41 Pounds - I can go to the movies (comfortably) again!

EnchantedEvening

This is for all the pear-shaped women. :flowerforyou:

41 pounds lost, and I can finally put the armrests down at the movie theatre! A few months ago, the armrests rested on top of my thighs, and the edges of the seat cut into the middle of my thighs. It was so uncomfortable, and I hated taking up 2-3 seats. Last night, I was able to put the armrests down and put my drink in the cup holder instead of setting it on the floor (where I had to huff and puff to reach it).

I can also wear my favorite dress boots again (I couldn't even get them halfway up my feet a few months ago). I felt like a normal woman, enjoying a date with her boyfriend, going to the movies in a nice outfit instead of baggy clothes and flip-flops.

I was so excited when we got home last night that I took some pictures. I'm also able to wear my favorite top again. You can see a close-up of it in my profile picture.







I've lost five inches off each thigh, so I can finally stand with my legs together instead of waddling around. :drinker:

Thanks for sharing your story. It is stories like this that help keep me going as well. I was able to eat out at a restaurant after church today and not have to worry about asking for a table because I can now sit comfortably in a booth. Keep up the good work!

Thank you for sharing and way to go!! I know what it's like not to fit. I used to always steer clear of the booths at restaurants because one time I couldn't squeeze all of me in...embarrassing to say the least . Keep up the great work!!!
