I got picked up! Stupid Girly Post

This might sound stupid but I had to share....

My best friend is a guy and he used to weigh around 180, while I used to weigh around 232. Over time my weight has gotten lower (186) and his has gone up due to working out (he is 210 now). I remember late this summer when we had figured out our weights had passed. Anyhow...New Years Eve we had a party and I ended up falling asleep on the couch before midnight. He picked me up and carried me into the bedroom without a problem. I couldnt believe it. Cant say I recall ever having anyone be able to pick me up ever! This is going on my list of things that keep me motivated!!

I loved your post, Gawdess. It really is the little things like being picked up that can make us feel like we've come so far, accomplished so much and are now living a sweeter life. I can relate - happy to hear that you had a nice moment like that.

Yup, it's a nice feeling, isn't it? That's one of my criticals -- the guy has to be able to carry me around LOL. Really helps also that I keep my weight down too for that to happen

I always tell ym husband maybe he can when I get to my goal too... It's always made me feel so sad that I can pick him up but he cant pick me up! lol well..not that I would let him try since it would kill him. I still weight 26 pounds more than my husband....getting there though... maybe in a few years I can get carried over the threshold too
