I can't believe it! I have a wow moment already, and I haven't even had surgery yet!

I just had to share it with everyone! This evening, the girls and I, along with my best friend Stephanie, went to the Pumpkin Festival here in French Lick. I had to run home after work to pick Jimmy up to take him to work, so I changed shirts, and just had my black work pants on. We were standing in line to get on a ride, and Stephanie just happened to glance over at me and exclaimed...."Good Greif! I just realized how much weight you have already lost!!!!"

Talk about making me smile! She has really been supportive of me with the weight loss, so that has helped my morale at work! Anyway, she said that because of our uniforms, she hadn't really been able to notice, because they are ugly, and oversized as it is. My shirt that I had on, magically has started HANGING on me! I just feel so much better after I was told that! It really made my work week end on an up note!

At Goal! 165 pounds gone forever! Thank you Lord!

You only have one life to live, but if lived right, it's the only one you need!

Hey LaChelle, that is a great WOW moment!!

Doesn't moments like that really do something to not only your day but kind of change your life and how you look at things? I have never thought of things as WOW moments but I will from now on, that's for sure! Thanks all for bringing that to my attention!

It's not what you gather, but what you scatter
that tells what kind of life you have lived.
