Default WOW moment kinda long

Well i have been messeing, around with clothes,,,,,,I put Wesleys comfy paints on yesterday, and had room he just looked at me, and smiled..........I grabed my 26/28 jeans i had saved to just remind me.......Well i put them on and i have lost a nother person........OMGosh.......

I went and tried on some 16s and they fit kinda tight, but fit...(Wes said they looked good to get them but we all know whats on his mind.LOL) ...I dont like tight fit clothes, so i'm going to buy some 18's, if i can find a 17 i would love that........

Winter clothes are going on cheep sales soon so i will stock up on some small sizes, and summer clothes are coming out (at least here they are.) and i'm looking, but not buying yet, because i dont know what size i will be......


WOW 2: Wesleys boss offered me a Job, i will go to work as soon as i make sure that insurance will pay for the skin to be removed.....I have been having alot of foot pain from my left foot, (my bad foot) so i have to see my foot dr ( I seen him while shopping at costco over the weekend and he said he noticed i was limping, to make a appt. I told him i will because it hurts so bad.LOL)

So i will have my foot looked at and get everything, going with my bluber removed, (May i want to have it removed.) and then i will go to work for the first time in my life.........And tell SSI to kiss my BUTT........


WOW: 3 I can now eat not much pain at all, i can eat ground beef, NO STEAK, chicken, some pork, seafood of corse, and not get sick, I can drink milk about 4oz with out getting REAL SICK So i guess i was a colic baby LOL Thats what Wesley says anyway.......LOL
I'm learning my pouch, its weard.......But when i'm full i stop or i get sick and it hurts so bad...........And to say i havent in like 2 months..........So guess i'm getting better.........Now that i'm over my sickness, (but i do have shingles again.) i'm going to make a appt to the dr, and drive 2hrs to see him.......I dont know about the scope, but i'll go see him........
I wish i could get the dr here to take over everything, he sent me to UVA because, he had to stop doing the surgerys here......But now they are doing them here, so i'll call him first and ask him if he will take over everything.........


Thats the end of my WOW's LOL for now.............

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.

Becca, Hanadi, to both of you, congratulations on your WOWs.
For a woman, clothes are soooo much a point of vanity in a way, getting those good looking clothes are such a nice way of pampering yourselves.

Becca, you should go for the 16s even if you feel it's still tight on you, it's going to be loose on you in no time at all, and you may find the 18s falling off you even before you're through the check out line.

Default woo hoo Becca!

THE WOW MOMENT BY FAR ARE THE BEST BECCA. The whole person thing is actually unreal at first. Sorry about your foot thing though. Is it from being heavy for years? JUST WONDERING. The pants size would be perfect for me Becca. I know though, that you have a goal in mind and are going to keep it. I admire any person for that. I just like my gals with a little meat on there bones. Good idea with the small clothes that are going on sale soon. I do that every year. Except this year its not going to be sweat pants. JEANS ALL THE WAY!!!!!!!!!!!! LMAO
HEY CHUP, WOO HOO FOR YOU TO. YOU ARE AMAZING!

CAN I SAY WOW!!!
sounds like all things are comeing together for you.
Hope the job works out for you.
as far as the clothes i agree with doc to get the tight 16's cause
in one month they wont be tight they will be just right and the next month after that they will be swimming on you just how it goes.
SORRY to hear about the shingles returning but glad food
is going down better for you.
keep up the great work
you sound so happy.
