A couple of WOW moments!

Hi guys. I miss you all lots. Been quite busy with everything, so I only get on from time to time. Just had to come share a couple of wow moments with you all! :)

I went to a wedding yesterday, but when getting ready for it, realized I had nothing "wedding worthy" to wear. SO...I ran to Cato really quick and grabbed a few shirts to try on. The one that was the cutest and fit the best was a 14/16!!! OMG! Never in my wildest dreams could I imagine what it felt like to put on a 14/16 that fit me!!! It didn't match my pants though, so I had to give it up. The shirt I ended up getting didn't come in a 14/16, or I would have actually had the honor of purchasing it rather than the 18/20. But...just the fact I could get it on and that it looked good was AMAZING! :)

My second WOW...Pretty amazing. Since I was 17 years old, I've been a size or 2 bigger than my mom. I haven't been able to wear her clothes for over 10 years. About 2 months ago, I went "shopping" in my mom's closet because all my clothes were too big. I got a lot of things and still couldn't fit all of her clothes and decided I'd go "shopping" in her closet at a later date. Well...that date was last night, and amazingly...all of her clothes are too big for me. It was incredible. It made me really sad on one hand because I could see her unhappiness in herself. I think it just made her look at herself and her eating habits really closely. I am praying she'll take my weightloss and let it encourage her, but I'm afraid she isn't. SO...just pray for my momma, if you would. :) I am still pretty dang excited about this whole journey!!! It's incredible. :)

Love you guys!

Liz, that is great news.  I'm glad you are doing so well. 

I am so excited for you!! You are doing great! Any WOW moment is great, but to have two is even better. More than anything....reading about your wow moments allows me to know that I too will have moments that are overwhelmingly WOW moments in this journey!!
Congratulations!   Sher

Way to go,  Liz! You're stronger than I am. I would've bought the top and new pants, but that's just me!!

Yay for your WOW moments, Liz!  I agree with Charlotte ~ I would have bought the 14/16 shirt and new pants to match it too lol.  I don't have good willpower on shopping.  You're doing great, girl!  *hugs*

Congrats for two big wows!  That is cool!

How is school?  Does your little guy like his new house?  I don't think I ever heard, what is your major?

School is FABULOUS!!! I am just absolutely loving it!!! My son does like the new place. It is much much smaller than our house in Holdenville, but I love it because there's not so much to keep up with!!! My major is communications with a minor in graphic print media. I LOVE the idea of marketing and advertising. :)

Love ya!!!

Liz

Congratulations Liz.

Congrats Liz.  This is all amazing.  Speaking from a Mom's point of view though I am SURE your Mom is so proud of you.  I would much rather face the demons than have my kids go through it.  You've paved the road for Mom and actions speak louder than words.  You go girl!!

OMG I HAVE BEEN THINKING ABOUT YOU AND WONDERING HOW YOU HAVE BEEN DOING. WELL I DIDN'T NEED TO WORRY DID I BECAUSE YOU ARE DOING GREAT!! CONGRATS ON EVERYTHING GOING WELL FOR YOU!! KEEP IN TOUCH!
