Ok I had surgery 4/23 and have lost 40 pounds and it's just now sinking in that I am getting closer to onederland.. But the best thing ever was before surgery I couldn't even reach my feet to tie my shoes and last night I watched tv for hours sitting indian style with my legs folded and comfortable!

Plus I tied my shoes this morning haha

Brandy - that is awesome! I don't ever think of my legs shrinking. I'm concentrating on my middle (I guess it bothered/bothers me the most). I was the same way - lol

I couldn't tie my shoes, bend over to pickup anything. Can you cross your legs yet? Oh that's a biggie!

Yes I CAN! I just tried haha.. Thanks for the idea!

I started at 267 and this morning hit 227!

I am a shorty though so my weight is like compact haha I am 5' 2"

Now I gotta think of new things to try to see if I can do them.

Ooh, here's another one. I realised this past weekend I could sit with my legs toward my chest and rest my arms on top of my knees. I was at the beach and did it...the stomach didn't block me! I was so giddie! I love NSV's!!! Keep posting! :-) You don't realise the simple things that we miss because we're fat.

I don't want to sound stupid, but what does NSV stand for?

The only stupid question is the one never asked :eek:

NSV= Non scale Victory

Congratulations on your NSV!!! Those are great ones. The one I love the very most I think is going into a restaurant and being able to sit at a booth. With room to spare. I can still remember the day that happened. I cried.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
