We were at an Irish Feis.  A friend of mine was competing.  The room we were in had a counter along one wall.  I was feeling tired so I boosted myself up on the counter.  It was such a wow moment for me because I would never have been able to do that pre-op!  Of course my friends didn't understand lol.

Clueless about weight loss and weight loss surgery of any kind.

Had so many I can't name just one so here's a few: walking my first 5k,having my sister not recognize me and buying my first pair of size 0 jeans and having them fit! Feeling fit is most important and knowing that I can do anything I set my mind to!

Thanks for your great WOWs you shared. 

This is a WOW that is so inspiring:  "Feeling fit is most important and knowing that I can do anything I set my mind to!"

I was at Macys and grabbed a pair of size 36 shorts just to laugh at myself try to stuff them on.  Well imagine my surprise when they actually fit!  LOL!!!!  Yup, I bought them!

No stuffing into the size 36 shorts for you - YEA they fit and YEA you bought them.  We bet those are your favorite pair of shorts right now!!

I've had so many over the past three years, but still, the one that stands out as my very favorite "wow" or NSV is the day I woke up with a collarbone!!!!
