The most AMAZING NSV!!!



Recommended Posts

I am going to be apart of a WLS fashion show this coming thursday and of course I have nothing to wear, so my friends at the gym offered to let me borrow a dress from them.

The first dress- black cocktail size 14- fit like a glove. This material was not stretchy either.

The second dress- is a black and white dress (not as formal)- size 8 (made from stretchy material) it fit like a glove too!!!!!!!OMG!!!!!!!!!!

I am not a size 8 by any stretch, but the fact that it fit stretchy or not was an amazing feeling. Now I don't know which dress to choose.

I know this is a silly question but I am new to all of this...

What does "NSV" stand for?

Non scale Victory. These is a thread in Q&A which gives meaning for most acrnyms on here.

Thanks for all your kind remarks. It really helps encourage me to continue full force with the healthy eating and exercise.

I think I probably will go with the 8 (just b/c its an 8 and b/c it is more appropriate for the event). My WLS program is having its 5th year anniversary and to Celebrate, the patients are putting on a fashion show for the doctors and prospective patients. We are a small program in East TN and everyone is having great success. The show is this coming Thursday and I will be sure to take photos and post them. I am so excited and I haven't been excited about things like this in forever. Thanks again and stay tuned for photos late this week.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
