I bet you are wondering what SMET is. Well smet is short for SO MUCH EASIER TO........
Since we have had our WLS we need to sometimes focus on how much easier it is to do things that "normal" people take for granted. Here are some of my SMET items....feel free to share yours.

SInce my WLS it is SMET.......
Tie my shoes,
Get in and out of the car,
Walk and climb stairs,
Fit into a pubic restroom stall,
Buy clothing,
Fit into a booth at a restaurant,
Exercise,
Get up off furniture,

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

GOD GRANT ME THE SERENITY TO ACCEPT THE THINGS I CAN NOT CHANGE; COURAGE TO CHANGE THE THINGS THAT I CAN; AND THE WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE !!!! THIS IS MY DAILY PRAYER.

SMET:
Get down on the floor to love on my aging dog AND stand back up with ease

Go to a hotel and only need one standard size towel instead of packing my own bath sheets

Buy pretty bras and panties

Enjoy my front porch with a beautiful swing

To sleep without getting tangled up in a CPAP hose (and help out my sister who needed a CPAP machine and was able to use the one I no longer needed)

Do my own pedicures
