My first NSV's!!!



Recommended Posts

1.) Today my niece said "Aunt Kim, you look soo skinny today!"

2.) In church I looked down and realized, I can see my feet without bending over!!!!!!!!!! (First time ever!)

3.) After church we took my 5 nieces and nephews to the circus, and the whole way there I was nervous because the upper bowl at our arena is always smaller seats than the lower bowl. The seats in the upper bowl and slightly too small for my large bottom. We got there, went to our seats, sat down................... AND THE SEAT WAS BIGGER THAN MY BUTT! I had at least an inch on both sides of my hips when I sat down!!!

The third NSV is a very important one to me because I love going to events at the arena, but only if I can afford the expensive seats on the lower level. Now I can go to any event ANYTIME I WANT TO!!!!!

YAY!!!!

Congrats!!! Great Job! I think I had my first NSV today.

I'm only a week out and my hubby and I took a long walk today and it felt great! I easily walked much farther than I could prior to surgery. I plan to do a 5k with my hubby this Spring :rolleyes:

Mina,

It's so funny that you mention that because we went shopping this weekend for my hubby a new pair of shoes and I told him, I can't wait until I can buy a pair of calf boots :) It will take a while because I have small feet and the smaller the size of your foot, the smaller the calf part is too, but I know I will get there!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
