WOW! Take me out to the ballgame!

My hubbie did just that last night. His company does an annual trek over to clippers stadium for a catered picnic, and then his boss treats us all to that evenings game. Well, for the past 2 years I have avoided his company functions for the most part (and they have some really nice events including a beautiful holiday party at a country club in Hilliard), but he convinced me to go to the picnic and game with him last night. So some of his peers from his company were there and when they recognized Aaron they came over to say hello. One guy in particular (the guy who hired Aaron originally 7 yrs ago) reacted with utter shock when he saw me. It was pretty great! This was the best reaction to the changes in my appearance I have experienced so far. He actually took a few steps backwards and his mouth hung open for a few seconds when he realized who I was and said,"Whoa, you look really fantastic!!! Did you go and have a makeover or something???" to which I replied "yes, something like that" Ha ha ha. I could tell Aaron felt proud that his peer reacted that way. It made me shine on the inside to have my husband feel so proud of me. In the past I was always afraid of being an embarassment to him. This was truly my first BIG WOW moment. Just wanted to share.

Congatulations on that wow moment and heres to many more Sheri

Hiya Jamiee, Good for you!!!! I bet you felt like a million bucks!! (or maybe a billion???) Keep up the good work! Thanks for sharing!! I love hearing about all of the triumphs - it certainly is motivational, isnt it? Especially now when things seem to be slowing down, it is helpful to hear of things like this. God bless you and keep you, ~Andrea

Thats soooo great Jaimee!!! Good for you. I had a really nice thing happen too. I had one of the girls at work take a digital pic of me so I could use it on here. So I needed a recent pic for a local thing I was doing and printed out a 8 x 10 pic. When they were done with it they gave it back to me. A few weeks ago I was looking for the pic. and I asked my fiance' where it was....He had it. He folded it and put it in his wallet!!! I asked him why he had such a "big" pic. and he said it was the only recent one he had of me and he wanted to show it to everyone. I couldn't believe it. He said he showed it to some of the guys at work and they said " Man she's hot" I just laughed because I've never been called "hot". I just melted when he told me he showed my pic to everyone. Congrats on the awsome weight loss and keep up the great work!! Karry 311/177/155 goal
