Yesterday my 11 year old daughter asked me to come look at something in another room. When I got there she said, "You know, before you lost weight you probably wouldn't have come." She's right. 105 lbs ago I wouldn't have wanted to get off the couch. The little ways surgery changes your life are sometimes even bigger than you think they'll be.

"Free your ass, and your mind will follow." HW - 287, Start W - 273, Surgery W - 257, Onederland - 4 months 1 week post op, 100 lbs lost - 8 months 1 week, CW - 162

AWESOME!!!! This is the type of thing that is so, so important! It's these little things we don't even think about that are truly significant! What a great compliment your daughter paid you!

You are right. I hadn't thought of that before but there are tons of little things that I do now without even thinking about it. It's wonderful and I think it's great that this little thing meant enough to your daughter to point out the difference.

Love this! :) My daughter (29 years old) said the same thing to me about doing a garage sale. And I have only lost 27 pounds.
