For the first time in years, I finally felt light enough on my feet to run around with my nephews in the park without feeling embarrassed or out of breath. So last weekend, I joined them for a friendly game of soccer. Honestly, almost every daily movement feels easier now — tying my shoes, climbing stairs, even sitting cross-legged on the floor. But chasing that ball for an hour? That nearly did me in.
I didn’t realize how much muscle strength I’d lost along with the fat. My legs felt wobbly, my balance was off, and I ended up more exhausted than I ever did when I was heavier. I know it’s a good challenge to rebuild strength, but I can’t be the only one who faced this hidden surprise.
Has anyone else found that certain things actually get harder in weird ways after big weight loss?
