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.

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
