AWESOME!!!
(had to laugh about the soup... so sorry for him.... but that is CLASSIC!)

I guess this is an NSV - I have to go to a wedding this weekend, so last week I went dress shopping. In the past, this would have been anxiety and tear inducing. I dreaded trying to find something nice that would look halfway decent. I went to Nordstrom Rack, and I actually found 3 clearance dresses, they all fit, they all looked really good, and since I couldn't make up my mind I bought all 3 :-) I will just have to find places to wear them! So nice to actually have choices now, and so nice that shopping doesn't send me spiraling into depression any more!
Oh yeah that is an NSV for sure!! Congrats!!0 -

Awesome!!
I think that being able to shop at Nordstrom Rack is its own NSV, IMHO! All their cute stuff seems smaller in size than if you go to comparable stores like TJ Maxx or Marshalls. Different brands, I am thinking...0 -

Lol.
May we all have butts that stop others in their tracks, in a good way, instead of butts that knock knick knacks (say that three times fast) off of end tables.
I am much happier now that I fit into the first category, and have left the latter category behind!0 -
Wore a Morph Suit for halloween. Other than "Stay Puff Marshmellow man" from Goastbusters I never imagined doing this.0

I have been accustomed to spending a whole trip on a bus or plane crammed against the bulkhead so my fat would not invade the other persons chair space. Now I find that the seats on planes and buses have plenty of room and I am never in danger of spilling over my own seat.0

I remember the first time I flew after surgery. I was so relieved that I didn't need the seat belt extender, and that I could comfortably fit into a seat. When I went on vacation a couple of weeks ago, I had to fly 22 hours each way and it wasn't nearly as uncomfortable as flying for just a few hours when I was over 200 lbs heavier. Being able to travel has been one of the best NSVs of my whole journey.

My husband made dark chocolate brownies and saved the center piece for me. It has been sitting in the foil ever since. I have no desire to eat it!!0

I went to a former coworker's wedding reception tonight. A couple of tables over, I spotted another former coworker that I haven't seen in about two years, and I waved. He didn't seem to notice so I waved again. He looked at me, and I said to my friend, who also knows him, "he doesn't know who I am". He saw my friend that I was sitting next to, then looked back over at me, and he realized who I was and his jaw dropped! He came running over and said he had no idea it was me until he saw my friend. That was the first time someone flat out didn't recognize me and it was actually kinda cool!

Fit in an old size 14 pair of jeans in my closet. Couldn't tell me nothing the rest of the day..............lmao. Felt sooo good!0

I flew on an 8 hour flight across the Atlantic relatively comfortably. Climbed steep stairs to the top of Blarney Castle and kissed the Blarney Stone. Actually did quite a bit of intense walking and climbing around places in Ireland.0

Saw my PCP for a check up Saturday. The printed report he gave me showed my BMI pre surgery at 61+. My BMI today is 37.5 and the report said I am "overweight"! This is the first time I've seen myself described as anything other than either morbidly obeses or obese! As funny as it sounds, I can't begin to tell you how happy I am to be overweight!0

When I climb the ladder to get out of the swimming pool, my hips don't touch the sides!0
