A small wow!
I went into the library today.(owed 2.50) It has been several months since I have seen the lady since, I get most of my audiobooks from the online digital library now. I told her I owed money ...normally she would have just popped my account up. She asked my name so I just said Trexler.....she says first name?
I say Myrtis. She looked at me funny as said...Are you Myrtis? I laughed like a loon and said yes. She flipped out. While we were disussing my weight loss another lady comes up and tells me she had the surgery in May and has lost 86lbs. We talked and I gave her my number. I have a new weight loss sister. And a happy moment. I just love wow moments. It is finally my turn to get some of the wonderful wow feelings
Thanks for listening

Woo hoo, I love WOW moments! That's a cool one and you got a new Sister in the process!!!! I'm sure there are lots of WOW moments to come! I used to write them down so when I got feeling a bit down or hadn't heard any positive reinforcement then I'd look back at my book and be happy again! Anyway, have a great week!!!

Myrtis, That is one of the coolest wow moments EVER! And that just goes to show, if we feel we can be open and honest about our WLS, we will meet people we never would have otherwise. I'm so glad you have a new sis! 
I'm also loving Cheryl's idea of writing all of our wow moments down. Been trying to come up with scrapbook ideas and this is definitely being added to the list. Speaking of which...that calls for another post. Look forward to hearing Mare's wow moment too!
