Well yesterday I was at shoppers getting my pass port photo. When I ran into an old friend for like 6- 5 years ago. Well I caught him looking at me, turns out we both lostweight! Anways he sends me a message and said, you look so different. I turned around and said Older huh? He said definitly not older, younger... and went on to say that I have lost lots of weight! That was the first person who noticed the weight loss besides my family! I felt so good! I loved it! I am so happy! That to me classifies at my first wow moment!

Congrats... i know how good it feels to have someone other then family give you ocmpliments.. because in our minds it kinda feels like they have to say we are doing well or lookin good.. but when someone else says it.. we believe it more.. start your list of wow's....

That's great!

Whenever I go out with friends, my husband asks if they noticed my weight loss and, cynic that I am, I always say, "Yeah but they already know about my surgery." I'm waiting for that first comment from someone who doesn't know.

Congrats! It's a great feeling isn't it? You are doing so amazing, and love the newer avatar (If I hadn't commented on it before). Lovely.

It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle
when the sun comes up you'd better be running.
