Finally...a WOW moment!!!!

Actually I had two WOW moments!! First, when packing for vacation I just packed my usual old clothes. When I would put on an outfit to go out, it would hang on me. My capri pants all rested on my hips (still have a big butt), or they would have fallen off!! One day when I was walking through the Cowboy museum I kept feeling the crotch of my pants way down between my legs. (It was a GOOD feeling, even though I kept having to pull them back up!!). I have been reading all your encouraging posts about what size everyone is now wearing and I was beginning to wonder if I would ever see a size difference in the way my clothes fit, now I FINALLY see it!! Second, a cold front blew through OKC and I didn't pack for it, so had to go to the nearest store (to our hotel) which happened to be western store. I could wear an XL jacket (couldn't button the bottom botton though)!!! I don't know if anyone here has ever shopped in a western store, but their sizing always runs small and they NEVER carry plus size clothing, so I was worried. I also bought a L long-sleeved T-shirt to wear under everything, of course it fit like a second skin, but I wouldn't even have been able to get it over my shoulders before WLS. I was wearing either a 3X or 4X before WLS. Sorry this is so long, but I had to give you ALL the details!!

Congrats on all of your wonderful wow moments. Def. a few to be proud of!

Thanks, Megan!! You are always so very encouraging!!

Oh Gail! that is so awesome! It amazes me to see clothing on a hanger and in my mind I'm thinking "there is NO way it will fit" ... and then when I try it on and it fits, it's the most amazing feeling in the world! It sounds like you had some wonderful WOW moments!!! Deanna

Thank you Deanna!! I can always count on my friends here for encouragement!!! I was really beginning to get worried about my clothes sizing...you see, I'm still wearing all the same clothes as before WLS. They're a whole lot looser, but still...I was getting concerned!!

They are great wow moments - I hoep you are pleaseed with yourself. You must be like the cats who's got the cream

Thanks, Ruth I will admit I strutted around my hotel room with my skin-tight size Large T-shirt on. I'm sure glad my husband was the only one who saw me. Of course, being the diplomat he said he sure didn't want me to leave the room like that because he'd probably get in a fight!
