I'm going to call this a WOW WEEK!!!

So this is the first week that I have actually noticed my weight loss..but ironically..so has everyone else. I was quite the WLS lightweight to begin with, being that i had a 36 BMI, but because of my diabetes..yada yada yada haha Soo...here is what this past one week has consisted of... -I had my A1C results yesterday..and as i posted yesterday they were perfectly normal -Last night I decided I would go shopping through some sales because nothing fits. So...something brought me to the gap..i must have been crazy. I was a little upset to learn that they only carry up to size 14 in stores here, so I was standing there thinking...do i try to act like a fool and jam my butt into a 14? I was feeling adventerous so I did..I grabbed a pair of their curvy flare jeans and on they go...rather easily too. so I think 'well..they wont button'...and they did..with room to spare. I was in shock..A pair of GAP jeans...size 14 are really too big. So i checked the tag just to make sure they were really 14s...so i got a little more adventerous...I trotted out of the dressing room holding my jeans up..and slowly walked over to the same stack I picked them up from and put my hand on a size 12...nooo..they wont fit..NO WAY would they..why humiliate myself?! But they i decided that the worst that could happen would be what happens every time i go jean shopping. So I grabbed those 12s and brought them into the dressing room. On they go..up..up...ok..button..ok..zip...holy bananas!! The size 12s fit! no wonder my 16s were so baggy!!! I called my mom from the dressing room almost in tears! I was so excited!!! I also bought a sweater from american eagle a couple weeks ago that was a medium..and that fit now too. So today i have been trotting around in my size 12s and my medium sweater...oh what an awesome feeling!!! -After I went shopping, i got inspired to go to the gym on my way home..so I grabbed my gym clothes out of my back seat and headed in. I had a pair of swishy pants that i had bought from old navy, that were too small..but i figured..they cant be too bad by now. So..in the dressing room, i put them on...TOO BIG!!! I had to roll them twice to keep them up. Then on my way to work out i passed a full length mirror...and glanced...and stopped. This was the very first moment i said to myself 'wow..i look good' There were no rolls popping out..my tank top was fairly fitted, but looked good...wow..i really just looked..right. -The other day at work one of the guys walked up to me and said "wow..you look really good, jill..i cant beleive how skinny you are getting...i mean..you look REALLY good" -Then today I went to visit the boyfriend. I haven't seen him for almost 2 weeks because he was away visiting family. As soon as I saw him I got a "wow..you look REALLY REALLY good"..it's nice, though because i have known him for a long time and he has seen me at my best..and my...not so good times. -Other than that, I have just had all sorts of people noticing this week..I'm still having a hard time with compliments...it's amazing how they are honest compliments but I still feel like they are BS..you know?

That is great Jill!!! Good for you!
