I love being able to polish my toes - such little pleasures in life make me happy :smile:

That's awesome! I look forward to doing my toes again without huffing and puffing. lol

It's those little nsvs that keep us going sometimes, isn't it? Keep up the great work!

LOVE THIS POST!! That had to be one of the best things about losing weight. I can also tie my sneakers and put on nylons. I could NOT do any of those things before the Lap Band.

Thanks for posting this. You are right, it is the small things we should commend ourselves on--not the number on the scale but things that make our life better. :smile:

After I lost 70 pounds I could tie my sneakers. Now, after another 35 pound loss, I can tie them so the bow is on top of the sneaker and not off to the side fat lady style. :smile:

Isn't it great!!!! The simple things that are such great accomplishments when losing weight!

I have lost 50 lbs now and I am just loving that I can actually "suck in" my gut :smile:

I LOVE when people share their NSV's! That is fantastic! You should give yourself a big pat on the back!!! All of you :smile:

It used to such an effort to paint my toes, now it's easy. Isn't it a great feeling?!!

Fitting into arena seats (comfortably), your feet not hurting anymore when you wear heels, being able to stand or walk for hours without effort, no more swollen ©ankles, joints hurting less, being able to shop anywhere, the list is endless! Skinny people may not get it, but you all do.

Leg-crossing rocks! I like wrapping a regular sized bath towel around me--and having nothing protrude. (Actually, there's an 11-inch overlap--yes, I measured LOL).

And being in the bathtub---with everything submerged. That's fun.
