Default A Super Duper Wow Moment!!!!
I picked up this jean skirt at the thrift store the other day (only $3.50- not the wow moment, but cool all the same!!!) I put it on today,and realized i need a belt. So I'm thinking, I know my daughters belt will be too small, but since she is the only one with a belt that would work, I will just humor myself and try it out anyhow. Oh my gosh!!!! My 12 year old daughters' (totally skinny byt the way) belt fit me. I am so syked right now, I can't express it to you all in any way other than to say it was a major WOW!!!!

Wow ! Congratulations ! I can only hope that I will fit in my 13y.o's clothes some day. She has gone from a 16 1/2 to a size 8. Guess she wants me to work a little harder to get into her clothes.

I had a WOW moment last night. I like taking a nice hot bath on my days off, so last night was the night. As I was laying there reading I thought "something is different" I looked around and found...... My whole torso was under water!!!! I'm very happy for your moment. I enjoy every single one of mine. T

WOW Melanie, that certainly is the super-ist, duper-ist moment I have heard in a long time...your skinny 12 yr old daughter's belt??? Holey moley, what size is your waist? I am so inspired...I can hardly wait to start having my own Wow moments. Congratulations and keep it up, you are doing great.

That is awesome Mel!!!!! It's the wow moments like this that we feel like we are in someone else's skin because it just don't make sense that it could possibly be OUR OWN body! Congratulations!

That is great!

One day I pulled a pair of jeans out of the laundry basket and was really upset because I couldn't pull my jeans closed. They wouldn't button! I couldn't figure out how I gained THAT much weight. I took them off nearly in tears then realized they were my 10 year old daughters jeans, hell yeah!

***going to look for a belt to try on

What a wonderful wow moment. Ohhh to fit in my 12 year old daughters clothes. All those years of buying her cute clothes would be worth it.

She did think it was pretty cool. She has been so supportive and happy of all my progress. She is great!
