The wedding went great, and so many "WOW" moments

I know many of you wanted me to let you know how it went at my cousins wedding...........

No relatives have seen me since last summer, my all time high.........

To start off, I walked into the church, my Aunt (the Mother of the groom) looks at me, looks at me again and says, "Kelly?" I said, Yes..........She said, "OMG you look wonderful, where is the rest of you?"

Next as I'm going to communion and walking back to my pew in the church I made eye contact with a few of my relatives, their mouths dropped and I just gave them a Thumbs up.

Then at the reception one person after another came up to me............Most of the comments were, "Where is the other half of you?  How did you do it?  You look so happy...... My funny Aunt walks up to me and says, "You skinny *****"  And an Uncle said he wished in his younger years there would of been pretty women like me.........It just went on & on......These relatives have always seen me fat........They were all very happy for me.......Even knowing I had surgery...My cousin (the Groom) walked up to my hubby and said, "Wow, Kelly really looks amazing."

I can't express how overwhelmed I was........I'm tearing up as I write this.......I've been so emotional today........I really felt like Cinderella.........I did wear the white dress that so many of you liked......For once since surgery I felt pretty..........Okay, Now I'm totally crying...
Good tears..........

Oh, and I also had a Wow moment today.......I was 149 on Monday, today I was 146.....Whoohoo...

Thank You all for your support, love, and encouragement......I couldn't have done it without you..........

Love to you all........Kelly
