My First Style Show-WOW!!!
I haven't been around much the last few days. We have been practicing and getting ready for the annual style show that our weight loss program produces. It is for all the medical personnel as well as current and future patients. Actually anyone could attend.
There was a nice table set up with nibbles for the bariatric crowd. Some really interesting spreads as well as the usual fruits and veggies. How cool to go to something that had WLS friendly food that looked and tasted amazing.
The Dr's had time to give an overview of the program and then there were about 12 who gave testimonies. Half way thru- there was a salsa dancing demonstration for all who attended the free classes. I tried it one night. It is fantastic exercise!
Then the second half went thru. I was 3rd from the last. I wore my cowboy hat, low cut jeans, black bling belt, black gator boots, black v neck tee and a black jacket. After my testimony, I walked out on the stage to a song-in my case "These boots are made for walking" and strut our stuff. Behind us on a big screen is our before picture taken at the clinic as well as how much we have lost.
It was a really big moment for me and it was nice to have my hubby, step-daughter, and Mom & Dad there to see how far I have come.
It was nice the see Cheri-I wish she had paticipated. Those of us who did had soooo much fun. Anyway, it was a wonderful night and just wanted to share with all of you.
