You are quite welcome! I am amazed, myself. It's all in the attitude, I think.

I just got back from Vegas a couple of weeks ago and it is the first time I went there since surgery. 

I was able to walk the strip 3 days from about 8:30-9 a.m. until about 3-4 in the afternoon.  The buffets did not hold the magic they did before and as my DH told me, they made $$ off of me.  Also, I was able to walk through the airport without my back killing me as what happened the last time I went to Vegas.  I also needed a wheelchair and a seat belt extender--neither of which I needed this time. 

I was able to try on XL in regular stores--I still have weight I need to lose but I have the 8 pound bounceback but yet my clothes fit.  Redistribution I guess from exercise. 

I let my DH take pics on this trip too.  I know the camera never was my friend before. 

It is a lot of fun being an active participant in life.  I know I saw things that I didn't see before (mountains, scenery, architecture of hotels).  I loved walking through the Louis Vitton store and dreaming about the $2000 purse I wanted and the Coach store and dreamed about the $800 snakeskin purse).  Clothes and accessories were not things I really cared about before so this is fun!!

Congratulations!!  Life is fun isn't it.
