Post Your WOW Moments!!!
I bought my first pair of real Levi's! Before surgery, I was wearing size 36 jeans that were very snug. At lunch today, I bought a pair of stretch Levi's in a size 24 off a clearance rack for $13. I stood in the dressing room for about five minutes just looking at my butt in these Levi's. Funny, exciting, rewarding - what a great journey it's been, and I'm sure it's not over yet!

I had my best one so far! I know I'm not the only one that spent way too much of my life waiting for and wanting approval from other people, and I've really "overcome" that, but I still want my husbands, you know? He's been semi-supportive of this whole process- he supported me because he knew I was going to do it with or without it, but he really didnt want me to do it. Anyway, he just came to me and said that he thought I looked really good yesterday for church and that he's really proud of me! I dont care what size I wear or how much/little I weigh, I'm just happy that he's proud of me!!!

Hi Gina you are right every day is a WOW day for me also. But this past week I had 2. The first was my husband picked me up, you know like you see in the movies. It was in front of my twin girls, I laughed so hard and I was taken so by surprise. I can honestly say I never can remember being picked up, EVER. My second WOW was I bought a new bra. Size 36C. I cried and cried, you see the first bra I was bought was when I was 10 or 11. It was a 36C. It was bigger than my mom wore, I cried and Cried but this past week was a totally different cry. Today I played at the park with my girls and I actually played on the equipment. I slid down all the slides. It felt great.
Everyone keep up the great hard work. Its really neat knowing tomorrow will be something new.
