A girlfriend that I hadn't seen in a few weeks (and doesn't know about my band) said "You look tiny!" Tiny - that's one I haven't heard in years. I still have a long way to go, but it felt really good!

It is all these seemingly little things that make it worth it. My biggest cheerleaders have been my students. Some know about surgery, but most just know I have lost weight.

My boyfriend has been great too. We are long distance right now, so when we get together he really sees it.

I was at the movies with my 2 friends a few weeks ago and as we are all "big" I usually feel squished. I was in the middle and felt very comfortable and my thighs did not spill into the others' chairs. Yeah!!!

I hope this isn't too TMI, but sexy times are better without all of the extra padding blocking important kinds of stimulation, if you get my drift.

I was laying down and yelled at my husband to run over because i thought i had a tumor in my abdomen................I grabbed his hand and put it on the hard spot of my abdomen........he laughed and said "those are your ribs"! HAHAHA!!

The other nsv is:

When I went home for thanksgiving, I raided my sister's closer and took everything she doesn't use. I grabbed a size 16 jacket and thought well someday. I put it on this morning and don't look like a total sausage! It doesn't quite button all the way, but hey definately an improvement compared to those size 28 shorts i had to wear this past summer!!!

One of my coworkers told me to go buy new scrubs - the ones I have been wearing are just hanging on me. Went and bought some yesterday - before lapband I was wearing 2xl's in tops & bottoms - now I'm Large on top and Medium on bottom

My wife bought our grandson some new clothes and got 3 Ts. The next day I bought new pants because mine were really loose. She asked me what size I bought and I told her 36 Ts... 36 Tight...but I'm in 'em!

Yay I love these, especially because the scale hasn't been moving much.

• First like some of you have mentioned sex is soooo much better, not only because I've lost some weight but also because I feel more confident in myself...that's the biggest NSV I think. Confidence is something I haven't had in a VERY long time.
• I took a spin class and kicked its ass! I rocked at it, I know I would've never been able to do it before.
• My clothes fit differently now, my tops are baggy and my jeans just slide off....no need to unbutton anything.
• I am starting to wear cute workout clothes, LOL I guess that's the confidence thing again, but no more big long shirts.
• my mom put her arm around me and said "what the hell is that?" I touched where she had her hand and it was my port. OMG you can feel my port by just pressing down a bit, before you had to DIG for it.
• I'm wearing heels again, no hooker 6 inchers yet but I'm wearing 2-3 inches at work ALL DAY
• Boots that I bought a couple of years ago "in hopes to one day wear" fit up my calves...a little tight but they fit!!!

i've been walking with shorts stints of jogging in between. i had worked up to jogging an entire mile without stopping. yesterday, i jogged three miles total for the first time since surgery and only ended up walking one mile...that's huge for me!

I saw this really pretty dress & decided to order it for motivation,I ordered a size misses 12 therefore I wouldn't have a chance of getting in it,well I tried it just for the heck of it I can get it on but I look like a sausage which is great 4 months ago I looked like a sauage in a 18w.
