Hi all!

I saw a thread like this in the January 2008 Bandsters and thought it would be a nice idea for us avengers to try, I know it hasn't been that long but I bet (like me) there are lots of people who havn't lost a huge amount of weight but something has happened to them lately that made them think YES!

My NSV's:

1. Having my dad say a pair of shorts I had never been able to wear before looked good- He had (he's had WLS too) a weight problem himself and I always felt he was critical of my weight, so the compliment felt a million times better then anything anyone else could have said.

2. Trying on a skirt I bought and was previously unable to do up, only to find it fits PERFECTLY now- not only that but it's GORGEOUS!

Subsequently trying on everything in my wardrobe (I mean EVERYTHING!) and not having to squeeze my way into anything

I look forward to sharing in some of your NSV's!

We toured a lighthouse in Oregon last week and I was able to climb all 111 steps to the top without huffing and puffing and my face didn't get all red either!

I think we already have a thread going on NSV's...it hasn't been posted to in a while, but this will do nicely too!

1. I painted my toenails yesterday, all by myself
2. I am now wearing the smallest clothes in my closet
3. I wore two SKIRTS to work this week. I forgot what my legs looked like! LOL
4. Sitting down and seeing a waistline. Used to be rolls of fat I'd call my "shelf"
5. Crossing my legs - BIG ONE!!!

I used to have a nice 'shelf' on which to put the remote on while in the recliner. It would stay put nicely. Now it rolls off.... I guess Ill just have to set it on the side table....
