FART of my own...cool!

Hey all.... I was sitting at a meeting yesterday am, with some new business partners, and I had pushed my chair back from the boardroom table. I was nodding to the speaker and thinking "gosh, I hope he doesn't go on and on and on on this point," and I crossed my legs and settled in as he did go on and on and on. About 2 minutes later, I suddenly looked down at my legs. For the past 20 years, when I'd cross my legs it'd be an ankle sitting on a knee style. Yesterday, it was a knee right over top of a knee -- comfortably lounging in a chair! I didn't sputter or say a thing, I just looked at my legs, and thought  to myself...."man, is this cool or what?" Thanks one and all here for the help and support in getting this far. Oh I know I've still got like 65 lbs to go...but I'm just so DANG happy! Jim

Jim, Way to go!  I'm looking forward to being able to do that myself about 6 months from now.

My knees and ankles have never met, at lest not in 25 years, it will be blessed reunion for sure

Jim, isn't that a great feeling?  I'm noticing that as well.  Not quite knee to knee yet but getting close. Congrats!!!

I thought I was alone in noticing this. I love to sit and watch TV while crossing my legs now. Before surgery I would pull my legs beside me and lean over towards the arm of the couch. It may not sound comfy, but at the time it was. Anyway, I enjoy my new "comfy" position better.  Good Goin" Jim!

Jim, Glad to hear your enjoying the ride..... Keep up the good work.

Great one Jim!!  You're doing great! Had to chuckle when I read this as I had the exact same experience a couple weeks ago - was sitting with some clients and just happened to look down and noticed I had crossed my legs - knee over knee - and had apparently been sitting that way for a bit without even noticing.   Steve

Jim, That was one of my favorite ‘new things.’ Amazing how such a little thing can make you feel, Just because it used to be Impossible….. Someone who hasn’t "Been There" wouldn’t understand that one at all….. Keep it Up!!! Best Wishes- Dx
