My NSV
so today I was taking a photo of myself...and I realized that I had cheekbones without having to makeup contour them in....they were just naturally there....It was soo exciting.
I had RNY Feb 9, and have lost 30 lbs so far....I'm currently stalled out, but I wish I had taken measurements because I think that is what is changing. I wish I had done RNY sooner. In a couple of lbs, I'm the lightest I've been in 4 years.
Holy cheekbones!!! What a great NSV!! You're a natural beauty. :)

Wow you can really see your cheekbones. That is great. Are you starting to get a lot of comments? That is a great feeling.

don't worry about it, it took me forty pounds before someone other than very close friends noticed. It will come and besides I am so busy admiring myself I dont need anyone else - (howling with laughter!)

I was not a fast loser but who cares as long as you get there! I know the newbies check the trackers and the signatures so although I kind of lost track of how the rest of the weight came off, you should know that it was not fast and furious but it was slow and steady!
current BMI 24.7 that, my friends, is NORMAL!!! Strong is the new pretty!
