Bestest Nsv Ever!!!!



Recommended Posts

Is bestest a word? Oh well.

Lately, I haven't been losing a lot of weight, but my body is changing so dramatically. I tried on and fit into a size 16 pair of jeans...down from a 28...a tight 28... Unbelievable.

But I experienced my favorite NSV to date today. I was at a local preschool to sign up my daughter for next September, and I saw my sister's friend. We've known each other for over 4 years and see each other at least 6 times a year. Well, I saw her driving away and I waved to her and she waved back, but had that look of "who the hell was that" on her face. She had no idea who I was. It's funny because I saw her two weeks ago at my niece's school play and she looked through me that night as well..but I just chalked it up to looking for a seat and dealing with her son... But today, there was no reason to not know me.

I am a very recognizable person because I am 6ft tall. I used to say I was recognizable because I was 6ft tall and fat....but not any more...

BESTEST NSV EVER!!!

An NSV is a non scale victory...something that has happened as a result of weight loss, but has nothing to do with scale numbers...

When I didn't know what it meant, I guessed that it meant New Skinny Victory...and to be honest, I still say that in my head when I see/type it!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
