NSV (Haven't had surgery yet)
My first NSV and I'm proud. I ate some things I shouldn't have had yesterday and instead of beating myself up about it, I just fixed it and ate better the rest of the day. Before, I would convince myself that since I've ate some bad things I might as well just continue and eat better the next day but this time I didn't allow myself to think that way. I've stuck to my pre surgery plan from my NUT and I plan to continue to, I had a hectic day yesterday so I let myself slip but I got it together and stuck to my plan all day today. & I caught myself saying that I could just maintain at this weight until my surgery but I quickly shut myself down and told myself I can and will lose more before surgery. Some might not consider this an NSV but it is to me and I feel accomplished, very proud. :)
That is a huge NSV. Huge. It took me a few years of being post-op to do that!
By having WLS, we aren't dieting any longer (thank goodness). That's one of the diet things we tell ourselves - start tomorrow, start next Monday, next month....... With WLS and you even before you have WLS, it is a lifestyle and getting back on track is available to us with our next food choice. No beating up ourselves is necessary. We make the healthy choice at our next food choices.
Congratulations and good for you! You're going to do well post-operatively.
