WOW Moment!
My company Christmas party was yesterday, so I went to find some new pants on Friday night at Avenue. I found some black dress pants in a 20 and a 22, so I go to try them on, and they are BOTH too big, so I had to go with an 18!!! I haven't fit into a size 18 in at least 10 years. I was so happy that I treated myself to a new shirt and earrings to go with the pants! Yay me!
Also, the party was great. It was at a very swanky Italian place, and it was a 4-course meal (not so good for the WLS patient....). Anyway, they spaced it out very well, and I was able to eat a little bit from each course and not stuff myself, including the most heavenly filet mignon I've ever had. I also had a few bites of Tiramisu- it was very good and didn't make me sick. I'm not worried, because since my surgery, I just don't crave sweets like I used to (I remember the days when I could down a pint of Haagen-Daas and still want more.....ugh).
Awesome!!! Congratulations on your new size (temporary lol) and the fun time at the party. You go girl!!
I also remember the Haagen Daas days, or Ben & Jerry's pints. I would start eating it intending to only have a little, then it was "ok I'll just eat half" but I was NEVER able to stop, until the whole pint was gone. Thank God I can't do that anymore!
Keep up the good work and be sure to share your next WOW with us!!
