This may not be much to some of you....

I looked down while sitting at my desk and realized I had crossed my legs automatically!! WOOHOO!!!
I haven't been able to do that in over 25 years since gaining over 80 lbs! And I did it without really thinking about it!!!

This is the motivation I needed. I had just figured out I had lost 52 lbs in 1 year but was a little discouraged because I barely went down 2 sizes.

I had noticed the workout tapes I used to do last year were suddenly alot easier. Now I know it was the difference less weight makes.

Oh what a great story. You have all right to feel good about yourself and your accomplishment. Keep crossing and enjoy it.

I know that same feeling. It happened to me once and I was so excited (others just didn't understand). Unfortunately I gained the weight back. So Here I Am.....waiting for that wonderful feeling once again!!

Go you! Keep up the good work. Small changes add up to BIG gains in the end!

Hey, congratulations! Suddenly NOT being able to cross my legs so easily was one of the reasons I finally realized I needed to make a change in my life. I was starting to have to heft one leg over the other with my hands and pull it into place... which is so embarrassing! :embarassed: I'm looking forward to when I can cross them without the top foot sticking way out.... that's my next leg crossing milestone!

I'm not that far yet, but I'm please I can wash my feet in the bathtub without having to try and contort a body to get down to the feet..LOL..now it's easy and I'm amazed.
