Goal reached and WOW moment

I am almost 2 years out and when I had to get a new drivers liscense in September 05......I had the weight changed to read 175......This was my own personal goal... not sure for awhile I would ever reach it but July 23 I did and the next day I weighed 174.... I am so thankful to have made it..... Now the WOW moment.... I got into a pair of real blue jeans.....I have not been in jeans in over 35 yrs.... I went to my daughthers house ... told her I was gonna show her something she had never seen... pulled up my shirt and showed her .... She says "OMG< you have on real jeans with pockets, zipper and everything"...My husband was so sweet..... this last saturday, he bought me new jeans and a top....size 12....He even encouraged me to try on several pair... told me which ones he liked on me...It was a great feeling knowing he was excited about my new life and health as well as I was.... It was a a great day........ thanks for sharing my good moments.... event though I have not been posting or reading here for sometime.... but I am back again ..... Sharon D

Congrats on reaching your goal! The feeling of getting into jeans again is definately cool, it's all i wear now. As for the drivers lisence, that is awesome. This last april i got pulled over and almost got a ticket cause the officer refused to believe it was me in the picture of my license. He gave me a warning with ten days to get a new one. In michigan if you lose or gain more then 50 pounds you must get a new lisence. I still kept my old one for memories. Hugs Linda

Congratulations. Welcome back. Happy to hear from you. And happy future anniversary. Hope to keep on hearing from you and take care. P.S. Hope to see a picture of you in jeans on your profile.

Sharon: Great news on reaching your goal!!! What did you do to get down to the final few pounds??? Are you exercising? Congratulations about the new blue jeans too! Isn't it great?? ~Laura
