my most WOW moment...

As you know...I had my surgery on 6/20/05, and have lost 114 !!! Last night (Monday), I went shopping (one of my favorite hobbies now a days). I found the most cutest pair of black leather boots (that come up to the knee), and they have a 3-4" stilleto style heel, and guess what??? THEY FIT !!!!!!!!!! Can you tell that I am excited about that?!?!?!? Before the surgery, if I ever tried on a pair of boots, I might could get my foot in them, but could never zip them up...these zipped up without any problem. I cant wait for Fall to get here...but even if it is 85 degrees, I will be wearing them on 10/18...come H _ _ _ or high water!!!! I have a date with a very special guy that day!!!! Norma 251/137/128

That is an awesome WOW moment - Hope the date goes as you wi**** to go. Rebecca

Thanks Rebecca for your thoughts...it is an awesome feeling and one day you will be there too!!!! This particular guy is one that I have been chatting with since mid-May, but have never met him...and so the next 5 weeks will be the longest weeks in history!! Norma

....just a bit of positive encouragement - My husband's uncle met a nice woman over the internet - after 6 months of chatting and phone conversation - he drove from North Carolina to Georgia to meet her....... well, they are making engagement plans..... Rebecca

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...that is so awesome...I want to do that someday....just so scared I will break my ankle...lol..... I am excited about your date too....that is awesome...I met my boyfriend online and we chatted for a month and finally met and just celebrated our 4th month dating anniversary yesterday...he is sooooooooooooooo awesome.....and we have gotten very serious so things are possible out here on the world wide web... Take care and congrats! Ann

Thanks Ann...I just keep trying to find things that I have always wanted but could never have because of my weight...cross those boots off the list... I guess with this particular guy things are always possible...but we will have to celebrate months of online chatting...he lives just south of Dallas, TX !!!! Norma

Congrats to you! I'm a bit envious though...that is one of my goals...but I still can't zip the boots up. I have lost 150+ pounds, but my calves are still pretty big. Oh well...one day. I'm happy for you. About online dating, I met Derrick (some of you know him), my husband in 1997 online! We will celebrate our 7th wedding anniversary on October 30th this year! So, it is possible to meet the man of your dreams online. I know I did. So, have fun, look sexy in those boots, and good luck to you!

Stephanie, Keep trying for those boots, and one day you will be there too !!!! He may just be the man of my dreams, but you just never know...lol Already have planned on what I will be wearing when we finally meet...and I think that I will be looking very sexy... Norma

YAY NORMA!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't even get calf boots...my big fat calves. I have my grandma's legs....I'm slim on top, huge on the bottom! YOU MUST POST PICS!!!!

Thanks Sherry...are your calves 'fat' or 'muscle'?? If fat...you can do something about that, ya know?!?!? I will definitely get him to take some new pics of me...and I will be changing my profile pic then... Norma
