Donna, you are doing GREAT! I can't wait until I am your size! I wonder if I will even know myself then. I weighed 127 lbs when I got married, but I was just 17 yrs old though, so that was a while ago. My wedding dress was a size 8 with the waist taken up. Geeezz I looked good in that bikini back then! I lived in Florida and stayed on the beach. I thought I was fat then too.

Rebeca, you are funny. LOL That gives me incentive to get down into my honey's jeans (don't mean that the way it sounds! LOL). He wears size 32 and has the cutest rearend of anybody I've ever seen. Okay, maybe this should be in the "sex" thread considering what I'm thinking about now. YIKES! hehehe But I will be totally thrilled when I can get one leg in his jeans. You should be proud.

(Sorry Ryndi, didn't mean to make you think of sex again) ROFL

My weight on my drivers license is no longer a lie!!!
This is a first, since I always lied about my weight on official documents

!!!

A few others, since it seems like they are happening almost every day:
My towel too, fits around me. I can really share the excitement with you there Whitney

I jumped down two sizes since the last time I shopped (2 wks ago)
I am not horrified by my appearance in the mirror
I danced with Elvis (ok and impersonator) and I look good in the pictures.

This was a good thread. Fun to get these things out there

Ok-here's mine-it just happened two days ago. I was sitting at the dining room table running on at the mouth with hubby when I noticed he had tears in his eyes. I asked what was wrong=and he said, "you look like you did when we got married"-beautiful. My goodness-that was 26 years-and lots of pounds ago. I gained so much weight since we got married that I wonder why he stuck it out-but he never said a negative thing-from 110 to 282-without so much as a word-but lose a few and he blubbers like a baby. Go figure

I'm only one month out, but have worked out every day which has me in much better shape than before.

Today I was holding my almost 3 year old daughter's hand as we crossed the parking lot and she started to run, pulling me and smiling into my face. She was so cute, I just started running too and her eyes almost popped out of her head and we ran and laughed all the way to the car. I almost cried thinking, I could have missed that!

one of my wow moments was when I tried on the wedding dress I have had for like 2 years waiting to get married (sweetie has been over seas over a year with 3 more months to go) and it was TOO BIG!!! I was happy and sad at the same time because I missed the point it fit like a glove and not it's too big :-( I waited too long to get married...JK! Anyhow, I gues I could Ebay it and buy a new svelte one??? :-)

Another wow moment is whenever I wear a new dress and everyone at work keeps telling me I get skinnier every day and how good i look :-)

Another one is my kids can put their arms ALL the way around me and one can even pick me up!!

Oh ok one more, I put on my 9year old daughters shirt and it fit, snuggly but still fit!!

I got asked if I wanted to get naked with some guy while out dancing last night...um no. haha I saw a girl I went to high school with and she said she wasn't sure it was me. She said I looked beautiful.

Trina...your sex talk does nothing for me, I am sad to say.

If I was in a relationship I would be worried, but I guess it is good I don't want it as I have no one to give it, hehe. Well besides the guy wanting to get naked with me at the bar!

A few months ago my daughter looked at me and said "let's try both sitting in the chair together. You are getting skinny mom". Enough said................ Oh, i forgot to tell you that my daughter is 6.

I'm normal. I'm not overweight or obese or anything. I'm just normal. I still have about 23 pounds to go before I'm "medically ideal", but only 4 to go for my goal, 9 for my doctors. How's that for a 9 months out wow moment?

My wow moment was making it out of surgery. I thank God for making it through.

While in the hospital a nurse told me that there was no way I had gastric bypass. She said "you are so tiny and I could not imagine you overweight" That made me feel good. Of course I had sheets on and she couldn't see all of the skin hanging off of me.
