normal! -
Great NSV! It was about 28 years from the time mine was cut off and the time I could actually had it fitted back together to wear it again. I have not removed it since getting it back on at Christmastime!
-
What a lovely NSV. So happy for you.

I haven't been able to wear my wedding ring sincere was pregnant with my daughter who is now 6 1/2. It fits today!!! I was sooo happy when it slid on that I was in tears!! I'm sooo excited!

That is a great NSV! One I look fwd to

I've been wondering what my first NSV might be...essentially trying things out that I couldn't do or was way too afraid to do before....well, we hit the pool today (me and my two little munchkins) and I was able to easily get in and out without having to use the ladder! I haven't hoisted my body up like that for a loooong time... The best part was that i didn't even think about it until i was already out of the pool. I just did it. When it hit me i just stopped in my tracks and if i was less worried about looking like a crazy lady i would have danced a little jig right then and there. It made me all the more motivated. I've been exercising too...running and Zumba have helped me build up my muscles and I know that's partly why it happened so naturally. Loving this and can't wait for more!
