yecats 109 Posted March 13, 2012 I was sleeved on Feb 4th , 2012. I decided to take my measurements on Feb 12th, when I got home and was feeling better. Well I took them yesterday, Mar 12, one month later and although I did not lose as much weight as I thought I would considering my pre op diet lose, I was amazed by the inches I lost. I lost a total of 14 inches this month. 5 inches in my waist alone. Some of you had impressed on me the inportance of NSV's ,now I totally understand why!!!! I feel great!!!!! 4 Doreykn, Julie76, jthurman and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yecats 109 Posted March 13, 2012 I am so glad that I did because it is so easy to be discouraged when you are not losing. Once a month same time oof month. I took pics also but are not ready to share those yet. 1 Dooter reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

former_vbg 198 Posted March 18, 2012 NSV means non-scale victories. It's important to Celebrate things even when the scale doesn't move, whether its drops in inches, moving down pant sizes, having to move the car seat up closer to the steering wheel, etc. There are several places to get tickers, but most seem to use www.tickerfactory.com. Just go to their website and follow their instructions. Welcome!!

VSGaddictEPT 2 Posted March 18, 2012 Thank u for the info--I hope to b posting NSV's soon!!! I'm down 73 total (40 before) 33 after but still haven't gone down a size--I thought I would have-plus I don't want to buy any new clothes till I'm sure I'm down a size...so I won't b discouraged if the smaller size don't fit. Thanks again for the info Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
