NSV!

I have to share this NSV, because it is something small, but so wonderful to me. I have some arthritis, and for the past few years every morning started with pain. I was in so much pain I would have to go down the stairs one at a time holding on to the railing. Well, through a healthy diet and exercise I have lost 30 lbs and I don't know when it happened, but I can go down the stairs like a normal person in the morning. I don't hold on. I practically hop down the stairs! I was also starting my day with 600-800mg Ibuprofen every morning, and would take it 2-3 times throughout the day and now I rarely take it! I still have a long way to go, but I'm more motivated than ever!

Going from one step at a time to practically hopping down the stairs is No Small Victory. It is a huge one. From someone who used to go down the stairs one at a time and still occasionally does, my heartfelt BRAVOS.

All the best to you. BRAVO!
