Moquarius 3 Posted October 2, 2010 I have been banded a little over 2 months and have lost 22 pounds to date. Although I am thrilled at the number, I have been discouraged at the fact that the scale has only moved 3-4 pounds in the past 4 weeks. I stumbled upon a picture at my friends babyshower, which was taken 2 weeks before my surgery and HOLY COW, I have my first NSV!!!:smile2:[/img] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nomorejellybelly 77 Posted October 2, 2010 Good Job. I feel silly asking, but what does NSV mean? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nomorejellybelly 77 Posted October 3, 2010 Thanks, gwenny. I guess then, I can say that I have had a couple NSV's by fitting into some clothes I hadn't worn in awhile. :smile2: Lemon it means non scale victory, things you notice about yourself during weight loss Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spoiltmom 44 Posted October 3, 2010 IMO I think taking pictures every 2 weeks is really important! It's great to compare them all and see the differences. You look awesome!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tsaleen 1 Posted October 3, 2010 I lost 12 pounds the first week after surgery, my husband keeps telling me how much weight I lost. I feel like 12 pounds isn't much but it really is! You look great girl! Keep it up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
