I'm 3 1/2 months out and down 53 lbs!! Gone from a size 18 to 8-10! YES!

One of mine is, being able to cross my legs! I've not done that in so long!

Another is more personal, Not feeling embarrassed if my hubby walks in on me changing!

Now, it's your turn. :)

I am 8 months out. Down 110. Lbs. I was so happy when I started crossing my legs. Such a vsg. The other day I walked to pick up my son from school. While waiting I was sitting on the ground and realized I was sitting crossed legged and had a "oh my gosh moment" I have not sat cross legged since the 8th grade. I am 46.

Sitting with my legs crossed is the most amazing thing. Makes me feel feminine for a change. Buying a Sun dress that was NOT in the plus section.

I have a two year old and he always wants me to go down the slide at the park with him. In the past I've never done it because I knew I'd get stuck. But today I did it and he loved it! Also at an event yesterday was able to climb up the bounce house ladder and go down the slide with him. It makes me so happy to get to play with him like this.

My ah-ha moment was then I dropped something into my lap and it fell through to the ground. There is space between my thighs now. A little thing but rather profound for me at the time.

Getting on an airplane and having a lot of seatbelt leftover! Crossing my legs on the plane AND having the tray table down!

Learning how much better designer jeans fit! Who know jean were comfortable? BTW: Have been getting great designer jean at Clothes Mentor, a resale shop, got a pair of NYDJ, Jag, Jennifer Lopez jeans for $18-22 each. They are like brand new and it's been great shopping resale as I "pass through" a size!

Jogging.

The whole leg crossing thing STILL amazes me each and every day! I don't think I will never take it for granted!

Giving away my larger sized clothing to my sister! :rolleyes: (who ALWAYS had a snarky comment)

Ok, yeah the above one might be the biggest "little thing" :P

Crossing my legs UNDER my desk at work is amazing! My pink raincoat, that never fit right fitting without a problem, all of my work clothes being too big!

For all of the challenges on this journey, it is filled with many joys.

Down 30 pounds, down a jean size, one pair of shoes is falling off my feet! Shirts fit better! When I lay on my side my ankles don't touch each other.

NMJG how cute. I remember lifting weights at gym and seeing that gap between my legs. What an awsome feeling for the first time in 25 years..

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
