Non Scale Victories



Recommended Posts

I can fit into my husband's shirts and blazers. Anytime I choose to wear them at work I end up looking like a gender bent 11th Doctor.

Bow ties are cool!!!

I just had a size 10 dress zip up on me. Still a little snug and will need some shape wear for the belly but holy hell it zipped. It’s for a wedding in January. The second look my Mr gave me was hysterical when I asked him if it looked okay to be his arm candy.

All needed because the scale I swear is stuck at 200.8-201.8... still

GROUP PHOTOS! In large group photos it's like a freaking "where's Waldo" scenario now because I no longer look for the larger mass. I blend in! I know this is a silly thing to get excited over, but before I could spot myself immediately because I typically stood out. Now it takes me a little longer to find myself in a sea of average sized people and I am totally cool with that.

In smaller group photos I am pretty excited about not taking up a majority of the photo so joy all around! :D

Thanks! The best part is I was always his arm candy even over 300 lbs. I’m incredibly fortunate on how awesome and supportive he is regardless of my body size. He’s also a big guy and on his own journey.

I lost the last 5 or so pounds from my face all at once, and my cheekbones have gone nuts. They haven't been this prominent since my late teens. Not only is it incredibly obvious to other people, but I keep freaking myself out when I absently touch my own face because the contours are so different. Even when I'm sleeping, the way my face presses against the pillow - totally different pressure points than I've had in the last decade.




All of the fat underneath my cheekbones vanished, I now have a notable angle/shadow there, and my dimples have abruptly become really obvious.




It's super weird.


Nope weird I can feel my bones too ...all of them 😩

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
