NSV's and SV's~ post them here!
I just wanted to share my excitement when I weighed this morning and weighed 208! That's about the weight I was as a senior in high school, and when I got married about a year later. I definitely have more saggy belly after 3 kids, but I'm pretty pumped that I'm to the "halfway point" for losing, as my goal is 140.
On the NSV side:
- Rode a roller coaster last week at amusement park
- Walked through amusement park all day without feeling tired
- Fit comfortably in all seats
- Went on a 7 mile canoe trip with kids/hubby on Friday, had a blast!
- Was told by multiple people this weekend how "good I look"
- Ordered some clothes from swap.com and 2 dresses were in a Large. (I know--vanity sizing)--10 more pounds and they are going to look good
Let's celebrate on this crappy Monday with our SV and NSV's!
Consult Weight:276/Surgery Day Weight: 241.6 /Goal Weight: 150
I scored at Goodwill on Saturday with a pair of Limited shorts (size 8, thankyouverymuch), 4 Liz Claiborne shirts (size medium) and a size 8 Bisou Bisou dress that makes my rack look fantastic. All for $25!
I keep a close eye on your posts because your stats are pretty similar to mine. This weekend the scale finally moved after a nearly 3 week stall. Below 220 now - Yeah! I'm hoping to make it to Onederland by our mid-September camping trip. Was able to do some shopping in my closet this week. I have sizes from 4-22. I had lost a lot of weight 10 years ago but of course gained most of it back in the last 5 years. While I was on LOA, I sorted them in bins of S, M, L and "soon able to wear". Hopefully I'll be in the "soon able to wear" soon!
Surgery Date June 3, 2016
HW: 329 W at first consult 290. SW 238, LW 128, CW 139
Haha same! I have shrunk to the point where all of my 22's and 20's are too big, but I have sizes ranging from 16-18 hanging in my closet. I think I got rid of anything that was 14 when I was the smallest with the band, and never got smaller than that.

I'm at 216 now! Really looking forward to that Onederland...
I'm a little nervous about a stall, while I know it's normal, I'm still not going to like it. I'm almost 2 months (the 16th) and I've had no stall to speak of yet. 4 days at the same weight was it. I've been very lucky. I know that's going to change...
I was able to do some 'shopping' on the bottom rack of my closet. Those clothes have been hanging there for a couple of years. The pants literally had dust lines across where they've been hanging I only went through a few, but I'm planning a night this week to get those in better order so I can see what I've got (and wash what I can/will be wearing in the coming weeks).
Still looking forward to the clothes in the guest room though... Once those are all too big I'll truly be on a new journey!

I think I sent you all of my mojo! I've been 216 now for three days!!
Maybe I'm entering into the 'stall zone'...
And I will not let it bother me... I will not let it bother me... I will not... Ugh.

Last night I was going through my closet. I needed something that was comfortable. I put on leggings then I put on a shirt from Victoria Secret. It was an XL. It was all the way down passed my knees.
It was a great shirt to sleep in. NSVs are the best. They keep us going when the scale doesn't move sometimes.
Being able to walk four miles without feeling like I am dying.
Great post.
