marywithoutsound 148 Posted October 14, 2013 My BMI is now under 40! I know it's still way too high but I feel like that is a sort of milestone and I know it's never going to begin in a 4 again! That made me happy today Great thread by the way 5 sophiepants, McButterpants, meamo and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

McButterpants 2,846 Posted October 14, 2013 Pre-opper here...What made me happy today? I went to my primary care doctor to discuss my decision for VSG. I was worried and fretted going in to tell her and ask her to have labs ordered. I just wasn't sure what her reaction was going to be. She had the biggest smile on her face and said, "I am so happy you're doing this. You have worked so hard and haven't gotten anywhere. I think this is the right decision and I think you'll be really successful." It's nice to know you've added someone to your corner. 5 gamergirl, BlessedBeyondMeasure2012, 2ndchanceadict and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mrs.RRn 2,111 Posted October 14, 2013 Great NSV! Congrats! What made me happy today??? Well, my A/C was broken (not happy), but I didn't sweat at all (happy!). Before I would've been found fanning myself in a puddle of sweat shoveling ice cream into my mouth. 4 Lorie269, gamergirl, BlessedBeyondMeasure2012 and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Miss Mac 6,262 Posted October 14, 2013 What made me happy today was that I went in for a nutrition appointment and came out with a tentative date for my surgery....December 18. So, there is light at the end of my tunnel. One endoscopy, two appts., two weeks of liver shrink and ta da...losers bench. I am so excited. I never thought about the towel thing. I have those big giant bath sheets, too, because regular towels don't get the job done. I will be looking for that as a NSV! 4 McButterpants, gamergirl, Indigo1991 and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ASKSARAH - Sleeve 256 Posted October 14, 2013 That was a big NSV for me too. I went on Vacation in August 5 months after my surgery and I went to a hotel and used a towel and it wrapped around me like a normal person. And I got calf high boots with no need to worry about getting extra wide calf and in fact they are too loose on top. Super happy for you I know how it feels to have things like this be big events for you! 2 2ndchanceadict and McButterpants reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
