I can cross my legs!



Recommended Posts

I don't remember the last time I could sit with my legs crossed. I'm almost 3 months out and I've lost 70lbs. Only obese people get what an accomplishment it is in the simple act of sitting comfortably with crossed legs. 20 more lbs and I might brave high heels. HW 330 SW 319 CW 245.

I am so with you. I remember the first time I crossed my legs in ages and it was like.... OMG!!!!!!!!!!
No one else cares or notices, but for me it was a big milestone.

Another one is no longer having anxiety about getting up off the floor.

Congrats on your crossed legs, on to the heels :-)

I just started being able to cross my legs, too! It's still a tight fit, but possible!

Today, the towel closed at the bottom!! A large bath towel (it wasn't a beach towel)!

Lol. I so remember the excitement I first had, when I could cross my legs like the old men.. I would be at work in meetings with my legs crossed my coworkers would just chuckle at me..

Crossing my legs is the best thing. I find myself doing it all the time. Oh my, and the heels. I'm so excited to wear them again. No matter how much weight I gained I refused to throw my shoes out. Last week I tried on shoes and just took pictures of my feet. I know it sounds crazy but I was so excited to be able to walk in them.

That's so exciting! Good for you! And good for you for recognizing that these things sometimes mean more than the number on the scale! Keep up the good work!

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

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
