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....

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
