How about some NSVs!?!?



Recommended Posts

I went to an amusement park last night and didn't have to suck it in to fit in any rides.

I am constantly freezing cold.... I hated being hot all the time.... and being originally from North Dakota I am in heaven.

Ditto I'm still over heating most of the time but I sure do like the coldness here in Williston during the winter time. I'm finally starting to freeze in the evenings which is a blessing. I've been waiting for years to say hunny turn the furnace up I'm freezing! :)

The walk was great! It was cold in the wind - Colt State Park in Bristol RI is on the Water - but the day was so beautiful, as were the views. And occasionally the walkway dipped below the been and then it was warm.

Then I went shopping. I have a new problem but it's one I don't mind. All the clothes I tried on were too big. Even some of the next size down were too big. I'm getting into mediums!

Then I came home and cut the grass, which I enjoy. All in all, it was a good day. :-)

I'm still preop so this is a NSV. LoL. I've been dieting since mid April and have lost 50 lbs.

My 23 yr old daughter hugged me last night and was so excited that both her arms fit around my waist. LOL. It definitely put a smile on my face to see my baby girl so excited for me. : )

I took my daughter to a football game last week and I fit comfortably in the seat. If anything it was a little roomy. I love to go to sporting events but was always worried about spilling over on who was ever forced to sit next to me.

1. Have been dating a wonderful guy for about a month now. Absolutely insane to me! 2. We went on a roadtrip to Washington DC this past weekend because some of his friends were running the marine corps marathon. I was able to walk around the city without complaint. AND it has reaffirmed that my ultimate goal is to run a marathon. The surgery has not made me happier. My decision that I was worth it has made me happier!

Totally off topic...but I scored a $280 cashmere/ wool sweater for $$50. It's a large, and bulky, so I think I'll be able to wear it for a long time with jeggings...oh yeah, I can wear leggings and skinny jeans without scaring people!

I am almost 8 months out... Started this at 282 lbs. I am currently 165.6 lbs. I went to New York and co and almost peed my pants because I fit into a size 10.... I have never ever been in a size 10 and I couldn't see my but fitting in them but apparently my but is smaller than I think....I still see myself as the fat girl in a size 22 that's uncomfortable in their body all the time... It's def a change to get use to but I love the new me....

      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. 🤞
