Talking Wow Moment of the Day

My wow moment today was a state trooper came to the door, he was doing an investigation on a neighbor or something and said "IS THERE AN ADULT HOME?" I said I am an adult! haha! My dad said I was losing all this weight and look like a little girl.

What was your wow moment today?

Gosh,
I've had so many wow moments lately, but one in particular that became very obvious today was my ability to tie my tennis shoes, Usually I will just tie a knot in the laces and try to slide them on. WOW

I stopped at Eddie Bauer on the way to some meetings and thought I'd buy a reward for hitting one of my bench marks. I found cute little orange and red plaid shorts.......and wore an 8!? Now, I know I am normally a 12 and occasionally a 10, but it's still a little cool to see that on the tag.......it reminds me that I will be a "true" 8 someday.

Great wow moments from both of you! I'll add another... I am no longer invisible. You know when you walk by someone and they look right through you...well they see me and SMILE. This is scary and fun at the same time!

Great WOWs ladies! I went to work today to pick up my direct deposit and everyone was saying I looked great. I've lost 15 lbs so far but it's good to know someone notices! (Not really a wow, but a definite smile moment. lol)
