City: Gardena State: California | NSV's :) I have a few from the last couple of weeks, that I'm just gonna put together :)
The first one is that I found my class ring about a week and a half ago, and it fits. I graduated in 99, and quit wearing the ring a few years later when it was more comfortable on my pinky. Now it fits, and there's even just the slightest amount of extra room. I'm always adjusting it because it goes crooked, but I'm ok with that :). I didn't even realize that this was an NSV until like 3 days later, lol.
The 2nd one is that I bought 2 pairs of jeans the other night. One of them was size 16 from the plus size section (everything in that section is stretch. I used to be glad, but now it irritates me). The other pair of pants is size 17, non-stretch from the Juniors Department! The 17's are actually tighter than the 16s, but I was just happy to get something from the juniors department at all, lol.
And THEN! Last night I took a bath. I hadn't actually taken a bath in a while (still shower tho ;) ), and it occured to me that I could sit in the bath and not be touching EITHER SIDE of the tub with my body! Yay!
I've been through some frustrating times, and some times where I just resigned myself to the idea that I'd lost some weight, but I was always going to be bigger than average, but at least I'd stay healthy... but I'm getting back into the groove where I feel like this is going to work for me again, and I'm working it right as well.

Sarah, that is so awesome. :) I am so happy for you that you are able to do this in your 20s and not miss out on so many things through those great years. Good luck and keep us updated. Celeste

Yippie Sarah! You are so right - these NSV's are certainly as exciting as seeing that scale drop.
LOVED the bathtub one! :D

Great Nsv's. this is exactly what I mean when I say " do not let the numbers on the sclae dictate your success or failures with the band, think of all of the possitive things that you have accomplished since being banded :)
