3for1 Daily Post--7/19 to 7/21

My daughter and I got annual passes to Disneyland and try to go at least twice a month. Pre-WLS, it had been years since my last amusement park visit. I also have three nephews - age 6 and 3 year-old twins. I babysit at least once or twice a week, and I'm able to swing and slide with them, run with them, and play cars with them. I love my life now!

Amusement parks, shopping, football games, soccer games, trips to the park, etc etc etc.... I am actually living the life of a MOM, no****ching from the sidelines! YaaaaaaaaaaaaY!

Amusement park. I have taken my daughter to a carnival and a large amusement park in the last couple of weeks. It was great, yesterday we were at Elitches for 10 hours and had a blast!!!!!!! I wouldnt even have attempted the rides before surgery. Vivienne

I don't have kids, however I can take my nephew to the amusment parks and actual get on the rides with them.

My kids are all grown now, but I'm not yet a grandmother. But I can say that I've come to love clothes shopping with them. I never liked to go pre-WLS because nothing ever fit, so it was just depressing. Plus, I got tired easily. Now I'll shop all day long with them if they want.

We go swimming>>>>I actually put on a bathing suit, wear it in public and swim!!!!

Bike ride, go to movies, went to Noah's Ark Water Park. I just do more period. I love hanging out with my family as I am not so uptight all the time. I invite everyone to go exercise with me...but no takers on that.

Well its not that I couldn't its more that I refused was to embarrassed. I know spend time with them IN the pool - oh there is one thing I couldn't do and that was go down a pool slide now I can and the feeling is awesome.

I was able to have kids. Before my surgery they told me since I was 18 that I wouldn't be able to have children. And I got pregnant 8 1/2 weeks after my surgery. The baby made it here in one piece, healthy and wonderful. I have continued my weight loss journey although it is slower now that it was in the beginning. I have a beautiful baby boy and am able to roll around the floor, play with him and chase him everywhere.

We walk together and they don't have to slow down for me... We play together We ride rides together and we live life together!! Lori
