My first NSV! Share yours as they happen!



Recommended Posts

It wasn't my first NSV, but I must share!

The other night hubby and I were intimate and when he had his arms around me, I could feel that his hand could reach further around me than he had previously been able to. It made me feel so good. I told him about it the next day, but he didn't seem to understand why what seemed like such a small thing meant so much to me.

I found myself sprinting down the stairs the other morning. I used to grip the railing as I would slowly go down the steps in the morning, each of my joints creaking and aching. I laughed when I realised what I had just done. What a wonderful feeling!

I knew that I have been getting smaller even though my scale has not been moving much.

So this weekend I was looking for something nice to wear since I have a wedding to go to in a few weeks.

Go and grab a pair of dress pants (size 22) put them on and they fell right off.

It was great. Typically I wear pants that have an elestic waist since I hate buying new clothes and they sort of shrink with you. Well went to the store and grabed some 20's yeah no they didn't fit either. Oh yeah I was able to get into a size 16. Yippi

I even bought a pair of jeans. lol

and I am down 35 pounds since being banded March 13, 2008

My shoes won't stay on my feet... They are slides and that is what they do . Slide right off. These are shoes that when my feet swelled they hurt. Now I can hardly keep them on... :tt2:

Yay, Harleygirl!

I too am wearing a size I hadn't seen in forever! It's so exciting, i love it when hubby asks, "Are those new?" (speaking of new jeans or other clothing) and i can honestly say, "nah, it's old, i just can get back into them!

Today, when I got out of the shower, the bath towel fit all the way around me. I don't mean, just the top part that I tuck under my arms, I mean the whole towel. Yipeeee! Did I mention that it was a normal sized bath towel and not a BEACH towel!!:D

I work at a dentist office and its been 6-7 months since i've seen a lot of my regular patients and they are all flipping OUT!!!!

I started making a list of all the funny things they say to me...

Theres the standard

"Where did you go!"

and a couple of

"Do you have to run around the shower now just to get wet?"

and a very unique

"Keep losing and your honey will have to shake the sheets to find you"

so far my favorite is

"Don't fall through your pants leg and hang your self!"

oh yea...I guess you can tell we live in the south!!!

I just blush and say thanks for noticeing....:biggrin:

      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.
