My first WOW moment!!

I'm 2 weeks out and (according to my scale) I've down 22 lbs. KEWL! I had the first of what I hope are many WOW moments. It may seem like a small one but at this point ANY victory is still a victory!! I know I've lost weight, but the other day I was thinking I can't really feel it too much in my clothes or see it in the mirror. So my first WOW moment today came totally by surprise! This afternoon, I took my daughter to the orthodontist's office and they have a strict policy about cell phones in their office. But wouldn't you know it, while we were waiting, I got a VERRRRY important call (one I'd been waiting on all day). So I went out into the open area from my Dr.'s office to take the call but there was no place to sit. Without thinking, I found a quiet corner and sat down on the ground with my legs folded (as my daughter calls it) PRETZEL LEG style!! I was so engrossed in my conversation that it wasn't until I was halfway through that I looked down at my legs and noticed that I was sitting in a position I probably haven't been able to do in a very long time!! I was amazed!! Then, to add icing to the cake, when I got home later, I sat down on my couch to read the mail and (once again, without thinking) I CROSSED MY LEGS COMFORTABLY!! I remember a time when I was able to cross my legs comfortably and I remember (all too painfully) the day when I noticed that I had gained so much weight that I was no longer able to do that. WAHOOO!!!

That is a great wow. Congrats. A.

What a great Wow moment. Thanks for sharing. There will be many more to come and 22 pounds in 2 weeks that is awsome. keep up the great work Angela

Angela - No victory is a SMALL victory when it comes to weight loss and being able to do things you hadn't been able to do!!!! Take them and run with them!!!! YAY for you!!!! I suggest you start trying on your clothes weekly - you'll be amazed at how quickly they don't fit because they're too big!!!! Good job! Tia
