My only set back is Starbucks. It is difficult for me to get fast food down. Congrats on a great NSV.

Ok...today I realized that I have lost the same amount of weight as my 10 year old son weighs. Now, I can't even pick him up because he is heavy. So to know that I have lost in weight what a 10 year old boy weighs is mind boggling. By the time that I lose all my weight...I will have lost a whole person. Can't seem to grasp my mind around it. Yikes! cindy

Hello Everyone; I love this thread!!! I've just been reading as of late, but finally had an NSV, (at least that I've really noticed)!!! I haven't really been able to change sizes yet and that may be because all of my clothes were too tight, but are fitting better. Needed a dress for a formal affair taking place soon and decided to shop in the closet. I was able to wear a dress that I wore three years ago when I'd lost nearly 60 pounds!!!! The funny thing is that I was 30 pounds lighter than I am now and the dress still fits. So yes, I have lost more inches with the band!!! I do love my band!!!

Thank you for the support!!! It's nice to share with others that get it. I think I'm boring my family with my excitement. :-( I have another NSV to share... I am sitting here now wearing a size 18 pair of jeans that a friend had given me a few months ago. When she gave them to me, I couldn't even get them over my butt! LOL This is a good day and I plan to revel in it!

I'm really pleased for you. It's great when the numbers show success, as well as the NSVs. Good luck to you.

I have lost almost 70 pounds now... I went from a 26 to a loose 16 now... I still was not seeing it... But..... This morning, as I was hugging my daughter, she said Mommy, you may not see it but look, she said I could never get my arms all the way around you. Now not only can I get them around you but look I can grab my wrist too!! With tears I said, WOW, I guess I have lost some... & what a great way to have finally opened my eyes to see it but with a great big hug from my daughter!!!! I do not think there will be another NSV that can top that one (for me anyway)

I am so happy right now! I was down another 1.5 pounds today and when I plugged it into my spreadsheet I saw some things that just made me stop and take a moment to process. Total loss: 42.6 Total percent lost: 15% Total remaining: 30% I have lost 1/3 of the weight I want to lose in 5 1/2 months! That potentially means that in a year from now I could be at goal if I keep losing at the same rate!!!! The best one of all... my BMI is now at 36.8 (down from 43.3) Some NSVs for today as well... I'm wearing my size 20 jeans again (even though they are completely out of style) I'm wearing a size XL sweatshirt that is not a MANS XL! I'm just taking a moment to savor the unexpected side effects of this journey. What a day!

I have a funny NSV today. I love taking baths, but I hate that my tummy was always so big it stuck out of the water like one of the Hawaiian islands surrounded by the sea! LOL! My belly was always cold and looked so stupid poking out of the water. I took a bath today, and the water completely covered me - tummy and all. Hee Hee!

I had a wonderful NSV today. Went to Walmart and happened to pass swimsuits and looked and saw some with longer skirts that will cover tummy hangover. I knew an18 would fit so I took a 16 knowing by summer I could wear it. Got home, tried it on and it's only a little tight, I could wear it now. When I took it off I realized it was a 12-14 missy. I almost fainted. That was happy NSV for me!!!!!!

Hey fellow VV's. I have quite an interesting NSV to share today... It was the strangest feeling but, as I am at work today :gag:, I was sliding all around in my chair. I noticed a significant difference in the way my chair slides with me now. It is so smooth and quick, where before, it was quite hard to maneuver. Embarrassing to say... Wow, it mostly the little things that happen, that make you realize your body is changing - for the better!

I have a NSV to report. Today I went into Marshalls and bought a size L top and size 16 jeans (from the misses section). Neither one was from the plus size department! I realize that I can still buy plus size clothes or squeeze into "normal" clothes. I was thinking of looking in the plus section. But then I thought to myself, I never want to wear plus size clothes again. It feels so good to realize how I took my body from a 2x top and 26 bottom to L top and 16 bottom. :embaressed_smile: -

Congrats everyone! Would someone tell me what NSV is??

I know exactly how you feel. I went to Ross Dress for Less and bought 6 dresses (they were 11/12s) and 3 shirts that were Mediums. It felt great! Congrats on the NSV and keep up the good work.

although I should be embarrassed to admit this... I was carrying the twins down to their room today and I had one in each arm...and I DID NOT have to turn sideways to get through the door. All three of us fit through the door!! :thumbup::biggrin:It was really exciting...and made up for the fact that they were being SOOOO ANNOYING! :thumbup: Also, at the gym today, the lady in childcare asked me if I was losing weight...she said that I look like an entirely different person:biggrin:...but the crazy thing is, I've only been there since 20 lbs ago...and there are still people I've known forever who haven't said anything...go figure! Anyway...just wanted to share because it felt amazing. When I was pregnant with the twins, I was as wide (front to back ) as the width of the door. CRAZY! :tt2: Rain
