The walk was great and I really enjoyed it. I have been much more active since surgery but no regular exercise. I have GOT to change that habit!!!
You are such an encourager to me, thanks so much.
Oh, I've lost 16" from my waist.......when I started my hips were as big around as I am tall so I am thrilled to be out of proportion that way!!!!

Crazy, right? 16 inches that's awesome! I still stumble with all the drops in sizes that when people ask what size I am-it takes me a minute to think!! Not like before when I was just adding up X's!

For me:  Clothes!
 And fitting into chairs

I'm still not exercising, but I do move a lot more and walk around more than I did, that's for sure.  I am looking forward to being able to travel and to walk around comfortably, which I hope can happen.  I have a knee replacement and bad feet, so it's hard to know how much that will improve.

Anyway - I love life in this new body, even with another 60--70 pounds left to lose.

 I'm down 120 pounds - thanks to RNY!  Working on the next 25.  Then I'll tackle more...

Ahh fitting into chairs is one my favs too. Every time I sit in a chair with arms I want to shake the person next to me and say "Look what I can do!" ......of course they'd think I was nuts so I don't, but I sure think it!

I'm with you Mary, I've got bad feet too and working out can be quite painful, but there's always the pool...or pain meds! :D

OK, I'll play!  The other day I did a CARTWHEEL!!!!  My 3 year old son looked at me like I had 3 heads and then he giggled and yelled "Again, Mommy, Again!!"  I don't know why it occurred to me to try, but I did it!!    I was sooo happy to impress my son that way  :)))
