My first WOW moment.....
I have had lots of compliments on the good job I've been doing with this, but my truly first wow moment came yesterday, when I sat down to have a discussion with someone in the office I automatically crossed my legs. I don't think I can possibly think of the last time I've been able to do that!
Thought I'd share

That's so funny. I crossed my legs for the first time in a long time at our Christmas party. I had my husband take my picture for my profile. Like you said, it was a wow moment!
I also did that for the first time in years not too long ago. I realized what I had done the morning of my one month check up on the 18th. I cannot tell you how happy I was, I cried at first and then at my appointment that morning I was all smiles telling Dr. Mann, "I can cross my legs again, LOOK!!!" He just laughed and said yup you are doing great. So congrats, and keep up the good work!

Yep...the crossing the legs thing is pretty awesome!!! although I find my legs fall asleep much easier now then they used to especially when my legs are crossed. But my big wow moment was shopping for clothes. I was wearing a 24/26 at surgery but now all of my clothes were falling off me so I had to give in and get some new stuff. I went and grabbed size 20 of everything and they were all TOO BIG!!! that was the coolest thing EVER!! I actually had to get a smaller size instead of the usual going back for the next size up. And in fact I probably could have gone down two more sizes as I'm going to shrink out of these 18's pretty quickly since they are even a little loose right now.
