Default WOW moment for freebird, omg she's still pre-op

first i will apologize in case i've posted this elsewhere, if i did i couldn't find it but i was sure i had dropped a post on this, and it's just something i can't not tell y'all.

I guess my healthy eating and excercise is starting to pay off. for years i have never tried to put seatbelts on because i haven't found any that fit. so the other day i had taken roo to a store for something he wanted to get and i was sitting in the drivers seat waiting for him, playing around with the dials and stuff in the truck and who knows why i decided to try the seatbelt on. I think i was just wondering how much weight i would have to lose to be able to wear it. and it fit! I almost went hysterical, "OMG IT FITS, I CAN'T BELIEVE IT OH HOW COOL" , i'm sure anyone who heard me thought i was going out of my mind. i was laughing and crying all at the same time. so now every time i get in the truck instead of putting the key right in the ignition, i put my seatbelt on and if i have a passenger i make him (Roo) or her put theirs on . if i get this excited about a few lbs now can you imagine how i will be after the surgery?

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Hey Freebird,
I hadn't worn my seat belt for a while because it was so tight that I couldn't move. This weekend after going through a radar trap I decided to put it on and it now fits with room to spare!!!! I know how you feel. GREAT!!!
It's the little things in life.
Kat
