Yep some non surgery victories :-D Friday I went to the movies with a friend and was able to put both arm rest down and still have plenty or room in my chair :-) Now my niece can hug me and wrap her arms all the way around me :-) oooo... Was able to wear a REALY cute pair or wedges all day :-D Okay I wanna hear some of y'all's now :-D

My assistant came back to work today and we haven't seen each other all summer. Her initial shck was incredible but all through the day she would stop me mod sentence and day "oh my gosh you're going to have to start over because I can't even concentrate on what you're

So many things come to mind:) my biggest was trying on shoes after two months of surgery . I was so excited to be able to cross my legs that I kept asking the guy attending me to bring more shoes to try on. I know I tried on about 25 pairs of shoes from the excitement. Another is buying a belt ) I had not worn a belt since junior high:)) I have cleaned out my closet twice and it's time again . The joy I see in my children's and grandchildren's eyes when they see me and hug me is the best feeling ever. The weirdest thing is when people stare at me and don't say anything:( I wish I ha done this years ago

I could wear the seatbelt in my Mom's van which i never had before! :-)

Although 'high school skinny' wasn't all that skinny for me, I'm there at age 46! Size 14. Woooop woooooop!

I flew to TN to very visit my daughter and grandchildren, the seatbelt had lots of extra room! it felt great

Lol, TMI moment but I like ever poop any more...I'll go 4-5 days then finally give up and take MOM and lose a pound or two....I'm on day 4, hoping it'll kick in ANY time and move the scale down. We're camping this weekend and will be hiking and canoeing all weekend....that really ought to drop me over the edge!!!

I started my new job today and my boss was grabbing me a work shirt annd he looks at me and says "two x is too big isnt it" and I was like. I weae a three x. And he looked me up and down and said "nope you are a big one ex or a small two. I will give you both.

The two x fit. And the one ex is close.

My parents have a big arm chair and a small dog. He likes to sit next to whoever is sitting in the chair. Finally, both me and the dog can fit in the chair.

I bought a dress a while back to wear to my cousins wedding. I had to take it to a seamstress to get it altered a little. I put it on so they could pin it and they had to take in 3 inches....

On each side.
