A1ikou 0 Posted July 6, 2006 I finally have some NSV's I thought I'd share with you guys:- 1. After a year I can finally wear my wedding and engagement rings again. My fingers swelled up last summer and so I took them off. I thought all would be well again after the summer, but it wasn't just swelling...it was fat and I couldn't get them on again! Now they twist around and it's just nice to see them there again. 2. I actually stood to do my laundry today. I have a top loader washing machine and when I want to put clothes on the airer I always had to sit down because my back ached so much. Twice today I did laundry and only when I finished the second lot did I realise there wasn't a chair in sight. 3. My sugar levels are in normal levels for the whole day. For someone who couldn't get her levels down no matter what she did this thing in itself is worth having the band for. 4. I threw away the extension belt hubby bought me for the car when I realised I could open the glove compartment without undoing my belt. 5. There is no-more belt to fasten on my tie-belt pants and they are still loose. 6. I can leave food on my plate without obsessing about it for hours later. Things are changing regularly now and I am really beginning to feel good about myself and about what I am doing to help myself and that hasn't happened for the longest time. There are some things I'm looking forward to, like actually needing clothes in a smaller size because even with elastication they are falling off but I now believe it can happen and that too is a definite victory. :biggrin1: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
