My First NSV!!!!

This morning I have had my first NSV!  (Non-Scale Victory).  :-)  I am all smiles about it.  My bariatric program required me to lose 5% of my body weight before I can be sent to the surgeon for a consult.  I am happy to report that I am 4 pounds BELOW the goal weight they asked me to get to.  And...(drum roll, please)....this morning, I put on 2 pairs of jeans that I haven't been able to wear in over 4 years!!!!  They've just been hanging in my closet, waiting for me to get small enough to wear them.  And this morning, I threw away my bigger jeans, which are now hanging on to my hips for dear life so they don't sag to my ankles!  Yippee!!!  I threw them away, because I AM NEVER GOING BACK THERE.  :-) 

Tomorrow, I go for my final doctor's appointment at the weight clinic, and Friday is my final nutrition class.  After that, I will be scheduled for my surgery consult.  Wow, this is happening so fast...a month from now, I will either have recently had surgery, or it will be fast approaching.  So thankful for my wonderful, supportive, husband, family and friends.  Before surgery, I have to do a 2-week straight liquid diet.  Travis has committed to doing the liquid diet with me.  I love him.  :-) 

That's all the news for now...I will keep the blog updated as things develop!  Thanks for reading!
