NSV Thread for the May Bandsters!



Recommended Posts

I am totally off all three of my diabetes medication. That is 6 pills less I have to take. I am also off my high blood pressure medication. I have a bad liver so it really helps to be off as many medications as I can. :wink2: Besides losing weight, my biggest goal as been to get off the medications.

I also was able to go out and buy some new clothes. Everything was so baggy.

4_17_211.gif Patti...What a wonderful NSV. Off some of your meds.

I have had another NSV.. I cried and still am tearing up some...some of you will understand this one others who haven't been as big might not.....but I was trying on old clothes this morning and a lot of the older ones fits me again...great, but a little while ago I decided to use the tape messure on my hips...It actually touched! No more guessing how many inches in between the ends. Is it 5" or 6". I didn't do my messurements when I had the surgery because of how much I had to guess. This is very emotional for me. Even though I see the scale moving and clothes fitting it just wasn't regeristering 100%. Now it is. I can look at pics and actually notice a difference! 36_1_75.gifThis is so awesome to me..

Sorry so long and rambling!

Well I havent gotten as lucky as all of your with the NSV's. The only things I notice is I'm losing everywhere but my midsection and IT SUCKS!!! Bra cups are lose on me I went from a DD to a D size now..it snug around my body but the boobies are shrinking and starting to sag:thumbdown:. My pants are lose on the legs,but when I get to my stomach it's still snug :grouphug: so I havent bought any smaller clothes yet.

congrats to all on their NSV's and their weight loss.

blessed be

K, I am gonna turn up the heat for a sec....:thumbup:

My newest NSV: Last night during the middle of sex w/ DH, he picked me up to switch positions.

Just in case you missed that-HE PICKED ME UP!

Of couse it freaked me out and I screamed put me down because I still suffer from fat girl syndrom. I am trying to let go of my issues but I still see myself as that chick who still carries the 102 lbs I have lost so far.

I am working to get over it and, *ahem*, maybe a few more lbs and I will request to be picked up :thumbup:

I have the same trouble...my stomach is the LAST to lose!! I have started doing targeted stomach exercises like crunches, reverse curls, etc... You can do them right in your home!! I haven't seen any drastic results yet, but I know that it can't hurt!!!

Good luck!!

      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.
