A day of NSVs!

Today I took a spin class - the first since having surgery in June. It was a mental hurdle to get there since I wasn't sure I'd get through it, be too weak, dehydrated, etc. Not only was it fine but I was amazed at how much easier it was 60 lbs lighter. I was actually pushing myself vs just trying to get through the class. It was fun!

After that I spent 3 hours in the back yard on my feet sanding a dresser I'm refinishing.

Before surgery I never would have done both or if I had, I'd be in pain and popping Advil after half of what I did today. 

It's these things that make all this worthwhile. It's been a good day so far!

Congratulations!!! All that energy is a great thing, isn't it??!

OMG yes! I don't feel it day to day (mainly because work stress wipes me out by the end of the day), but there are moments/days like this that serve as a happy reminder.

BTW, looks like you're doing very well. Congratulations right back! 

Thank you! It's a wonderful feeling!

Awesome!

Congratulations!  It's only going to get better and better.  The one thing that has  helped me not put my weight back on is remembering I came from handicap parking, barely being able to walk without my legs going numb to living life as it was meant to be lived.

Enjoy!

So proud of you.  You inspire me.
