I had a couple of WOW moments recently....

#1: Last Thursday I went to a Pampered Chef party and the week before I ran into the hostess at the mall and stopped her to RSVP and see if I could bring the kids. She looked at me like I was dumb or like I was bothering her, but I just wrote it off and didn't think twice about it after I walked away. Well, at the party on Thursday she apologized and said the reason she was looking at me like that was because she didn't recognize me at first and didn't know why I was stopping her and telling her I was coming to her party. HEE HEE!!! #2: On Friday I had a girls night. A few of my friends hadn't seen me since the end of December and a few others since mid-Feb. They were all blown away by the new me. We went to dinner and I had 1/2 a chicken BBQ wrap. YUMMY. After dinner and chatting we went shopping. For the first time since I can remember I didn't even walk through the women's section. I went to misses and bought 2 pr of carpi's and two tops. Size 16 pants and XL tops. Felt great to be able to shop in the same section as the rest of my friends and even steal things out of one of my friends dressing rooms so I could try them on, too. #3: On Monday when I got on the Scale I was 185!!! That is what I believe I weighted when I graduated from high school. On Tuesday I was 184 and am still sitting there today. But that makes me LESS than what I weighed in H.S. AND only 2 pounds from losing 100 lbs which is my goal for my 6 mos checkup next Thursday. So I have a week to lose 2 pounds. I know I can do it!!!! Increasing tha****er and protein. Wish me luck. I'm off to exercise, shower, pick up the kids and head out to Fashion Bug for their "Buy One Get One For $1" sale!!! I got 2 tops at regular price and need to get them adjusted and might buy some size 14 shorts for next month. Hope I can find something I like. Will be good therapy!!! Hugs to everyone. Hope everyone is also having lots of WOW moments. Happy Easter, Tabby

Congats Tabby. That is so awsome. Keep it up. I know you can get to that goal. Take Care, Amy

Hi Tabby, Long time no chat.. I am so happy for you. 2 lbs shy of 100?? that is amazing!!! I am not even close to that.. I dont remember what I was in high school.. I am so glad you got to go out with your friends. Your Husband is great to make sure you have Tabby time!! I bet it makes a huge difference!! I hope you found what you were looking for at Fashion bug!! I wonder if we have those kind of sales too? The closest one is like a 20 min drive with no traffic. Here in Cali there is ALWAYS traffic.. Even on the weekends.. I should check it out though.. Anyways. Thanks for the post and letting us know the great news!! Give the kids love and Happy Easter too!!! Luvs and Hugs! Tiff

Congrats on the WOWs Tabby!! Good luck on those last two pounds. I KNOW you can do it!!!!! Susan

Congrats on your WOW moments! That is awesome!! You are doing just great! Keep up the great work! Melissa

TABBY, "WOW" JUST DOESN'T CUT IT FOR THE MOMENTS YOU MENTIONED. THEY'RE STUPENDOUS. WHAT A GREAT ACHEIVEMENT YOU'RE ABOUT TO MAKE. 2# SHORT OF 100# LOST. HOW COOL IS THAT? UNBELIEVEABLE. I'VE BEEN STUCK AT THE SAME WEIGHT FOR THE LAST TWO WEEKS. MAKES ME CRAZY. WHAT KIND OF EXERCISE DO YOU DO? I KNOW YOU DO THE NIGHT SHIFT, DO YOU DO 12hrs? IT'S SO HARD TRYING TO GET IN EXERCISE WHEN WORKING 7a - 7p. BY THE TIME I GET HOME IT'S 8pm, JUMP IN THE SHOWER AND I'M READY TO DROP INTO BED. I DO WALK 2.5 MILES EVERY DAY I'M OFF BUT THAT'S ONLY 3 DAYS A WEEK. ANY SUGGESTIONS ARE GREATLY APPRECIATED. KEEP UP THE WONDERFUL WORK YOU'RE DOING. DONNA, SFY
