New Things!
What have you done that you never thought you'd do or haven't done in a very long time?
* Bubble Bath! Before, not much room for me and water.....but last week I has some alone time, took a good book, some coffee and lots of bubble. It was wonderful.
* Belt - BELT! Yes, I wear a belt almost every day. I need it to hold up my pants...no pants on the ground for me.
*Stairs - if it's only one flight, I choose the stairs! and I'm not winded when I get to the top. I also walk at the airport instead of taking the moving sidewalk.
*Swim suit - I bought a couple. One from Lands End was a size 12!!!
*Sharing clothes - well almost, but my daughter and I are getting our laundry confused. She's a M and I'm a L.
*Being noticed - this can be a bit uncomfortable, especially if the opposite sex has never really paid attention to you. I get smiles in public. It's a shame really that the world is nicer to you when you are not super morbidly obese!

Great Post!
1. Cross my legs.
2. Swing on our swing in the back yard
3. Cuddle up on the couch hugging my knees.
4. Shave my legs without feeling like I can't breathe.
5. Hold my kids on my lap
6. Go on rides at Disneyland without fear of not fitting
7. Put my leg up on my seat when I drive (maybe not so safe...)
8. Sleep in my hubby's t-shirts
The list goes on and on...I also have most of what you did too, except I haven't worn a belt. I am contemplating buying that BeBand though. I have been eyeing it for months. Its meant for pregnant ladies but because I have so much excess skin in my stomach pants dont fit me very well. My legs are probably a 10 but my stomach is a tight 12 and the way the pant**** start to get uncomfortable after a few hours. The BeBand goes over the top of your jeans and holds them up so you can leave it unbuckled. Its onsale at Target right now, so I may pop in there and just buy it. Great post!
