Mini WOW for almost 1 year
First I'd like to say Congratulations to all of us that have made it this far in our Journey. We did it!!!! Yay!!! 
So I lost my drivers license (AND my credit cards but that's a different story). I made an appointment at the DMV to get a duplicate. Of course I didn't have any picture identification on me because it was lost so the clerk looks up my picture from my old Drivers License 100+ pounds ago. The look on her face was priceless. She kept looking at the picture on her screen then squinting and looking at me... I told her that yes, that was me two years ago. Sometimes I forget what I used to look like. In my mind's eye I still look the same.
Needless to say, she asked me if I wanted a new picture. I told her no and she wanted to know why because I look so much better now... I told her that I wanted to remember what I looked like before and that was one of the rare pictures of me before surgery. I'm just weird like that I guess. 
Just thought I'd share since I'm kinda reflecting on this past year... Anybody else have any WOW moments you'd care to share?

I'm starting to finally look like the woman on my driver's licence again! I remember pulling it out once when I first got it, and someone asking who the hot chick was, and I was like, duh, ME! But as I packed on the pounds it didn't look like me anymore, and I'd have to explain to the people who asked for ID that's what I looked like 'before baby', which I thought was funny at the time, now, not so much. Anyway, hopefully I can be a hot chick again one day even AFTER BABY.
[PS when I lost mine last year and had to get a new one the lady wanted me to get a new pic, and I was 300 pounds so I was like NOOOOOOOO. I had to insist that the picture was still under the two year limit, sad, so sad, but I begged and she let me keep the pic].
