OMG I crossed my legs !!!!



Recommended Posts

the other night I was watching TV and my husband came into the room and stood in front of me and said "ive never seen you do that before" I said "what?"

he pointed at my legs and I realised I HAD THEM CROSSED !!!!!!!!!!:)

Its been years and years since I had done that and I did it without even thinking about it

then I thought about all what I could do that I couldnt do a year ago

like

prepare the dinner without sitting down at the worktop

stand and wash the dishes without leaning on the sink and doing them with one hand.

walk to the bottom of our small garden without worrying how I was going to make it back

breathe easier

walk up stairs and not have to plonk myself down on the bed to get my breath back

go upstairs for something without thinking about it and psyching myself up for the journey

reach all parts of myself in the shower without using a long handled brush

wearing shoes two sizes smaller so much more choice

clothes 7 sizes smaller again much more choice

the list is endless I think.

wonderful isnt it

three cheers for my band my true and trusted friend

:clap2: :clap2:

hurrah!

I know the power of the List of NSVs full well. It is pretty stong stuff to be able to read over your NSV list any time you are feeling down, or heck, when you want just a small pick-me-up.

Congrats on your list, and here's hoping that this next year will bring you many more NSVs.

I have to admit, that is on of the things I'm most looking forward to (crossing my legs) I carry my weight in my hips and thighs so I can't wait to be able to do that!! Good for you!! :)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
