I forgot that I used to be fat!!!!

My sister was complaining that her feet hurt and it occurred to me... Mine don't!!

I got a turkey leg (inside secret..... Disney is famous for them) and walked around like I owned the world (didn't even occur to me that I was bolting up hills with a giant turkey leg in my hand.

I just felt normal (other than the vitamins and adding protein to all my waters, of course!).

My sister took a pic of "me and my turkey leg" and I will post it when she forwards it to me.

I'll never forget the day I walked around Sea World and didn't tire. I walked around the OC fair... same thing. Amazing turkey legs at D-Land!

Picture is from the Disney Food Blog.

It's so wonderful to feel normal and walk around like "normal" folks. I used to ride one of those little carts everywhere. No more.

I bet you weren't worried about fitting into any of the rides either, were you?!? That is SO awesome. My legs always feel like bloody stumps after Disney or Universal...I was actually in tears last time we went (Halloween Horror Nights, 2010), but it was SO much fun! Congratulations!!

Excellent NSV!!! I'm glad you such a great time! You did own your world!

I'm in California now hiking hard for 3 weeks- no problems! It feels so good, doesn't it?

Wow! It is so great to hear your story. I'm just starting out, so you are really inspiring me.

Keep up the good work. I see that you are near your final goal.

Great! Did ya feel like a thin Henry the 8th with the T-leg?

Nice not to get sore feet too. I remember when I noticed that and when I could cross my knees, tuck in my shirt without looking like the Michelin Man, wear a belt, stop shopping in L. Bryant, etc.

Yay!
