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.

      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.
