Question of the Day

Good mornin' all. I don't know where Jackie is with our QOD so I will take some pressure off and post one again. Hmmmmmmm...Gotta think of one... Do you have any (what I call) Mini Milestones to report? Mini Milestone=crossing legs, fitting into a tub, wearing something smaller...Anything that is a milestone to you!!! Anything!!!! Whatever you can do not that you could not do before. Mine are: I can cross my legs now I can wear single diget panties (9) Steering wheel does not rub on my belly anymore I can fit into resin lawn chairs (and get out of them) Thats all I can think of right now... OK I want a list from each of you! Tracy

Mini-Milestones: 1. Can cross my legs 2. Can do 2 miles on treadmile at a pretty brisk pace. 3. Gone from 26/28's to 16/18's 4. Can bend over and pull weeds from the garden. 5. Can fit in the airplane seats comfortable and buckle the belt without pinching of circulation. 6. Wear panty hose comfortably again!

Hahaha I was just about to type the question when I saw your post. It is my birthday so I was sleeping in (it is 8.50am here in Houston My list is: Get rid of my seatbelt extender. Use public restrooms without difficulty Fit in the desks at the high school. Jackie

Happy Birthday, Jackie! Hope you have a great day full of joy and blessings. Lisa

I zipped up my winter coat this morning!!!!!! I don't hit my belly when I get out of the shower stall (kind without tub) sliding door --very narrow since it is only 1/2 the width. any fatter before surgery and I was gonna have to switch bathrooms! I can wear bra's from a regular store My ankles don't swell anymore I can eat just 2 bites of something and walk away without dying for more! My husband says I quit snoring (never bothered me )

I can: Exercise a lot easier Tie my shoes Reach to scratch my back Fit in arm chairs Wear my old rings Walk through store/restaurant isles without knocking someone or something over Lisa G

I can cross my legs!! That was so cool b/c I didn't even realize I was doing it until my Mom pointed it out to me. I have all this extra room between me and my steering wheel... I never realized how much my stomach stuck out until it didn't touch the wheel anymore. How cool is that!! ~Rachel

My husband can put his arms all the way around me when he hugs me! I have loads more engery to get up in the morning. My youngest son, Sawyer told me "Mommy you look even more beautiful than you did before." .....its just so sweet that his little eyes can see the difference he is just a little angel Karie -60

I can cross my legs. I can easily fit the seatbelt on me. I got into a size 16 jeans this weekend (snug and they are stretch, but still) I am no longer super morbidly obese or even morbidly obese...just severly obese now. I can see my dimples. I had to move the seat up in my car. Christy

1.Can cross my legs - yeah! 2.Can tie my shoes standing up because now I can see my feet! 3.Can wear size 10 clothes (as opposed to size 20). Costly!! 4.Can ride a bike for 12 miles......with no sweat! (Not really, I live in Miami) 5.Can wear a nice dress that doesn't have to be black because it makes me look smaller. 6.Can wear my daughter and daughter-in-law's "hand-me-downs". Cost Effective! 7.My husband can pick me up without fear of a hernia. 8.The greatest of these is improved health -- a normal blood pressure, no gastric reflux problems and a cholesterol below 180. I am so blessed!
