Bea - I love my bones too! I know that sounds silly, but I love my collar bone, wrists, ankles and hips...starting to feel some rib bones too. I'm down to a 14 - I can't do the "full cross/hook" yet, but am counting the days!

Hah glad this was bumped yet again, I got my update on it!

At size 18 I was able to easily cross left leg over right no matter what chair I was in.

At size 14 I can cross either leg, anywhere.. even sittin on the edge of a counter, etc. Wooflippinhoo!!

I put 22 because I always cross my legs. But I realized I do it "man style" so I can still do that pretty darn fat! Can I change my vote? :thumbup:

I became comfortable doing it for an extended period at 16. but upper sizes could still cross for short periods. Now in a size 10 they are more comfortable crossed than not. :0)

I haven't been able to cross my legs in so long. When wearing a dress or skirt I usually bring a scarf to tuck under my knees to hold them together lol

At 14, I can do the cross quite comfortably/effortlessly, and the foot is notsticking out. However, I cannot yet do the 'hook' - maybe in another 1 or 2 sizes.

Have to smile at the "bone" comments ~

As I begin to trim down, I love when I start noticing and feeling that "long, lean" look - specifically in my arms - wrists and fingers look like a "normal" size person.

Cannot comfortably cross legs yet but looking forward to it - along with the Indian style sitting. For years I have stayed away from getting down on the ground simply because it is too difficult to get back up.

But I do love that chairs are not feeling tight and uncomfortable as much anymore. It keeps me going!!

It has been so long since I have crossed my legs. I stopped wearing dresses on a regular basis because I could not longer cross my legs. I am already short (I have been claiming 5 foot 4 for years but my surgeon's office burst my bubble on that. I am now officially 5 foot 1 1/2) so I couldn't really cross them gracefully even slim. Now I can't even cross them like a man comfortably. Such is life. I will be glad when I can do that. Sigh.

OK, so I was sitting in a two hour meeting yesterday, and didn't think about it, but just crossed my legs! Havent done that in years and I am down to a size 18.

Jachut - I wish I could hook...I do cross my right leg a lot easier than my left though. I wonder if they are disproportionate? I haven't measured them...or if it is just the right brain/left brain - strength thing.

Oh MAN I want to be able to cross my legs too, I thought it was just a me thing. lol I feel like a guy with my legs all half spread. I want to be able to contort myself in other ways too, but that is another story...:wink_smile: did I just say that? whoops.:thumbup:

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
