POST YOUR OWN FUN FACT!

Hello all, I thought today we could all try and come up with some funny facts about the things that have changed in our lives since losing weight! Here is mine... IT TAKES A LOT MORE WATER, AND TIME, TO FILL THE BATHTUB NOW, I DON'T DISPLACE AS MUCH WATER AS I USED TO!

Hey Tracy, That's a good one My fun fact would probably be 'straight shoelaces'- My laces before were always kinda off to one side cuz I couldnt bend over far enough or pull my leg up far enough to have the laces centered.. Weird but true... : Have a great weekend !

HI there Tracy, Let me try to name some things I could not do before that I can do now. I can now wrap the towel completely around me after a . Before I could hardly get it to tie a knot. I can also clip my seatbelt much easier now when my I get in the car after my manicure. Before I could not see it and would mess my nails up all the time. There are so many things now, I just can't think. The best of all is now I can really feel a massage...Straight to the Bone. Before I really could not feel the whole impact of a good massage. Take care of yourself Tracy and lets enjoy these good things that normal people enjoy everyday, which we could not enjoy before our WLS Lorraine

I can go swimming on one of those CHEAP air mattresses and not sink!

I can sit in the tub and when I let the water out.... I don't have to actually get outof the tub, to let the water out... I'm no longer a DAM!! The water actually goes all the way around me!! ~Rachel

Seeing my kneecaps for the first time in years ranks up there. Having to buy smaller SHOES was fun. My armpits actually have PITS now, not mounds of fat. My lower thighs and knees no longer rub. I DO have a neck! I don't get stuck in turnstiles anymore. I can reach the gas pedal in the car with more than just my toes now. I have to cut INCHES at a time off of my clothes to take them in. I can FEEL my shoulder bones. OMG, I just looked - I can SEE my ankle bones now! Looking forward to seeing my collar and wrist bones! Cheap thrills, but hard-won! All the best to everyone! Donna

Hi Tracy! Isn't it funny what we are growing to appreciate. Its so much fun! Okay, I love wiggling my fingers to see the bones in my hand move! I can almost get my thumb and middle finger around my wrist. I can feel different bones- shoulder (which I can now reach around and scratch if necessary) and collar bone. Can't see the collar bone yet, but can feel it. I can cross my legs. I can touch my toes. I had to move my seat up in the car (and now my DH has problems when he drives my car). I can finally sit in those resin/plastic deck chairs that used to cut the circulation off in my leg and live big indents (sp??). Ahhhhh, its the little things that make us smile! Way to go everyone! Take care, Kathy

I don't have to turn sideways to walk out of my shower stall!!! The towel wraps around and tucks in! i don't mind walking around nekkid anymore My fingers are skinny again!!! and smaller than my hubby! I can wrap my thumb and index finger around my wrist (have to squeeze a teeny bit)
