Here is my latest and probably one of the greatest NSVs. Today my new -60lb "shape" was called sexy! SEXY! OMG! I dont think I have ever been called sexy. SEXY my shape is sexy! Holy Moly!

It may take my ego some time to recover from this.:tea:

B-Rog,

That is awesome! That is so not TMI, it is something to look forward too. Now you arent going in blind sided and cutting yourself. Love it.

I work for a fairly large company that has several different locations. Although I am a member of our management team I primarily work out of another office so I rarely go to our main office, unless it's required. Any way, we had a management team meeting one day and my old supervisor was there and she walked right past me without even saying hi (so not like her). A few seconds later she came back to apologize that she hadn't even recognized me. That felt good. I guess that's what 75 lbs will do for you.

I haven't been banded yet, but I love reading other ppl's NSV's! It's inspiring and makes me want to do this even more than I do already. I know this is the right step and I'm making probably the best decision in my life by taking this journey to band land. I only hope my insurance/company can see the light and grant me this huge tool to a long life of happiness and healthiness.

What i'm looking forward too, is being able to shop with my friends in the regular junior sizes at the mall and not having to go to "women's world" looking for clothes.

I'm also looking forward to being able to cross my legs, not feeling squished at the baseball game or at the movie theater. Of course the double takes from guys won't hurt.

My biggest NSV is probably being able to go to my 10 yr reunion in two yrs and ppl not believing it's me and only knowing it's me b/c of my "unique" voice.

I'm looking forward to the exact same things... getting banded next month.

First non-scale victory ever! Two people told me today that they could tell I have lost weight.

Its been more than a month since the last post on here. I know you lot have had some NSV's:sneaky:. Dont hide them.

My newest one is that even though Im a ways away from goal I can see that Im going to have a space between my thighs. It looks like its gonna be there before I get under 200lbs. I almost have it now and Im still pretty heavy. My legs look really long! Im 6"1' so they are long, but I never thought they looked long. I guess thats something else the fat was hiding. I really love my body's new shape.

I have not had a Dr. Pepper in 3 months to the day! I used to drink anywhere from 4 to 10 a Day!! I don't think my hair has ever been so shiny and my face has never been clearer. Also, I am finding that I sweat alot less now, which is always a good thing.

I'm reading through these and just grinning like a dork :smile2: Great inspiration, and grats to all!

I havent been banded yet but i have a few in mind, 2 are NSV and the last is an SV.

1- To be able to go back to normal stores, as opposed to big and tall stores. And during my bi-annual shopping for clothes not having to move up another pant size every year.

2- I like to keep my "boys" trimmed, very difficult and dangerous when you can barley see them. I cant wait to see those motherfuckers again!!!

3- Be eligible for surgery to remove a Pylonidal Cyst (sp). The surgeon that healed the cyst said they wouldnt do surgery at my current weight, too risky and healing would be a major problems. If i lose 100lb i can get the surgery and rid myself of that god awful thing.

Congrats on your great success

So right before surgery I went into Lane Bryant and bought a few items that were on sale and were dirt cheap. I bought some 18/20, 22/24 shirts- at that time I was a 26/28. I also found nice work pants for cheap so I bought 2 size 22, and one size 20. Two days ago I put on my normal pants and was disgusted by how baggy and saggy they looked. I have been hesitating to try my smaller size but finally decided that it was worth a shot. I grabbed a pair and they fit! Slightly tight in the booty, but not enough to not wear them. I also was super thrilled when I put on my 18/20 shirt and it looked good! I was so excited I called my mom and best friend at 7:30 in the morning to tell them that I had new pants on. But this is not even the best part! I washed them along with a few other things the next day and while folding I discovered..ready-here comes the BEST part!!!...I had acidentally put on my size 20, not the 22 like I thought! YAY, ME! I have gone down 3 pants sizes!!!

I bought a shirt from Arden B!!!!! They only carry Small, Medium and Large! Granted...the shirt was a Large, but still, I would never even have gone into that store before I had lapband!! :thumbup:
