NSV lately?



Recommended Posts

Being able to swap clothes, shows and boots with my friends and taking their hand-me-downs so I don't have to buy clothes until I recover from PS ;)

Hands down THE BEST NSV is while hugging me, my son says :awe mom, I can put my arms all the way around you!"

I love all the NSV's!

I just got a new phone so I have been going through my old photos on FB. I have been telling my family that when I look in the mirror I still see a fat person. Lately looking in the mirror I am seeing someone else, not a fat person, more like a stranger. Well back to the photos, the fat person in them is definitely not who I am.

I saw my cousin on Christmas eve, and she said "you are going to blow away you are getting so thin!". I know I'm not, but she really meant it.

Also, at work we have a managers meeting every Monday. There are a couple of other women there, and I'm the smallest! Not that either of them are huge, but I'm smaller. I don't think less of them, but I marvel that for the first time in my adult life, I"M NOT THE BIGGEST GIRL IN THE ROOM!

Oh, one other thing. Everytime I use my Amex at costco, they do a double take when the look at the picture, since it was taken 2 years ago :)

These are fun to read from vets! Like M2G said, the further out you are the fewer the NSV's become. I do have a couple that happened recently though...I had to order a size smaller in my spanx! Also, I now have area in between my legs where my thighs don't touch! (only while I am wearing said Spanx, but hey I'll take it!)

I've had 2 skirts in my closet for YEARS that I haven't been able to zip up. Well, wore one of them to work today! And the best part? There was about an inch gap in the waist! The hips were snug (damn "womanly figure" haha) but still, I'll take it!

Since having my TT in September....I tuck in everything. I'm even tucking in my tshirt into my running shorts. My wife can't stand it. I told her I'm making up for lost time....all those years where nothing could be tucked in.

Hee hee! Well, it might become a little "nerdy" with the shorts! ;)

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
