getting your mobility back is a great motivator

when i started getting my socks on was like preparing to scale everest, hyperventilating so that i could hold my breath for long enough and lunging to try and force myself over

so i can totally relate, well done

Congrats!! That is a great milestone! I remember as I was gaining the weight realizing it was hard to paint my toes. It was such an awful feeling. Can't wait to do it without being in pain!!

CONGRATS TO YOU!
