|  First Real Wow Moment! I actually had what you could call a real WOW! moment today. YIPPEE! I AM ON CLOUD NINE. I was shopping with the wife today, and I spied a friend of mine who used to be a coworker of mine. She was coming up the isle and I opened up my jacket as to display my new self. ONLY TO HAVE HER LOOK AND WALK RIGHT BY ME. LOL LOL LOL Of course, I quickly said, "DIANE!!!!!!!!!, DO YOU ALWAYS BYPASS FRIENDS OF YOURS?" I laughed. Then, she said, "OMG! OMG! OMG!, I didn't even recognize you. I thought to myself, what in the world is that weirdo trying to advertise by opening up his jacket." We both thought we would die laughing. LITERALLY.  You have to know this woman to know actually how crazy she actually is. Of course then, she made me take a twirl, and said,"OMG! you do actually have a butt. lol lol lol IT SURE MADE MY DAY BOY, BY HER TELLING ME THAT, AND OF COURSE, NOT KNOWING WHO I WAS. THE BIG SQUEEZE FROM HER AND TELLING ME I WAS A HOTTIE NOW DIDN'T HURT EITHER. Yes, it is bragging to a certain point, but I call it like the biggest WOW! moment ever. She hadn't seen me since my surgery. Hearing things like that sure make everything with the weightloss worthwhile. I have to go outside now, and yell I am so ecstatic and just yell. I guess I finally know what a WOW! moment actually is. Take care everyone, and VERY HAPPY HOLIDAYS. mike |

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.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | If you've got it flaunt it, baby! Mike I'm thrilled for you!! You SHOULD brag! You should boast! You should fill yourself up with all of those wonderful feelings and compliments to get you through the hard times. My therapist and I have talked about this at length and he said that when all is said and done I should be outright COCKY, LOL. Bask in all of your WOW moment, baby! I can't wait for mine! Hell, I can't wait to tie my own shoes.

| Super Moderator  | Congratulations on your WOW moment!! May you have many many more to come!! Okay, I'm moving this thread to Coffee Talk, for some reason, it's in the Site Suggestions forum. But come to think of it, may be we should create a WOW corner, so we can collect all the WOW threads there. Hmmmmm...some food for thought.....
