I want to shout out that I can now paint my toenails without being a contortionist !

Shout out to having to spend an entire shift holding up my recently bought work pants from hitting the floor. In that case i gotta remember to wear sexy undies so I would not Be to embarrassed encase my pants do fall. Lol

I want to shout out to my wonderful wife of 25 years. She has been there with me through my sleeve and three other serious surgeries. She goes with me to my support group and is a very active participant, who gets applause at every meeting. She gives me support when I am feeling down and has always spoken about my sleeve as our journey and surgery, since we have gone through so much in our almost years together.

Good one!
Easily remedied with new pants.
Actually, my several supremely embarrassing instances with pants hitting the ground occurred because my belt and pants slipped down to the Southern Hemisphere of the huge globe of a belly I had. My smaller hips were no help and down they went along with my dignity. I am so happy to have exposed hip bones again, I go belt-less now with no trepidation.

I want to shout out that my pants are falling off!!!

This is a great topic & I'm enjoying all of the posts, especially the DONUTS!!! LOL...I love it. You all made me smile. Thanks, cause if you saw my other recent topic, you'll know I'm not feeling too well. Anyway....CONGRATS FOR MAKING IT TO ONEDERLAND!!!!! Whew I sure can't wait until I get there!!

Just actually did this. Dancing around, stereo blasting, mopping my kitchen floor, I literally shouted out "LOVE MY SLEEVE!!!!!!" = D = D = D

Hahahahaha I love it..... Congratulations to everyones success so far..... I want to shout out french fries you have no hold on me anymore.... HAHAHA I WIN!

Congratulations!! I'm jealous!
I'll give a shout out to my wonderful husband! He's been my greatest support and continues to be there helping me along my journey! I love him! Also, I went down a dress size! Woo hoo! Love my sleeve!
