wow moment

It has been awhile since I have had a wow moment but I had a goodie today.  I went out and bought a coulple pairs of jeans.  I am wearing a pair right now.  It is a size 10.  I was wearing a size 26 in December of 08.  I am so happy I could burst.  I was wearing a size 10 pair of shorts this past weekend but I thought that was a just a lucky pair of shorts.  I didn't know I could actually wear a 10.  Well, I now have a lucky pair of jeans to go with those lucky shorts.  Can't wait to see even smaller sizes.  yippee!

wow!  i bet that is an awesome feeling!  congrats!

Hi Sandy,

Congratulations!!! I remember when I was filling out my paperwork for Duke and they asked what would be my 'dream' size and I said it would be a 10... I remember the elation when I got into those pants. Like you, I dismissed it at first, but when you are able to wear different manufacturers and styles in the same size, it's for real!

Enjoy you continued success!

Sandy...That's wonderful. Can't wait to see you in them.

Sandy,

I am jealous!  But, so happy for you!  That size 10 shows how you are making all the right choices.  You make me see the value of all those trips to the gym!  I wish you the best.

Hugs,
Lisa

SWEEETT!

Wow at size 10....congratulations. Not sure I'll ever be in a 10 but who knows.  Bet your having fun shopping.

Wow that's great Sandy!

Thanks everyone!  I was getting a bit depressed because the weight is coming off so slowly it seems.  But then I did some measurements and saw I was losing inches.  So, I went shopping.  I am making a trip to PA to visit friends and family over the holiday weekend.  I have not seen most of these people since the weight loss.  It should be just what I need.  I am now looking in the mirrow and I see loose skin and soft flab.  I get sort of edgy and want this faster than it is happening.  So, when I got into the size 10 it helped put it in perspective again.  So will seeing everyones expressions when they see me.  I am just about 1/2 of my old self.
