I had to share this WOW moment.. cuz it's just blowing my mind! I work at a telemarketing company as a 'Team Leader' (like an assistant supervisor). The project I run is for the AMA, selling CPT and ICD-9 coding books. Well every now and then the client (AMA) runs incentives for us to boost our sales. About a year ago or so I won a pair of Dickie's scrubs that say AMA on the chest pocket. They only came up to a size XL... so I ordered the XL (assuming I'd just give em to my mom.. cause they WOULD NOT fit me back then)! They are really nice (as Dickie's are) and a pretty royal purple color. WELL.. my mom gave them back to me shortly after I had my surgery (she never wore em... tags still on!). Well.. in about July or so.. I tried them on... well.. tried to GET them on..the shirt was pretty tight.. and the pants I couldn't pull on over my hips. I tried them on today.. and I'M DROWNING IN THEM! They are actually slightly too BIG! That's ok tho- I'm going to wear them still! On Wed's we have 'scrub day'..and wear scrubs to work. I'm sorry I didn't try em on this morning to wear them today... I'll have to wait till next Wed.... but I couldn't beleive how much I've shrunk! This is for sure a big WOW moment for me! Mind blowing!!

What a great WOW moment! But girl - here's another one! I had to look at your ticker 3 times before I could believe what it said. You've lost 153 pounds since May of last year? Dear heavens - that's 8 months! OMG! What a success story YOU are! And you're beautiful to boot - love your pic! Keep up the great work - you my dear are an inspiration!

That's a WAY cool wow!!! Isn't it wild how we see clothes and think - "Yeah, right... like THAT'S gonna fit on THIS!"... and then it does??? I'm so excited for you to wear 'em to work! I wish I could wear my new jammie pants to work!!!
