  1. what does NSV mean?

  2. NSV Alert!!! I bought a dress 2 years ago and wore it once with it being VERY snug, well, I put that dress on yesterday and not only did it fit but it was a little big. I LOVE MY SLEEVE (even though I get frustrated with it, I LOVE IT)

  3. Awesome NSV (non-scale victory...) Blood pressure last week was 120/70!!! Had been much higher than that earlier! Woo hoo!

  4. So happy Monday everyone...and my good news of the day: I bought size 12 jeans on Friday and they're not even snug!!! That was my goal from the beginning so it's a huge NSV!!

  5. 12 Day Post-op NSVs: No more pain meds, wearing jeans and slept on my tummy last night! Also 1 pound away from my wedding weight. #wls

  6. My first #wls NSV! First, I got a job call back yesterday for the first time in well over a year! And we... http://tumblr.com/x2f20yixjy

  7. I was at a HS football game tonight. Saw a woman I've known in passing for years, I waved and said hello, and she looked at me with a confused blank stare. Then it dawned on me- she didn't recognize me. LOL! Awesome NSV.

    Nsv!

    Ooh, here's another one. I realised this past weekend I could sit with my legs toward my chest and rest my arms on top of my knees. I was at the beach and did it...the stomach didn't block me! I was so giddie! I love NSV's!!! Keep posting! :-) You don't realise the simple things that we miss because we're fat.

    Nsv!

    The only stupid question is the one never asked :eek: NSV= Non scale Victory
  11. Before I lost weight I was never cold; I was always warm/hot. No, cold is not the most comfortable situation, but to me, it is a celebration of change! I would rather wear a jacket, sweatshirt or even a coat (hardly EVER wore a coat before!) than almost 50 extra pounds for warmth! Besides, now I can sit in a ball on the sofa, reading or watching tv, with my feet under me and my knees drawn up because my belly is no longer in the way...as much. lol Any other 'weird' NSV's?

    Up and Down Numbers

    First, great work! You've lost more than 50 pounds! Okay, sounds like you've hit that dreded platoue. (gawd, I wish I could spell.) I'm beginning to thing that these are rather on the desirable side, since they give you a chance to get used to your new size. Some speculate that it's the body's way of maintaining it's sanity. I noticed right off you haven't listed any of your NSVs, which in my book, are more important than scale victories, especially given that the scale is a damn lier. Look at how fit you are! WOOT! Have you had a real measurement of your body-fat taken? it could be that you are losing fat and gaining muscle. You didn't publish your weight, but it could be that you have an athletic build and will find that at 180 pounds you have a body-fat of 23%. Woot! In my not so humble opionion, the body-fat percentage is much more important than what the lying lyer of a scale says.

    My first NSV!

    I work for a website. Once a year, we have a party, for the anniversary of the company and invite members from the website. Last night was this year's party. Most of the people, I hadn't seen since last year. I ended up having about 8 people comment on how much weight I'd lost. My coworkers, don't really notice, as they see me everyday - so it felt pretty darn good! It was the first time since the surgery that people who didn't know about it (the surgery), commented on my weightloss. *dancing a happy dance* hehe
  15. the best me

    Psycho eval today!!!

    Heh, I'm still working on that one but it IS getting better! That's a great NSV to look forward to! Give us the scoop on the "psycho" eval.

    Psycho eval today!!!

    I have my psycho eval today. I will let everyone know how it went and what they did since so many people (including myself) are always asking what the do. I'm exited to be one step closer to my band! NSV most looking forward too today - getting out of the shower and being able to wrap a NORMAL size towel around my body without one boob and 1/2 my tummy hanging out!
  17. Hi, I am realively new to this support group and there have been several abreviations used that I'm afraid I don't know their meaning. I'm not as computer savey as a lot of you obviously are. Could someone please tell me what does PB stand for? NSV? Sorry to ask such a dumb question, I have tried to figure them out, but so far I am just drawing blanks. Thanks for any help you can give me.
  18. I went shoppin today and i tried on a pair of pants..TWO sizes smaller then my old size (22 down to an 18) needless to say i bought those pants LOL My BMI had gone down from 44.5 to 41 hard to believe that with a few more pounds gone i wouldn't even qualify for surgery!

    LOL..great NSV.. I loved it when I finally weighed less them y husband, first time in 15 yrs Congrats! keep it up
  20. Ok.. this is funny so be ready to giggle.. Katerzz's NSV of the day: When your nurse whos giving you an unfill tells you its time to retire my pants.

    Ok I am over it now..... plateau

    Brenda, I too have been on a plateau for all summer. 2 entire pounds since June, and now we are looking at September. I got so pissed off I almost quit everything, but came to my senses. My thanks to everyone for their encoragement on that. 7 pounds in 8 weeks is not a plateau, it just bearly is below the 1-2 pounds a week. That is still within the realm of reasonable weight loss. Sure, it isn't the amazing rappid loss many of us got used to, but it is still within the expected rate. I undestand your frustration, espcially when we see how amazing some people are doing. We are so excited for our fast loosers, even when we feel a stab of envy because of our own slow loss. I have stopped tracking my weight. I know it is unreasonable on some level, but I have stopped. I stopped for my sanity. I am now solely focused on my NSVs. It really makes this part of the journey tolerable. Today, I bought a size LARGE skirt. Not a 2X but a large. So, I suppose right now, the fact that I've only lost 2 pounds all summer is irrelevent. What are your NSVs? Are you tracking your inches lost?

    PB - Productive Burp: There are many versions to the PB, but it's basically when slime comes back up often followed by the food you just ate after the food refuses to go down. NSV- Non scale Victory: Something fabulous that happens as a result of weight loss that doesn't have anything to do with numbers, like getting flirted with or picking up something off the floor without falling over.
