New me forming..YAYYY!

[Dknal2 1,066]

My body is changing . I am currently down total 21.8 pounds from surgery date of dec 5( 44 lbs from pre op weight of 242 lbs). I feel my body changing daily. scale isn't moving as fast as I would like but I am losing inches everywhere. New years I noticed my face looked different , even since surgery it has gotten a little more defined and smaller. I was like yayyyy, NSV. I have another great NSV. I bought an outfit from The Gap n baby I haven't been able to wear anything from there in like 16 years. I bought a large sweatshirt and size 14 pants ( I used to be a death grip 16 ????????) and the 14 had room and were baggy in waist as well as sweatshirt was very roomy... omg that was a victory for me.

Feels amazing, right @@Dknal2? Could you post a before pic, too?

I saw a flash of my clavicles today - I wasn't sure if I even had them!

Forgive my ignorance, but what the neck does NSV stand for?

Yes ma'am I'm going to look for a before right now and NSV stands for non scale victory. Meaning there are other ways to feel victorious in this journey besides what the scale reads.

Hi Gucci... but nothing major for my bday. Hubby wants to go out for dinner and I'm fretting that because I'm still doing very select food choices. My sleeve is picky. So I'm not sure if I wanna go to a restaurant. I may go to the casino, lol and hopefully win some money.

Aww you are making me blush!!!! My son told me today that I look so much younger and that I am beautiful. That was so special to me. He always compliments me even at my heaviest. But he was with me for my surgery and drove 9 hours bk to Alabama from Tx. He is a true blessing. People don't believe me when I tell them I have a son that will be 21 this year, lol.

Beautiful! Congratulations!

I feel thinner every day. Down from a tight 3x to a loose 2x and some well fitting 1x.. I have to remind myself sometimes that I am actually still quite fat!

Fabulous....loving the progress. When the scale fails to move, those NSV always help us maintain that focus!!
