☠carolinagirl☠ 18,721 Posted September 6, 2012 its not a (huge) success but to me everything and wanted to share w/my bandits. about 3 or 4 months ago (my friend here at work, kathy) and i would go somewhere for an hour lunch. before surgery, she would have to go get the car and bring it around to where i was (as it was parked a distance away). i couldnt do it. i was too (large) and not able to walk across the parking lot. but today, she commented to me about that and saying, now you can. as martha stewart says, its a good thing CG 5 bigenuff, Jim1967, Summerrain and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim1967 3,569 Posted September 6, 2012 Awesome Virginia!! Small successes certainly add up. Funny thing my wife said to me in the grocery store the other day. I used to struggle walking the store and keeping up with her now she is the one who tries to keep pace with me. My back and legs no longer ache. Just the simple walking of the grocery store is so liberating. So I definitely know how you feel. 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Summerrain 520 Posted September 7, 2012 I know exactly how you feel, I used to start huffing and puffing after five minutes of walking and I used to move slower than a snail. Fast forward 56 pounds down and I can easily walk a few hours without getting breathless and the best thing my kids say hey mum slow down lol. 2 A New New Dawn and ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
