Non Scale Victories?



Recommended Posts

Hello Bandster Bunnies!!!

My roommate just got banded and she and I constantly talk about Non scale Victories (NSV), and I thought I'd start a thread for us to share what we're looking forward to beyond seeing the numbers drop on the scale.< /p>

I have a bunch, but the ones that pop into my mind most often are:

*Buying jeans that don't have stretch in them

*Not having to pull my pants UP and pull my shirt DOWN when I stand up

*Fitting nice and easy into airplane chairs, Starbucks chairs, bistro chairs, etc.

*Playing sports again

*Going swimming and enjoying it

*NOT shopping at Lane Bryant anymore

And just now I came face to face with one...

**Actually weighing what I state on my driver's license!!!!

I bumped it up to 200 a while ago, and to even be down to 200 will be a HUGE milestone. WOOHOO, I can't wait!

:thumbup:

What are some NSVs you all are looking forward to?

I am not part of the April group, but my biggest NSV was at the gym not long ago.

A guy came up to me and asked me how I got my legs so toned. I was so shocked. I just pointed to the machines that I use all the time. They have really helped my thighs

which are not flabby at all. I wish I could say the same thing about my arms.

- Wearing high heels and not having balance issues.

- Wearing nice underwear and not having to wear bra-extenders!

- Running and enjoying it.

- Wearing a swim suit!

- Not sweating as much!

- Wearing a singlet in public although I am not sure I will ever be able to do this without feeling naked.

      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.
