Wow! Go me!

OK...since surgery I have had a few mini wow moments but last weekend I had two that really stuck with me and for the first time I really really saw that I am a loser. Saturday morning I needed to run out but couldn't find a pair of sweats or jeans that fit....at the top of my closet I keep the jeans I haven't been able to fit into yet. I pulled out a pair of 20's AND THEY FIT!!!!! They aren't stretch jeans AND THEY FIT!!!! I know jeans can be funny with the cut but this particular pair fit! I was sooooo happy. For the first time in a really long time I felt good about me. I felt pretty. Second wow moment....my boss gave me two tickets to Sunday's Redskins game and I decided to go and take my brother. Awesome seats on the 10 yard line 12 rows from the field....couldn't pass them up! Anywho....even though those stadium seats are soooooooo small and sooooooooo close together I FIT!!!! It wasn't roomy(what stadium seat is unless you are five years old?LOL) but I FIT!!!! I wasn't having to sit forward in my seat for fear of crowding my brother. I was able to sit the whole game.....before I would have passed up those tickets for fear of not being able to sit in the seat. I am gaining my life back and it's a wonderful feeling! OK, thanks for listening....just wanted to share Hope everyone is having a happy day! ~Heather

Aww, Heather, that's so great! You ARE pretty, and I'm glad you saw that!!! It's funny, I've not been to a pro game of any type in so many years - like you, I always passed up any tickets, even if they were free. That's wonderful that you could sit and be comfortable. Here's hoping for many more WOW moments for you!!! Tia

Heather You are gorgeous .. inside AND out!!!! It's wonderful that you are seeing it too. Oh, I so know the seating thing ... Even though we were going to NASCAR races I was always sooo miserable in those seats, now not only can I sit comfortably in my seat BUT I can also cross my legs if I want ... Looking forward to seeing you on the 17th. Hugs, Mo

Awwww thanks to you both! That means alot.....it's nice that you can relate to how I feel. That you have both been there in the ups and downs. Looking forward to seeing you both on the 17th!!! Should be a fun day!!! ~Heather

Oh Heather, I am so happy for you! That is awesome. You are going to have many more wow moments. It's such a cool feeling to fit in a seat. I just love that. My daughter's school auditorium has these tiny seats. Well, I have always had to scootch my way into them but now I can just plop right in and I am getting room to wiggle in. So cool! I also put on a regular size 14 dress pants yesterday and they weren't tight at all. They fit really nice. Sorry to steal your thread to share a couple of my own wow moments. Hope you don't mind. Congratulations! You brought tears to my eyes, I am so happy for you. I can feel your excitement. Hugs, Robin

Hey Robin, I'm so excited for you in a size 14! That's a wow moment if I ever heard one!!! No way you stole my thread LOL it's all about sharing and caring and just to let you know my eyes welled up reading your post. I can just imagine how I'll feel when I'm fitting into a 14. Besides I can't wait until I can just plop into any seat!!! Have a great day and looking forward to seeing you on the 17th! ~Heather

It is so exciting to fit into a size you couldn't before. I also love fitting in seats. It makes mife so much more comfortable. Way to go. Aime
