My friend who had the stroke a few years ago has finally lost enough weight that she can walk up and down the stairs of her house at one step per stair, though she still has to hold onto the banister. But she can now exercise properly (she was still exercising with short walks around her block and swimming, but found longer walks very painful), and can get into her clothes from two decades ago. It has taken a long time to get even this far due to a lot of work and family stress, and she still has about 70-80 pounds to go but it's progress. She's very encouraged, and already feeling better, and I'm so happy (and relieved) for her. Her doctor is a good guy, with a sensible approach to dietary modification (like keeping steamed carrots or sweet potato to hand on her desk if she wants to stress-eat instead of biscuits, etc).


Once she achieves her target weight, I have promised to keep her company while she goes to the ateliers of all the local fashion designers she knows, and has a celebratory new-clothes orgy. After which she intends to give away or re-size all her old clothes, as incentive to maintain her weight thereafter.
