3 NSVs in a 24 hour period

[nursepez 152]

I'm 8 weeks post-op tomorrow. I've lost 50 pounds from my highest weight last November (right after Thanksgving!). And in the last 24 hours I've had 3 NSVs.

1. I have an important job interview tomorrow so went looking for a new outfit. I was able to purchase off the rack in the regular ladies department...not plus sizes. That was huge...haven't done that in years.

2. I'm wearing a belt that didn't fit around my waist in January...and I'm already adjusting it to the 4th hole. So even though I can't always see a difference in my appearance...it's happening!

3. And my last NSV...I'm getting my neck back!!! You ladies know what I mean. I put on a necklace today that I have avoided wearing because it just felt too tight. Today it is laying perfectly around my much slender neck and falls to the perfect position on my chest.

Loving life after my sleeve. Just wanted to share.

Congrats. I look forward to these changes myself. I'm 9 days post op 15lbs down and I see bodily changes already.

Nice NSVs! I went shopping today at lunch time and I found that I was able to fit into some size medium tops. It was a little snug (but passable). So I bought 2 medium tops so that they will fit me for a much longer period. I can't afford to keep buying clothes right now. I am going to have to find a thrift shop store near me. I know where donation centers are at, but not stores...lol

NICE!!! I love each of your NSV's and you give me hope that I, too, can have your success! Way to go for doing so well

Congrats on your NSVs! I need to keep off the scales and focus on the NSVs. When the scale jumps up and down or doesn't move, it can be rather depressing. I'll have to think about NSVs more.
