NSV's so far

I am only @ 11 weeks post-op and already enjoying the following NSV's:

1. Back, hips & knee hurt so much less when walking now

2. I can walk up the steps to my 2nd floor apartment with ease now, if I have to make multiple trips to carry groceries up, I do it without getting exhausted, before this I would have to rest between trips.

3. I am 3 sizes smaller so far

4. Everyone tells me I have more pep in my step, that I glow, and I am so much happier I smile all the time now. People noticing is a great motivating booster.

5. I admit to not using my bipap every night, but I can tell I don't need it much longer !! Will follow up with sleep doctor soon.

6. Starting to see & feel my knee bones. My arms are slimming. I am starting to feel my hip bones when laying down.

7. And new NSV today, I woke up with a stiff neck, was rubbing my neck to my shoulders and I felt my shoulder bones !!! I don't know if I can remember feeling that in over 15 years

Loving this journey to a healthy me. Yes surgery sucked, I was in pain for weeks after, I have stalls (oh the stalls), it isn't always easy, I'm not perfect at fluids, Protein & exercise every day. I have some people who don't support my decision and sometimes I just want something I can't have (well my head wants it, lol) but I wouldn't change a thing about my decision.
