Wow Moments all over the place!

Just one day into our vacation and I am seeing WOW moments everywhere.

The first one was when I was boarding the first flight and the seatbelt strap was 2 feet longer than I needed.  Last trip I had to do the walk of shame squeezing down the isle to my seat bumping my huge body on both sides of the seats... and asking for the extension belt.  How humiliating that was.  WOW

Then upon arriving late in Dallas, we had to run to the next flight that was already boarding for Miami.  I ran and kept up with my son who is 12 and an athlete, while toting my big purse and a carry on suitcase!  Last trip I was winded walking at a slow pace from one gate to the next.... good thing we had an hour and a half layover back then.  I had to sit down along the way.  Not any more!!!  WOW

This one is kinda funny.... Since I hate using the restroom on the planes I hold it wayyy too long and I went running (again) to the airport restroom after our flight landed in Miami.  I rushed in the stall and yanked my jeans down to potty realizing I didnt even unzip or unsnap them!  LOL  They are 10's!!!   wooohoooo!!  Last trip I could only use the handicap stalls because I was too wide for the "normal" ones.  Now, I dont even worry or think about it!!!  Good thing too... it could have been a real issue last night.  LOL  WOW

I am so grateful to our Awesome God for allowing me to have this surgery and to carry me safely thru this amazing journey.  I am ever so grateful for having a healthy life and getting to experience it with my family.  I am blessed indeed and that is my biggest WOW ever!

huge hugz,

Tracy

Yep, and you were able to wipe your butt in the public restroom... something I was never able to do!! Congrats!! and WOW!!

Linda Kay

 Awesome point Linda Kay!!!  I completely forgot about that!  

Tracy,

Thank you for sharing those wow moments. I think they help us all to realize and thank God for the gift He gave us through this surgery. I have had so many wow moments and NEVER intend to take them for granted. You have achieved so much and have been so supportive and encouraging to all of us walking this journey as well. Its nice to see so many blessings going on in your life. 

For my wow moment for the week, I purchased a dress for graduation that was in the misses section! I cried when that dress dropped over my shoulders, down past my hips and fit! I fell to my knees and thanked God. Last year when i spoke at Ivy Tech's graduation banquet I wore a 5x this year I wear an XL in misses!

To those of you who are considering this surgery, GO FOR IT! You will be blessed and surprised at all you can do!

Hugs to all!

 Props to you Tracy!  I bet that made you feel so good.  I can't wait to fly so I can see how I fit in the seats now.  I hated flying before and I used to fly all of the time.  Have a great vacation.

Wohoo Tracy!!  Next time you have to  do it on the plane!  I think that was the best thing in the whole world I had the option to use it there because I could actually GET INTO IT!  even if you don't go... go into just to show yourself you can get your little heiny into it! LOL

Huggs,
Frankie

Good for you Tracy!  Enjoy that tiny butt!    Hope you are having a wonderful time on vacation. 
  Hey Duane, you and Alisea could probably BOTH fit into one of those airplane seat now.

OK on days that i question wether i'm doing the right thing or not.....these posts help me stay focused. Thank you so much for posting this! I pray my day will come very soon!
