couldn't do this 9 months ago

Our washer is in our basement and it decided to overflow. We had a swimming pool down the basement. If I didn't have this surgery I never would have been able to help bail out the basement. It's funny - I go to the gym and do alot of leg and arm weights but the day after we bailed, boy did I ache. the back of my thighs and the back of my back near the shoulders. Here I had thought I have been using all my muscles at the gym but I found out NO I HAVEN'T!!!! Thank GOD for this surgery. Have a great day. Koukla

ISn't it funny when we do really HARD work, those unused muscles rear their ugly heads!! I had a condo once that was like a second floor one. People lived below me. I had to leave my house in an emergency once and forgot my washer was on. Well, when I got home, were the people downstairs mad! The hose popped and flooded their entire CONDO...it was ruined. The walls, the ceilings, the floors..everything. Insurance paid for it and they got a brand new place, but it was chilly hi's for a while! Water damage is awful. paula

It is truly amazing how much extra weight can prevent you from doing stuff......and you don't even really realize what your missing until you can do it.....Maybe I would have been happy not being able to do it.....

Its so great isnt it? I mowed the lawn (which is pretty big) at a quick clip the other day and didnt even get out of breath. Tammy O
