Ok so like 4 or 5 years ago I bought some leather boots that came right below the knee. I ordered them online and when they came in the mail I tried them and they didn't fit. I could get my foot in with the zipper all the way down to the base of the boot, but couldn't move it an inch up after I got my foot in. I was really bummed but I kept them and I was determined that one day they would fit! I have tried them on 3 or 4 times after I had WLS and every time I was able to get them up a little farther but have never been able to get it more than a quarter of the way up. Well today I tried again and they FIT! OMG major wow moment for me. I know it may seem weird but I have always thought I had huge legs and this is a real visual for me that I am losing weight EVERYWHERE! Whoo hoo I am so happy!

Ok you asked for a pic of me in the boots so here it is (updated 9-13-06)

Congrats Holly. Hearing all these stories about the WOW moments and shoes is making me realize how fat my feet have gotten over these pass 2 months. I am hoping once my bundle of joy is born I will have a WOW moment with getting my toes in some pretty shoes. Holly now you know you have to take pictures of such a WOW moment.
