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

I was spring cleaning my daughter's room' date=' and I was happily astonished to find that I can crouch and reach and crawl and get back up as if I were 10 years younger! Hurrah![/quote']

Alright

I can fit with my son or daughter in the chair and I'm not squeezing them & there is room left. Before I took over the entire seat. On the sofa we can also both fit in one cushion not me taking over the entire half the sofa.

So I went back to the gym for the first time today since surgery. It felt so good... I don't know if I can type this out and explain it well but here goes. Before surgery there was this machine that you sit in and it works your thighs you spread out your thighs as much as you can and squeeze them back together. Well... When the trainer first had me do this machine I cried because I was so fat I could hardly fit I this machine nd to do the exercise I ha to actually sit in the chair and hold my stomach out of he way to get my legs to be able to squeeze together..., well the good news I sat my butt right in that machine today and doing the excessive when it hit me all of a sudden my stomach wasn't in the way I didn't have to hold it in with my hands I almost cried!!!!! Lol it was a good time hahaha

I had freaked out a couple of weeks ago when a pair of my size 14 jeans fit. They were tight but buttoned:). Two days ago they were falling off of me. I actually had to check the size because I thought I accidentally put on a pair of my old size 18. Nope they were the size 14:). A couple of months ago getting into those 14s seemed completely unattainable and now they are too big! Wow:). I love this!

Congratulations! Sounds like an excuse to go shopping! :-)

A milestone is a milestone! Congratulations! I'm looking forward to painting my own toes... pedicures are heavenly but I can't be doing one EVERY week.

Lol dare I say it's gone down to only one chin already:)

Nice!!! I hope mine does soon too!!!

Wow..youre a 12!

Maybe a very tight 12:)

How awesome for you!!! I can't wait to start losing again. Once we get my thyroid issue addressed' date=' maybe I can begin moving forward (and downward) again as well.

Congratulations!!! You should post a new picture![/quote']

Thanks. I'll do that! Thyroid issues mess up everything . Hope it gets better soon?

Congratulations! Sounds like an excuse to go shopping! :-)

Ooooh:) I love excuses to go shopping!

Ooooh:) I love excuses to go shopping!

Isn't it wonderful to actually enjoy shopping for clothes? I can't wait!

I can't wait!

I always look at restaurant booths with fear and horror. I still find myself looking and judging quickly if I'm going to struggle or even be comfortable. Still my thought process! But I've noticed how comfortable I am and how easy I slide in and out and have room

Life's good

Wow! I fit in a chair today I couldn't fit in 6 weeks ago!

I see everyone talking about wanting to keep their boobs. I definitely want mine to shrink but I'm worried they will look like pancakes. I am a 42DDD right now...

I was a 44DDD, and wish they wouldn't leave so quickly! I really miss them and don't know how I'm feeling about going down to a C cup right now. A coworker just gave me a huge box of clothing and she said to get some sports bras for the transition, they're more comfortable. I don't have any regrets, I just wish I had more warning!
