OK, I had to share...

I posted this on another board, but I had to share this with all of you too. I went to a birthday party for my pastor last night and had a ball. First of all, I was able to fit into an outfit that was in my closet. Second, I wore high heels. And third, I dance straight through three songs in my heels . Oh my, I couldn't believe that I would be able to do that so soon. What a difference losing 35 pounds makes. I had so much fun and was so proud. I haven't dance in years. Thank God for WLS, because I'm truly getting my life back. OK, I'm off to go Christmas shopping, but I just had share my night with you. Have a great day!!!! Diva in Training

Congratulations Diva!! I too feel much better since my surgery although I have lost about half the weight you have lost so far. I notice I can go up a flight of stairs without breathing hard and feeling like I am going to pass out!!

Thanks Divine Lady!!! I used to hate stairs, but now I can go up and down without any problems. I wish you the best as you continue this journey.

Congratulations girl!!!! Many more Blessings to ya! ~Tonya

Thanks Tonya!! How are you doing since the surgery?

Hey Diva, I know the feeling!!!! I went to a Christmas party last night in chunky heel boots and a sleek black skirt and I danced too, AND sang KAREOKE....however you spell that...................hahaha people kept telling me how great I look!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes Diva In Training, Amen to WLS, Thankyou Jesus for allowing me this journey and for those who are traveling with me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bethany

Oh wow, you danced and sung karaoke. You are really doing it big. LOL If Friday night is a glimpse of whats to come, then I'm very excited. I'm getting my life back.

Congratulations Diva , that's a great WOW moment already!

you LITTLE Diva, you! Way to go. With so much to look forward to, there's no stopping you. My joy is a little more quiet: I just took a 4 mile walk in the woods. And it was not an all day ordeal like a death march, it was a peaceful, spiritual thing that only took a little over an hour. Dancing or hiking, or shopping, or tending our children: life is easier and much more fun now! Finding what you love to do is the secret to permanent weight loss I think... hmmm.....I may have to drag my husband out for dancing this weekend...

Alright now girl, save some of the dancing for feb. I'm starting to finally wear some things in my closet also. Keep up the good work. Reneka
