Non Scale Victories



Recommended Posts

3 Future NSV I am hoping for:#1
sitting on a plastic chair and not have it make embarrassing sucky noises, also to have chairs with arms nor bite into my thighs. #2 Relatives letting me sit on their,good furniture instead of getting a sturdy wooden one from. the kitchen or their porch.#3 sitting and swinging on a porch swing. Last time I tried relative kept looking at the pitch ceiling to see if I bent the hooks out or snapped the chain. Many things have a 200 or 250 lb weight limit.
And when I achieve these things I will shout,it from the highest roof, right after I post on Bariatric Pal!🚩😛🚩

The scale is not my friend today (2 lbs, overnight, wtf??)

But I feel fantastic, and am loving how I look (in clothes, naked is a whole nother story!)

it is amazing the amount of Water we can store in our bodies. never use day to weight use at least weekly averages to even out the up and down of the water.

at 8 lbs per gallon water can really move the scale on a day to day basis.

Thanks, I know I've been on plan and not done anything different, it's just my body messing with me. Doesn't make it less frustrating though :angry:

@Orchids&Dragons At the rate my boobs are shrinking, I'll soon be a pear!

@AshAsh1 Thanks! But it's all a mess when it's not being held in by jeans!

This may sound dumb, but simply not having to hide in loose, black clothes. I actually feel comfortable wearing colors again!

You look fantastic! My boobs have shrank so much too. My daughter saw me changing and said “ummm, mom, I don’t want to be mean, but, ummm, are your boobs smaller?”

My sister, who's kinda a b*tch, says last time she saw me "OMG, you HAVE lost your boobs!" :angry:

Yet one more of those advantages that men have - as they lose fat, their "parts" appear larger, as women lose fat their boobs and booty shrivel!

I'm 46lbs down and the nicest surprise I've had so far was when I got into the car and my usually-wobbly-jelly-belly didn't touch the steering wheel! :):):D

I’m in Eastern Europe at the moment and eating while a little challenging I’m happily finding food I can eat. I hate the look on wait staff’s faces when I only eat some but I’m doing what I need to.

My other NSV is I voluntarily put myself on the 5th floor as opposed to 2nd in a place with no elevators. I’m not dead yet but oh man am I feeling it by floor 5. I can’t image doing that 60 lbs ago...

My husband, who is a totally awesome guy says my boobs look great and still are still big in proportion to me. He’s a liar and I love him. After nursing 2 kids for a year plus each and now losing almost 70 lbs, I have a pair of 38 longs.

      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.
