Its the little things that are BIG-HUGE things!
A new list of NSV's (Non scale victories!)
> Headed to the Saturday Market today and am going to walk walk walk walk... and am thrilled I can do this!! :) :) Update on Saturday Market....
Today we went to the farmers market and Saturday market... as well as went 'window shopping' for new furniture... spent over 3 hours on my feet and feel great! I came home, went to work cleaning up the veggies we bought, started cooking green chile chicken for dinner and am now headed out back to bring in some boxes I have stored so I can sort thru them!
I could not have even come close to this 2 months ago! Every day that goes by I am more and more thankful I had this surgery... it is changing the quality of my life :) :)
> Went for a 70 min walk yesterday, some of it thru the hilly part of the neighborhood!
> Took the bus the other day to go meet up with Joy (Banshee) which was an amazing visit by the way! I walked all over, even stood on one of the bus rides, didn't sit down at the bus stops... All because I could!
> Can wear the jeans I wore to the UO Orientation 2 falls ago... At that time I had lost enough to get into them.... But only for like a week! Then could not wear them anymore cause I had gained back #'s. Now they fit even better!
> I go up stairs now much more often!
> I am just busier around the house because I can be!
....I feel like I am coming back to life! :)
