A couple NSV's just this week!
I work at an elementary school in an after school program. So during recess this week I was able to do the monkey bars with the kids, jump rope, do the hula hoop and I even fit down the slide. I have been having a great time with the students cause I can join them in all their activities.
Another NSV I had was that I walked into a store and ran into an old friend. She was working so I said hi. She said hi back and asked if she could help me. I answered back, in Spanish, Girl, "don't you recognize me?" she looked at me confused and said, "no, I'm sorry." I said "its me, Dee!" her eyes opened wide an she said, "no way!" and she threw her arms around me and gave a great big hug. We talked for a bit afterwards but it felt good to see hler and see her reaction. Lol!

Being able to fit in a slide priceless! That is so great you get to participate with the kids. I am sure they love it! How funny about your friend I am sure that made you feel good!

Congratulations!
I had a similar experience last week. I took my kids to the park and played with them vs sitting on the bench. I climbed and went down the slide, went on the swings, the merry go round and fit into everything. It made me appreciate this -100# loss so much to see all the things I was limited to before. It's amazing to have these growing experiences!
