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

Tube socks with a tennis ball at the bottom!

I went on a date with an adorable and charming man who told me I'm beautiful, not cute, not nice smile, not great personality, BEAUTIFUL....other than my son, I believe that's the first time I've ever heard that.

That is awesome! I am also dating a guy for the first time since my divorce in 2008. He has been doing all of the right things! I can't believe how much has changed in my life in the last two years. Not just the surgery but it is a huge part of it. We are all so awesome!

I fit into an XL (fits like a large) jacket a friend gave to me that I wasn't able to fit in to before. Definitely a NSV!

I have a work sweatshirt that I picked up thinking it would be a goal I can fit into in a couple months (I got it last week). I tried it today to see how far I have to go and it fit! The waist was a little tight because I am losing much faster on my upper body than lower body, but I can totally wear it. It's an XL, and I was an XXXL two months ago.

That's a great feeling aint it. ))

I actually like clothes shopping now and feel like I look like a girl.

U look really nice.

I was able to wrap a standard towel around me - not a beach towel I was amazed!
