NSVs ARE ALWAYS GREAT
I took a shower Saturday (yep it was Saturday lol) getting ready to go to the Temecula Family Fair. When I got out of the shower I realized that about a year ago I had to use a beach towel to wrap around me but now I used a regular towel. Wow.. We went to Old Town Temecula yesterday to a restaurant/bar called the Bank to eat some Mexican food. The waiter put us in a booth and I had no problem whatsoever sliding in. Another YIPEEE.. Today, I bought a new sleeveless top (ughh bat wings and wrinkled arms) but I needed one in Navy to go with a pair of shorts--sz XL. I was wearing 4x-3x when I started my WL journey. Although I am not losing weight right now (my own doings) my size is changing along with the energy level and so many other positives. I so love my sleeve. Yep the restriction is definitely there--showed me on Sunday at the Mexican restaurant. Love to y'all.. Pam
That is such a great NSV! I know prior to my sleeve, I could ONLY use/buy "bath sheets" because regular towels would not close around me. Not the case anymore! I love going to a hotel and knowing I can use one towel and walk around! WTG!!!

I recently stayed in a hotel for the first time post-op. I was THRILLED that the hotel towel fit around me! How exciting are all these things we get to (re-)discover?!
