I have a NSV!



Recommended Posts

My NSV that I wanted to share was that I can wear 3 inch heels again with no problem!!!!!! :clap2: I went to DSW and bought me 2 new pair and I am loving it! I have a friend of mine who is so excited that I am buying shoes like this because she is one of those girls that are addicted to shoes and most of hers are 4 inch heels!!! :confused: Oh I am so not there yet and not sure if I would wear them that high but she is a pro in them from wearing them for years! She works in real estate and walks in subdivisions with them on! OMG! She has awesome calves and that is what I am striving to get back...those sexy, muscular calves that make even me go WOW! about myself. :)

One thing I forgot to mention about getting back into 3 inch heels...dancing is so much more fun! Yes...by the end of the night I want to soak my feeties but it so worth the pain!! :confused:

Cool! I haven't worn heels in YEARS!!!! I was only able to wear Birks for years due to wide swollen feet. I have graduated to tennies & other flat shoes since my surgery. I was thinking the other night about trying some pumps for Easter. You go girl!!!! I'm impressed!!

I have to second this NSV!! I just recently actually got into a pair of pantyhose, put on a dress and 3 inch heels. I felt SOOOOO hot. I used to dress like that all the time!! I LOVED that I was actually able to wear the heels all day. My new man was VERY happy to see me that day!!

Good NSV! Thank you for reminding me to acknowledge such things!!!

Awesome NSV, for a wedding I was going to I found these 4 1/2 inch stiletto heels made by Carlos Santana's new line of shoes which I ab fab love. Well I was fine walking around the house, but got out the door and almost died going down the stairs so I had to switch to 3 inchers. I have those 4 1/2 inchers waiting until I get small enough not to want to cut off my feet after 30 minutes. 209 pounds on the toes is not easy. I can't wait!! that is so awesome. I think it's a short girl thing loving heels. I am 5'4'' also and love my heels. For now the 4 1/2 inch stilletos will stay in the bedroom only!!

Jessie - birks for me, too - I live in them! Socks and birkenstock sandals in the winter - quite a fashion statement!

Kathy - Great NSV! I can't wear heels for more than a couple of hours - and at that they're really LOW heels! I'll look forward to that one! With weight, my feet have gotten SOOOOO wide! I hope with weight loss that they aren't spread out so much. When I try to wear normal shoes it looks like Miss Piggy or ugly step sister feet!

Grats on your NSV, Kathy! I have been fat all my life and have bad ankles so I've never been able to wear heels. I'm kind of jealous! hehe

birks for me, too - I live in them! Socks and birkenstock sandals in the winter - quite a fashion statement! quote]

Me too! I wonder if I'll ever be able to let them go. I've been wearing them for 16 years or more (and only on my second pair!). They may not be a fashion statement, but they sure are comfy. Hm.. I wonder if we can poke holes in the straps like the guys are doing with their belts? hehe

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
