A top 5 WOW Moment

I remember reading a post last year where someone noticed that their thighs no longer rubbed together, GUESS WHO CAN CLAIM THAT NOW????!!!!!!  I realized it this weekend. No longer am I having to invest in a new cannister of Gold Bond powder and I've yet to be chaffed this summer. Now that might not seem like a major deal - but to me it's unbelievable. I was always the chubby kid who waddled because I was chaffed in the summer time. 

Does anybody else know what I'm talking about??? Oh and it's time to buy a new bathing suit (again) apparently the butt is sagging on the one that I have and the girls that I hang out with on the weekend have suggested I stuff a sock in parts of it until I can buy a new one. (Who knew a bathing suit got loose in the nether regions?)

Oh Happy Day!!

Congrats!! You're doing good.
I can relate. I have scares on the inside of my legs where my legs would rub together so bad, that I would get sores, and then they would inevetably got infected so I ended up with terrible scares.

I, too, have been there and I noticed not too long ago that mine no longer sweat or hurt this summer.  They still touch...not sure if I'll ever get to point that I can see daylight between them but my shorts aren't riding up between my legs when I walk. 

Along the same subject...I was at a fellow church members' house Saturday for a pocketbook party.  She had a plaque in her kitchen that said "I had to give up jogging.  My legs were rubbing together and creating small fires."  I laughed so hard!!!  That was really hat it felt like sometimes.  And forget wearing corduroy.  That would make it worse!!!

It so great to hear things like this. Congratulations on your bathing suit being loose in the nether regions. I would like to have anything I wear be a little loose somewhere! Maybe by next year it will be. Jackie
It is not the magnitude of our actions but the amount of love that is put into them that matters.

That is a wonderful WOW Iris!  I remember that feeling well and it's great not to be wearing out the inside thigh area of my pants now... but then I have so many more clothes now that I don't wear any one piece long enough to wear it out


I recently realized that I have not had any "heat rash" under the GIRLS this summer either like I use to have every summer.  I don't think that was a problem last summer either.  Isn't WLS Wonderful???

I'm loving life at half my former self!

I think we all know what you are talking about. I'll never forget when I was getting dressed one day and could see the light streaming between my legs. I did a double-take. I never thought it would happen to me. I'm glad it has happened to you too.

Enjoy!
