NSV shout outs

[higher 966]

I've been working on a field project all week alongside a local facility. My coworker joked that we admired the facility workers t shirts (we didn't, but they took us seriously) and their CEO stopped me before I left to gift me with some. He handed them to me and said "sorry, those are the smallest sizes we have."

7 weeks out...my current favourites...

Fastening up my DMs properly

My partner coming home from 4 weeks away and going in at usual width for a bosie...only to have to totally adjust where his arms were.

Buying and using a hula hoop

Seeing a gorgeous winter coat, thinking 'no way' and it fitting like a dream

Running to do something urgent

Starting belly dancing classes

Losing the weight of my 4 year old

Getting off a train and my other half not recognise me as my figure profile has changed so much

The delight on my 12 year olds face when I suggested we went a long walk together (she is one of 5, so 1:1 time is prized) and we ended up going 11 miles, I couldn't have managed 1 before.

Now just 2lbs off the lightest I have been as an adult!!!

In just 7 weeks!! That is absolutely amazing.

WOW Norma - that is a GREAT visual -- I know how heavy those containers of litter are - never made the "connection" -- it's amazing ... and

Congrats on your new babies - you'll have to bring pics at the next Vegas Group luncheon.

Going to try and get the pics posted this weekend!

Are you in vegas Malaika?

Officially in size 14!

On my recent plane trip had about 5 extra inches on the seatbelt!

Today at annual gyno appointment:

Physician Assistant: any medical updates or recent surgery?

me: yes I had the sleeve in July

PA: pause. What's that?

Me: weight loss surgery

PA: oh, how is that going for you?

Me: great, down about 60 pounds since July

PA: omg, when you said you had WLS I was wondering why the heck you would do that ...you don't need it but that's amazing

That felt awesome! To have someone I never met not realize I could have even needed it was a great feeling.

I haven't posted in a while but thought I'd share this one with you. To set the scene I am most certainly not a runner - but last weekend I did a 5k with my sister, she decided it would be something fun to do together ???? Anyhow I will never be the quickest and I probably should have trained for it but I still finished it ????

Those are great NSVs!!

[The New Kel 1,312]

Well, when viewing my side profile my tummy is finally smaller than my chest. That is a big NSV for me since my boobs have lost 2 full cup sizes.

My husband cuddles me in these cold nights and can wrap his arms actually all around me. Feels great!!

Yay, My NSV's - one month surgeryversary

1. My plantar fasciitis (heels pain) is gone, so instead of bulky orthopaedics boots I bought pretty sandals (it is summer in Australia)

2. My week ago bought top is loose and I need a new one

3. I've been in a shop for NORMAL-NOT-FAT-PEOPLE and things fit! (the best thing ever)

I received a gift card to Old Navy for Christmas and purchased a new pair of jeans in a size 6, and a sweater in a small! Those are sizes that I have never seen in my closet in my life! Not even in my teen years.

I was looking for a down vest in a store last night and the clerk came over to help and asked me if I knew I was in the plus section!

I realized this morning that none of my belts fit me anymore. They're all too big! I use to struggle getting into the very last notch, and now the same belts can't keep my pants up. Amazing feeling.

[Sullie06 1,013]

I needed new pants for work. I was a size 22 starting this journey, I'm now in a comfortable 16.

This may seem a little odd, but I am so excited that I now have room for 2 dogs and me in my craft room chair. They like to sit on my lap and now I can get them both up here at the same time.
