Had a bath and other nsv

For the past 8 years I have not been able to get out of a bath tub due to my size and not being able to tolerate being on my knees. I missed the bath but learned to accept it as a way of life and went from there. Always took showers and had an awful time trying to wash my feet and to reach neitherworld parts.  Well my friends, yeaterday I worked at nailing and overreaching all day and my back and shoulders were so sore and tired that I wished I could lie in a warm water bathtub. Finally I said to heck with this, I'm going to do it. I ran a 3/4 full tub and climbed in. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to get out but said to he11 with it and did it. OMG, I was able to get in, lie down and easily pushed myself up and climbed out. I couldn't believe it. A bath. A soak. Heaven.

Yesterday was the first time someone commented on that I had lost weight. My clothes have been getting too big for awhile now but nobody really said anything about my looking smaller. Yeasterday someone who I had not seen in 2 months commented on that I had lost a lot of weight. I know I'm not doing this for anyone but me but it felt good to have someone notice.

My weight is still 206. Another stall. I really don't mind the stalls though because I know I'll start losing again in a little while. In those stalls, I will gain a pound or two and lose a pound. That can go on for a month or so sometimes but I always end up losing in the end. And that's all that really matters. I am so close to my first goal, I can almost taste it. UUGG so close but so far away. I'll get there. By the end of Aug I should be at my first goal.

Worse thing for me now is trying to find a bra to fit the girls. I don't even know where to start. I will need to pretty soon though. The sleeper bras that I wear now are getting too big.

That is wonderful Maggie.
BTW go to Sears and asked to that the girls measured- it's free. Besides they have a clearance sale right now.

 WTG Maggie!  NSV's are the best.  And when it comes to onderland - it is a very hard place to get into!!  I weigh about 209 and the scales won't move.  Oh well, they will have to move sooner or later - hopefully sooner.
Congrats on the compliments too!

Thanks for the info Charline. I will go to sears to have a look. I'd love to get fitted for one that fits properly but I couldn't imagine letting anyone see the girls in their poor deflated condition. I hat e to see them myself and they belong to me. We are talking EEElong LOL.

Hey Maggie

Congrats on your NSV! We are redoing our bathrooms and I told hubby get a soaker tub - I havent done baths in a zillion years and I want a big deep one to have bubble baths in !

Maggie they will measure you at Additionelle - I know there is one in SJ and lets face it - they have measured all sorts of girls! lol - I had a friend recently go in and they measured her with her tshirt on - she was wearing just a sleeper bra /tshirt bra so they were able to measure like that and they were bang on first bra perfect fit!

I have yet to find a long bra but will alert the troops when I do cause I hear ya - if you are using your laptop in bed and your laptop is on your lap and its late and you are getting sleepy  and shut your laptop down and the girls get pinched.....- its might be time to get them some help!

YES I AM SERIOUS AND TELLING YOU THIS DID HAPPEN! ASK HUBBY WHO ALMOST HAD THE BIG ONE  LAUGHING AT ME WHEN I SCREAMED OUCH!

Yup girly I know looonnnnggggggg! 

hugs

We can be less than discrete when we are discussing the girls on this forum. We are an honest bunch, that's for sure!
