Lately, my favorite NSV is that I can wrap a bath towel all the way around me and secure it and it stays. The towel actual overlaps and I am completely covered. Seems like a little thing, but I hated how I couldn't do that when I was overweight. So what is your most recent NSV? Let's list them so that those who are doing well can brag and those that are just starting out can see all the good things yet to come!!

How all are you? I ask because at 240-something I could do that. At your weight I would have thought that was an always thing for you. :)

Please consult your surgeon & nutritionist for how to do it their way. Biggest regret? Not doing this 10 years ago! Every day is better than the day before...and it was a pretty great day!

I am only 5 foot and a smidge tall. So 225 lbs was a LOT for me.

I was able to wrap a towel this week! That was fun.

I think my favorite was being able to lose the seatbelt extender on the airplane. Or sitting in my work chair without my hips touching the arms of the chair. Or probably shopping at regular stores - and enjoying it.

There seems to be a new one cropping up weekly.

I had no idea how miserable these 89 pounds were making me! More to go... but so much happier now.

Not using an extender on an air plane and crossing my legs comfortably. Soon I will venture into the world of sweater dresses, leggings, boots and ZIPLINING!!! Weeeeeee!

Boots were a big one for me last winter. Ziplining....um...yeah....I don't know about that, but I hope you have a blast.

So far my favorite one, besides my boobs sticking out further than my tummy, would have to be the other night during a walk with my girls, my oldest decided to run around the block. When she got around the corner she thought I was a completely different person from about 50 yards away. She said I look like a regular mom.
