Wow and Double WOW!!

Well all this week I have been ******g and moaning that I have not lost as much as I thought I should have, blah blah blah! This morning I wake up and decide to wear a pair of Denim Gouchos that my sis had given me. I tried them on last Friday, they were TOO small (size 18). Well, WOW, this morning they fit. a little snug, but they fit. From a 22 to a 18. Ok so that is my double WOW. Now for the wow. Applebees has the most wonderful food. I ordered the crab cakes off the apetizer menu, and they are wonderful. 2 pan siered(sp) crabcakes, smaller than the palm of my hand. I comfortably ate about 1/2 of one. My husband finished the rest. He also got the teriakiy(sp) steak and shrimp skewers, I tasted one of the shrimp and it was WONDERFUL. I usually do not like seafood unless it is fried, DEEP FRIED. But this stuff was good. I have never been fond of crab but like I said this stuff was GOOD. Moist, soft and tastey. For those of you on the soft stage this is wonderful, even if you do not generally care for seafood, UNLESS you are allergic. So that is my WOW, what's yours?

Congrats to you!! I'm looking forward to the day when my jeans start falling off. Hasn't happened yet. People at work are starting to tell me I look like I've lost weight...and several people say my face is getting really "thin". Mine???? No way! I can't tell...but I'm glad others can. My scrubs are starting to look really big on me...and I got to wear some scrub pants that have never fit me before--and a scrub top that I haven't worn in several years. That'll be my wow moment for now......until a bigger one comes along! Good job...keep up the good work! =) Courtney

I understand your double "wow." I felt my clothes getting big and bought one pair of jeans one size smaller. Then another two sizes smaller. Then today I got the next size down. Blouses too. Bras are getting big. Shoes are getting big. I went from a size 30 blouse and pants to a size 22 stretch denim capris and regular 24 jeans and a 22/24 blouse. It's great going to find clothes now in regular stores even though it is in the plus section. It's a great feeling and those moments will continue for you! Its weird how we KNOW we're losing, think its not fast enough but then we try on clothes and see it is happening! And we just had surgery in May!!!!

woo hoo - proof positive that even if the scale is not moving, your body IS!!!! Congrats!
