To Own A Scale, Or Not...
♥LovetheNewMe♥ replied to LizAndrews's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Early in this journey, I only weighed myself when I went to see my physician. Now that I am at goal, I get on the scale eveymorning before showering. I want to make sure I stay at this weight. The only reason I did not weigh daily when losing was becasue I did not want to become a slave to my scale. I lost a lot of inches while building muscle and it would have been depressing not to see the numbers get lower. So I say yes own scales but don't allow the scales to rule your thoughts on WL, there are many NSV along this journey. -
My purse fits on the car seat with me!

So..I am having a "fat" day..we women and granted some men have these...for all my hard work ..I still feel fat..so I decided to pull out my pictures..and I will share them here ..7 months out down 111-113# (depends on the time of day, clothes..ect ect). ..so remember when you are feeling down...pull out that post op picture that you really didn't want to take of yourself..you'll be thankful you did..because I always want to remember where I have been, where I am at...and where I am going! 12 hours before surgery 4-3-12: 6 month anniversary 10-3-12 down 98# And today 11-16-12 fluctuating between 111-113# down ...still feeling fat but know that I have come a long way and still have more to go..but I will keep on keeping on! Hang in there folks! Take pictures and measurements and keep your chin up..it gets better!

Me And My Dog And My Nsv... This Is So Funny
lowe1961 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have a dog her name is Lolly she is a boston terrior. We live near a very busy highway in a apartment. And when I opened up the door she took off. Now here I am in my pj's, I have dinner cooking on the stove. And this dog is fast. Well she runs next to the highway up 2 very steep hills before i caught her. If I would have not had this surgery In July. I would have never been able to keep up with her. So if anyone saw a crazy looking women running down the side of 141 wearing a purple robe , It was me. And of course it was rush hour traffic. Well my dog is sound asleep now , she seems to be wore out. And I burned some extra calories today.- 5 replies

Yep, same problem. I finally had mine re-sized, just 8 lbs from goal. It is an AMAZING NSV, but re-sizing is expensive right now, especially for gold. I used ring sizes for a long while and highly recommend them. They don't have to be jewelry store quality to work. It is just temporary. As someone said... yarn works too!

ProudGrammy replied to Strangefruit's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Strangefruit good for you - great NSV portion control can be difficult to teach yourself - you are doing great famous last words of my NUT/surgeon "eat until you are full, then stop 2 bites earlier " 3 weeks post op - what a winner you are!!!!! keep up the good work -
Guess what? I did it!! Another nsv... participated in my first spin class this morning! Woohoo!!!!

Slowly Learning Portion Control - Nsv
Strangefruit posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am a little over three weeks post op.. Today I made 1/2 cup of soup... and STOPPED with 3 tsp left... Since being allowed soft foods, it has really been hard for me to leave 2-3 tsp in the bowl... I would eat the "serving" and realize belatedly that it was the last bite or two that caused the pain and/or vomiting. I stopped... I feel fine (weird leaving only 2-3 bites) but feel physically fine! Definitely a none scale victory! -

When Will I Notice Something? When Did You, And What Was It?
barb rah replied to barb rah's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks everyone. It was interesting and fun to read everybody's "aha moment' story. It's funny, but a couple days ago I looked in the mirror and thought "is my face slimmer". Didn't know if it was just hopeful thinking. The next day my sister said my face looked thinner!!YES!! That'll tide me over till the next nsv. -
Good job! I am planning on staring the C25K program as soon as my doctor releases me to. Keep up the good work. I can't wait to experience this nsv!

So, lately I've been bummed and stuck on a plateau around 50lbs loss, but today during my couch to 5k I ran and enjoyed it! Never thought I would jog for almost 20 minutes and be happy about it!

Fiddleman didn't want to erase any of your great post great NSV's - walking, normal stride, no more rubbing - serious terrific new standards of life turn those things around when they were bad - so glad life is improving keep it up

Here is something I noticed the other day when out for my daily walk with my dog. When I am out walking, my gait is normal and flat on my foot. One foot lines up in front of the other and nothing's rubs except a slight touch right above the knees. This feels so much better when walking then before when my inner thighs would rub to redness. My natural gait is now a pretty quick clip and it feels fine. And yes, it feels more comfortable to cross my legs then not when sitting for a long time. The only issue with sitting a long time is my bony butt now gets a little uncomfortable.

Yay for having fun with intimacy finally! I thought that I was going to feel very insecure and uncomfortable, but I'm not. One of my favorite NSVs =)
