Everyone always posts about WOW moments and I kept wondering when mine would arrive.... well it arrived.

I went to a Worcester Sharks hockey game on Friday night and I fit in my seat. When I say that I mean I had room to spare! I was comfortable for the entire game!

I have also come to the realization that I'm turning 34 on Saturday and I can't remember the last time I celebrated my birthday weighing under 200 pounds!! It does feel good.

-I will admit it was mentally hard to watch all the Halloween candy this past weekend. Candy was a big thing for me, especially Reeses!! But I got through it.  :)

Hope you all have WOW moments soon too!

that is such a wow moment!  awesome robyn!
one of my biggest unwows was a few years ago when i went to a billy joel concert with my husband...and we didn't fit in the seats.  my husband couldn't sit at all and the armrest dug into my side so bad.  i was going to just suck it up (even tho i was 8 months pregnant) but my husband was really uncomfortable - so we swallowed our pride...all the way to customer service and ended up in the the handicapped section...talk about embarrassing!   i can't wait to not have to flinch at us all going places!  so i very much understand your wow! 

happy early birthday!!  i too am 34 - this will be your best year yet!!  (it is our last year we are closer to 30 then 40!  :)

all the candy is brutal! my kids are 2, 3 and 6 and the ammount of candy we have here is horrifying...i remember last year i couldn't wait till they went to bed to eat 90% of it.  this year just jot home from the hospital the day before so there was just no way, hopefully by next halloween i will have a grip!

again, happy early birthday and cheers to many more wow moments to come!!

Congrats!

Wait til you get on an airplane!!!  That's a fun WOW!!!

Congrats on the candy too!  I'm lucky in that I live alone.  No one brought candy in, I didn't hand any out... minimal threat level!
