Oh How Awesome!!! I had a similar experience just a few days ago when my
cat decided he wanted to visit the great outdoors! lol! I had to chase him
all around the neighborhood, and I realized as I carried him home, that I
hadn't even broken a sweat even though I had been out there for two hours!
LOL! Ain't life grand!!!

I hope you guys know how lucky you are. I'm a year post op and still have
no energy. (138 pounds lost and I still feel like I've been run over by a
truck). You guys are lucky. ;)

Congrats!! Rebe!!! Isn't wonderful to among the living?? I felt so dead
before my surgery, I could hardly play with my kids without feeling like my
chest and heart were going to explode. I'll be 10 months post op on the
30th and down 160 lbs with 35-40 to go. I work out now at Curves, and so
far, this being my first week, I've made it each day through the whole
routine and I feel great afterward! I have a bounce in my step, and I'm
always smiling. I can't say enough about WLS, and how it has given me back
my life. I hope you have many more triumphs with WLS!!

Okay, here's my experience ... a few weeks ago, I had a job interview to go
to. When I got to the building, the receptionist told me it was up the
stairs -- all five flights of them. It was an old building built in the
1700s and had no elevator. I jogged up these five flights without breaking
a sweat. I wasn't even breathing hard when I arrived at my interview.
Yipppeeeee!! Didn't get the job, but that's another story!

congratulations!!! to the "average" person they would think such
a milestone absurd, but to us WLS people you are awesome!!! I can't wait to
feel that way. I've been doing nothing but sleeping and have NO energy. 15
days post op. keep up the good work and soon you'll be running marathons!!!

Last week I found myself sitting with my legs crossed! I haven't
comfortably crossed my legs in over 5 years! And I also unpacked some more
old clothes from msy garage and THEY FIT !!!!!

Way to go, Rebe! I am finally able to cook dinner AND do all the dishes
without my back breaking. What a great feeling these milestones are!
Congrats to you.
