3 WOW moments today!!!

Oh honey, you brought tears to my eyes. I remember how I felt the first time I put on those red jeans and they fit. I was about as far post op as you are. Woo Hoo on facing forward in those classroom desks AND crossing your legs in it! When that scale monster finally gives it up and moves...I think you are going to see quite a dramatic drop. I'm so proud of you! Susan

Yes I had a wow moment with blue jeans this weekend. I found a great pair of 12s at the Goodwill... and washed them all up... so I wore them on Saturday evening. I could've cried cause it sunk in... OMG I AM WEARING A SIZE 12 IN JEANS! Not just slacks cause they are made big, BUT JEANS! Before surgery I was almost in a 24 blue jeans and they always hurt my back so I wasn't really fond of wearing blue jeans...

That is an awesome story; it gives me some hope as well!! I am four weeks out and I have not been able to wear a regular pair of jeans in such a long time because of the shape and size of my body, so I cannot wait until the day that I can do the same thing. Sitting in a school desk is also something I would like to be able to do one day, I am always embarrassed when my child has a school function in his classroom, because I know I will not fit into the desks and I am so afraid of embarrassing him. I cannot wait until the day that I can sit down and not have to worry if there is not enough room. Congratulations on your milestones!!! That is so !!! Shelia
