Non scale Victory

The climbing before the sledding !

#nonscalevictory #gastricsleevejourney

2025/2/22 Edited to

Non scale victories (NSVs) play a vital role in the weight loss journey, especially for those undergoing transformative procedures like gastric sleeve surgery. These victories can include improved energy levels, enhanced mobility, better fitting clothes, and increased confidence. Embracing NSVs helps individuals focus on holistic wellness rather than fixating on the numbers on a scale. Weight loss can be a challenging process, and celebrating non scale victories can provide necessary motivation. Some examples of NSVs include being able to run a longer distance, fitting into a previously tight outfit, or receiving compliments from friends and family. Engaging with a community or support group can amplify these victories, as shared experiences create a network of encouragement and understanding. By focusing on NSVs, individuals can foster a healthier relationship with their bodies and celebrate every step of their journey.

Usually I don't ride go carts or anything when we take the kids out. I always have them ride and then I sit on the sidelines and take pictures as they're riding by because the straps usually don't fit and I can't buckle in. We took the kiddos up to Midway and my husband made me rid

Non scale victory is when you see a shirt at Target you want but they don’t have a 4x that you normally buy or even a 3 so you take a chance and buy the 2x and it actually fits! You may stand in your kitchen crying ripping the tags off immediately #nonscalevictory #target shirt #shirt from tar

A non-scale victory (NSV) is a way to track weight loss without using the scale. Example of an NSV is when a bath towel that used to be too small now fits all the way around my body. I was really happy about this one! I am happy to be down 65 lbs! It’s the little things that keep me going! #hea

Stay off the scale

No matter what the scale reflects, the truth is, it doesn’t give you much information at all about your health. Weight is only one very tiny part of health as a whole. Health really is your whole physical and mental state of well-being. The number on a scale, however, provides unclear informati
