Me, crawling on the floor!

[Kitt3000 757]

This morning, as I was crawling on the floor, playing monster trucks with a two year old, I found myself feeling so grateful ! In 14 months post surgery, how my life has changed! The chronic back pain is now occasional, I can RUN without getting out of breath, I am a size 2-4 instead of 18, my energy level is through the roof! Could not be happier! Thanks to the lap band, I truely have a new lease on life! Wishing you all success however you define it!

Re: Crawling on the floor. I always get reminded of how happy I am to have lost and kept off much of my excess weight when I'm down on the floor wrestling with our kitties and I have to get up. I no longer have to crawl to a sofa, chair or coffee table to leverage myself to a standing position because the weight was far too much on my knees to stand up where I was.

Thanks for the inspiration! I have a few toddlers in my life and hope to be chasing them around this summer and getting up and down off the floor. A friend and I recently joked that this could be an entire exercise class -- just standing up and sitting down in place, get up, sit down. We could throw in crawling for the intermediates! Congratulations on all -- your enthusiasm is contagious.
