Oh the things our bodies can do!

So I was talking to a friend on the phone today, someone I miss terribly and who I don't see near enough, and we were talking about a time before my surgery when we went to the gym together.  She was doing these weird things on the stability ball, walking out with her hands, pulling the ball up with her legs, and then walking back.  I told her she was crazy.  She tried to tell me that I could do it too, and I didn't believe her.  I didn't even try.  How about the first team work out of this competition we did the walk-it-out as I'm calling it now.  I've even gotten to the point of starting to pull the ball up towards me with my legs.  I actually taught another friend to do it tonight. 

It's amazing what our bodies are capable of when we don't quit and when we never say "never."  I may still have some residual fear of certain activities since my surgery, but I will never again doubt what my body can and can't do.  :)
