No Limits!!

Dec 16, 2011

Something sort of funny... when I would see the word laptop I would just laugh. I never had a lap and so I would always call it my laptop my "bellytop". I know kind of corny.   
Oh, I know another tid bit..... I just am so amazed when I walk now. For me, prior to having surgery, I used to be able to move about a foot and would be winded and have to bend over and try to breathe. For me getting dressed was a full work out and I got to where I would need help with my socks and shoes.   My getting dressed consisted of putting on my slinky material skirt and slinky material shirt at my biggest of 654 lbs.  Bra and undies were not always in that picture.  But it was still like a full blown workout just to do that much.   So now, as I walkto and from buses and place I need to go, and I would get where I needed to go. I would stand there almost in "shock"... stop and listen... to myself breathe... focus on how I felt... and notice that I looked like other people. I stood with all the rest of the people around me. I sat on the bus in the back, the middle, and the front. No limits!! I am amazed and it feels so strange.  Silly things, but all so exciting!!  There are so many things that are so small to people but so strange that I can do.  I sometimes laugh at myself.  Sometimes I pinch myself and ask if this is really me. (Ok, so I know it is me, but for real... it is just strange for me). Inside and out, I feel like I am doing a life long happy dance. Things seem endlessly possible. I can and am doing life!!  No limits!!
