Would I have been able to do this at 327 lbs? I don't think so...
Congrats on your life changing surgery Kate!!! Being able to get up and down to and off the floor and up and down flights of stairs were and are the most awesome NSVs for me ... as a matter of fact my not being able to climb stairs to assist my daughter who had taken a fall was one of the principal factors that made me make my mind up finally to have this surgery and now for me there is no going back.... You will definitely get there .. just pursue and persevere ... it is worth it...
Oh, I do celebrate you and your success and your talent and your creativity! Plus the puppies are very very cute.

Your goldens are awesome and BEAUTIFUL and I can just imaging the energy ... these teeny ones have much energy and are a trip ... I took a video of them romping/playing and tumbling with each other refusing to go to sleep ... the mom Pierretta is over them now so that leaves us humans to step in LOL...
