    Run for 30-40 minutes. 30 seconds used to be a challenge!

    Do half a pull up. Still gotta jump to get half-way up, but then I can lift myself up the rest of the way. Just hanging from the bar used to be too painful.

    Love this thread!!

    *I can do splits on both sides. I'm still working on those middle splits though.
    *Climbing stairs is still tiring but MUCH easier without excess weight to carry up.
    *I can cross my legs without trying and without discomfort.

    I used to put out my arms like a little kid and have my hubby pull me up off our (low) couch lol. Or I would have to lean over and push myself up with my arms. Now I can get up with just the strength of my legs/abs. Seems crazy to think I used to be like that.

    I can run. I can walk quickly up hills and not only not hate it, but not notice a change in my breathing. Stairs are a breeze.

    I can climb up in my nephew's playhouse and go down the slide. I have energy to keep up with my own boys. Pretty great!

    Run for 3 minutes. I started at 30 seconds, so 3 minutes feels like forever, but I can do it.

    I can also button my favorite pair of jeans without using the rubber band trick I learned while pregnant.

    I can play with my kids in the those indoor playgrounds often found in science center/museums without worrying about getting stuck.
