    I climbed to the top of Mt. Bonnell (huge hiking staircase place) while carrying a 35 lb toddler on my back. And it was still way, way easier than before surgery.

    Thanks! It was :smile: This was on my short list of reasons why I wanted the surgery too - some people may think silly - but when you have never in your life been able to do it because you have turkey legs LOL it's an amazing feeling!

    @tlogesi, that's hilarious. The same thing happened to me with a pair of shorts but thankfully, it was in my house. Not wearing those anymore. Definitely a NSV!

    This was my first NSV. I posted it one month ago before I knew what an NSV was. LOL..

    "It's a great feeling when you try to buckle your belt and you discover that you need to make some new holes to make it fit smaller!! Haven't had to do that in many years. I always had to adjust it bigger, never smaller. Great feeling."

    Benn chasing mile #2 (15 minute time limit) for a few weeks now. Finally caught it, and went on for another half mile in my 18 minute pre-lifting session. This is on the elliptical, I have not started running yet.

    I taught 4 Zumba classes in one day! Before getting sleeved, there would have been no way!

    We had cookies and punch night at Vacation Bible School and all I had was a glass of water. No fresh baked chocolate chip cookies made by our church chef who makes really good food.

    Well - I'm 2 years out and although the NSV's are not as frequent, I still encounter them! My most recent? Fitting into the summer clothes I had last year! Usually every year I had to buy new clothes because (a) I either wore them out, or (b) I gained more weight.

    I was nervous this summer that perhaps I had "filled out" some since last summer (even though my weight has been steady), and my clothes from last summer fit great, and some are even a little big! YAY!

    That's awesome that you have maintained. Good going.

    Way to go, @Trayjay33! That's awesome. I'm just striving for the day when I'm no longer obese.
