So many NSV's this last week. I am at a loss for where to start, so I won't.

I'll go more towards the end. It was a small victory, but one that sorta dawned on me after it'd happened.

Had a perfect week....ending with a long night. Next morning light was harsh and scolding. lol.

I needed coffee. Blessed coffee. I knew just the spot and they had just the right brew. Next, I needed a place to hole up and sip a bit.

An inviting looking nook but the chairs looked liked they'd been made for a little girl's tea set. lol.

No way I'd fit....and no way it'd hold my big arse.

I did........ it did........ and that was some good damn coffee with a nice breeze coming through and the sun on my face. Peaceful times. Serene.

So you all know I've been swimming in the cesspool that is online dating. People don't go on "first dates" anymore, they go on "meet and greets". I feel so old. I get it, though, you're not stuck sitting through a dinner with someone you have nothing in common with.

Last night I had a first meet. We went to the park near my house, and all of the seating areas were full. They converted part of the park to a skateboarding area, so it's a lot busier than it used to be. My date suggested sitting on a grassy hill. My first thought was, am I going to be able to get my happy arse up off the ground afterwards??

I pretty much hopped right up when we were done talking! I was grinning like a mad woman!

So it's a half nsv/ half sv...I'm only 20 lbs from a "normal" weight/bmi...I don't remember the last time I could say that. It's funny because I am really quite pleased with my weight now, my personal goal is just 3 pounds more, and now I am a bit curious...just a nice "dilemma" to have :)

I just realized I'm posting in the wrong forum...I just saw nsvs and got excited lol.

The scales hasn't really moved. But I just tried on a size 10 jeans! I fit!!!! That's always been a goal I wanted to reach. I've never been a size 10 even as a teenager. Always a 12 and up. I asked my mom how they liked and she said, I think they're a little loose! So tried on a misses 11, and it fit too!!! Was a little snug, but not tight!! I can't believe it! Size 8 here I come!!!

LMAO.

I wouldn't have been caught dead wearing shorts for the last several years due to the staining on my lower legs from crappy circulation.

It is the sole reason I've been going to the tanning spot.....just to camouflage the stains with a tan.

Now.....for the first time in many years I am wearing shorts in public.

This pic as taken this past Tuesday morning as I was leaving the tanning spot.

Bad looking varicose veins and scars all over both knees from football field mishaps.....I couldn't care less. Comfort is gong to be had this Spring & Summer. Shorts will be worn.

Getting rid of this weight feels so damn good. There is zero downside to being less fat. So damn grateful. So far yet to go, but truly happy with the decision to have the sleeve surgery.

      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.
