Default wows and the day is not over yet!!!

First WOW I lost another pound, so far 129 pounds lost forever. Then second, my hubby & I were at hubbys, Aunts funeral. There were so many people that have not seen me since I started losing weight in June of last year. But I did tell some in my Christmas card to them that I had gastric bypass. So some knew but had no idea how much I lost and some did not know I had gastric bypass. You should have seen the stares I got and many of them giving me the look from the bottom of feet to the top of my head. It was like they had never saw me before and so many gave me compliments on how good I look and some asked questions about my journey. And some just gave me the look and did not mention anything about my weight loss but you could see that they knew I lost alot of weight by them looking me up and down. It was an amazing day and it is not over yet. Tonight their is a Firemans Supper and there are going to be people who have not seen me either since my journey. I expect the same response there as was at the funeral today. It is like WOWS all day!!!!! I love to see peoples reaction when they see me with all the weight I lost.
I feel so wonderful and just soooooo Happpppy with myself at the progress that I have made.

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.

It sure has been one wonderful day for me. I felt so great at the supper and some did not recognize me. It was all over so fast tonight. They served so much food, roast beef, creamed potatoes, baked beans, vegs that was over the top of the roast beef, sweetcorn,buns, marinated onions, pickles and so many different kinds of bars. I mean they piled the food on the plates. I only took some roastbeef, 2 T. creamed potaotes, veg. that were on top of the roast and marinated onions and one pickle. Well all I ate was 3/4 of the roastbeef and one Tablespoon of the potatoes and one tablespoon of the veg. and one tablespoon of the onions and a little bit of the pickle and then I was full. But it sure was fun tonight.
