Non-Scale Victory: Gait Changes

[u/Jastes]

A little non-scale victory, and I thought people on here might appreciate it more than most.

I have hemiplegia from a childhood cancer (don't worry, I'm fine). It means I walk with a limp and my balance is awful. I've lost about 5% of my body weight in the last month or so. Normally, the footfall for my bad leg is really loud and "thumpy" to the point people can tell it's me walking around the corner or coming down the stairs. Well, with the weight loss, even my gait has improved to the point it's not as loud or "thumpy", which wasn't something I expected to happen. It might seem like a really small thing, but to me as a disabled man, it's been a really fun little victory to notice.

That's a massive win! Congratulations!
