Talking What NEW things have you done since losing weight?

I'm so interested to see what new roads everyone has taken since feeling good about themselves!

I wore heels tonight! I'm 5'9 and thank God that I have a super tall husband. It was SO FUN, I must do it again!!

tomorrow I'm going blonde for the first time ever

spill the beans, what have you done lately that you've always wanted to do??

While I haven't lost a substantial amount of weight yet - I plan on going warm blonde, or fire engine red! getting a pedicure hopefully.

Kids are fussing, gotta go.

This may be a little more info than you wanted to know, but.... Because I was so overweight before, I could never actually stay sitting on the toilet to wipe. That was interesting when I had an IV in my right arm!
Now, I've lost so many inches in my belly and thigh area that I can wipe sitting down!

I can drive my mom's car without having to put the seat back and the steering wheel up.

I can walk from my office to my car without getting winded (that is, of course, when my car is working )

I don't exceed the max weight limit on my camp chairs, but it's too cold and frozen to use them anyway. next step is losing more by next summer so that I can buy the regular size ones instead of the deluxe size ones.

I put the arms back on my office chair at work and i don't come home bruised at the end of the night.

I ran yesterday without dying! It wasn't super far because I had the wrong shoes on (I wasn't running to run, I was running back to my apartment after puching my car to the service co.), but I was only panting a little and it went away quick, too.

This is a strange one... The way that Ross on Friends told everyone "f*** you" was by clapping his forearms together in front of his chest... I could never do it because my arms were too fat and my chest was too big... I just realized on Sunday at my grandma's that I can do it now! Also, I have a tattoo on my inner right forearm and the tattoo artist wanted me to put my forearms together in front of me so he could center it, but I couldn't get my forearms together, but now I can do that too!

I can say that I'm not in the 300's anymore!

I can fit into Old Navy's plus-size and not just Fashion Bug or Avenue's extended sizes.

No offense to my sister, but I can finally say.."Sorry, but it's to big on me...do you want it?" She's ok with it now, but it bugged her in the beginning.

YAY!

There is a very fine line between "brave" and "stupid". *giggles*
