That's awesome!
And as far as shaving the legs goes, well, I can't say as I've ever done that...but it definitely feels great to be able to tie my shoes...and not HAVE to wear slip ins just so I wouldn't have to bend down!
Great moment! Thanks for sharing!

You are so freaking funny Mike...
Congrats on the WOW - I've found all sorts of bones - it is crazy. I had to go get my Grey's anatomy off the shelf to figure out what some of them are!

Enjoy your bones & Thank you for the very nice, unexpected PM this afternoon. I was just thinking to myself what a bummer we didn't get to meet while I was in SF.

I know, it sucks that we were so close and couldn't make it work...but it's not like you were there on a pleasure cruise! They were working you hard. Maybe next time we can plan ahead better? Well, we can try!
And I agree about the body changing so drastically. I mean, here I am at a weight of 221, and yet I'm fitting into size 16? I'm pretty sure I weighed 175 at around age 21 and was wearing 16's.  I found that whole thread "What size are you?" really interesting to see all the conflicting weights, heights, and sizes. But hey, I certainly don't mind looking thinner than I thought I would at this weight!

Mike, you dog! LOL! That's so funny. Sorry, it was more rated "PG" than "R". And hey, some guys shave their legs...if they're competitve swimmers, or sometimes cyclists, right? Ever felt like joining a swim team?  But yes, mobility improved all around just makes me sad about what my life was like for so long and I let it happen -- but no longer!!

Beth! Your new picture --  I love it. Look how far you've come, you amazing lady.
And thanks! Actually, I seem to be like Mike in that I am losing my weight from the head down. My cheekbones were the first to peek out, followed quickly by collarbones, and that happened pretty quickly, which made me happy. But I still had a huge belly...so that's why it made me so happy to find evidence that the belly is shrinking.
