Wow moments keep coming

So my best wow moment was on Friday when I got on the scale ( I only weight myself once a week). I couldn't believe when I saw the number! It meant I was down over 100 pounds since my surgery date (113 total loss from highest weight). Can you believe it!?!? 100 pounds!! I couldn't believe it. I weighed myself three times because I thought it couldn't be right.

My most recent WOW moment happened the next day. My friend's cousin races modified midget cars and we went out to watch him. I was able to walk up to the top of the bleachers and back down without holding on to a railing, seats, another person, knees didn't hurt, and I wasn't out of breath. That seems like a small feat but when you had minor panic attacks about things like that before hand it is a milestone.

Anyway, thought I would share!

Congrats on your loss so far!!! You are doing great!

And what a great NSV with the bleacher walk. My husband and I are huge NASCAR fans and we use to always get seats closer to the bottom becuase I dreaded the climbing. I cant wait until next summer when we can go and sit up higher!!
