I've lost roughly 95 lbs in the last year, and I recently rediscovered my happy place. I love sitting sideways in my big armchair. Cross one leg under my other thigh, and swing the other leg over the arm of the chair. A year ago, I was too heavy to do this comfortably, it would have felt the same as tying my shoes used to. And there wouldn't have been any room for my 1yo daughter to climb up into my lap and relax between my legs. Now this position is a huge part of our day. She sits between my legs or lays on my tummy, or stretches out across me and plays with my keys, which I hang from a belt loop.
It's so weird to remember that I used to sit like this all the time when I was a teenager, in dozens of different chairs. And somewhere along the line, I got too big and I quit doing it. It was never a conscious thing, and I never consciously looked forward to being able to do it again, but as I sit here watching my kid play with her little school bus toy, it dawned on me. Just thought I'd share.
