I am, for lack of a better term, a picker. As in "American Pickers." I go out to estate sales on weekends to find things to sell on eBay. I've been doing this for almost 12 years, after years of teaching high school. I've slowly put on about 70 pounds in those 12 years.

Today, I was at a sale in the garage, looking through a box of stuff. Instead of bending over or getting in the floor, I usually will pick the box up and prop it against my tummy while I'm looking. (If it's not too heavy.) Today, the box kept sliding down. I couldn't keep it in place, and that's when I realized I'd been propping it on a shelf of fat that is no longer there.

It's the little things. lol

    Thanks so much! Yes, I can bend over, and I can SQUAT!! Without a whole lot of creaking and knee pain. I'm 55 and have worn my knees out. I was a three to five mile a day walker until ten years ago.
