NSV Moment..

Yesterday I went for a 1 mile walk. Then a few hours later I took my 2 year old niece for about a 1/4 mile walk around our subdivision to look at lights. She was waving and blowing kisses to all the blow up characters. When I got home I cried. 3 months ago I never would have entertained doing something like this because I would have been so tired and wouldn't have had the energy. Last night have me more motivation to keep pushing forward because that simple walk told me if I don't succeed I am going to be missing out on a lot of awsome things. We have a littlw ice cream parlor that is only open during summer and I need to get ready to take my baby girl for walks ao she can get her ice cream cones this summer

When I got home I cried.

This NSV goes deeper than you realize just yet. The fact that you so fully appreciated it, all the way to an emotional response, is golden. You'll have many more.

Good for you. These NSV continue to make me emotional too. My favorite one has been when the hubby puts his arms completely around me. Who knew a hug was so GREAT!!!

That is awesome! These are the real reasons we need to lose the weight. Numbers on a scale are so meaningless compared to moments like that.

Last week after WLS, my nurse was walking with me and asked "what was it that made me decide to have the surgery." I told her that "I want to be there for my future grandchildren" ????

The hugs are awsome! It just hit me harder than expected when I realized I was walking with her and bending over to help her pick up the leaves. Its those little things I didn't realize I missed. So today I increased my walk and just dod 1.5 miles. Granted it took me 37 minutes but I did it!
