Talking My first WOW moment!!!

Ok so the night before surgery I had my husband take several pictures (that I will never show anyone!!!) But I had these really tight jeans, you know the kind where you lay down to struggle to zip them up? Well I put them on the other day and they fit, not tight anymore, actually a little loose. I was so excited, just wanted to share.

Hugs,
Jolie

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.

That is such a great feeling! I go shopping with my 11 year old daughter and whenever i get into the next size jeans i grab her and start jumping up and down and she just stares at me, she thinks i am going nuts but i am just so happy i could scream when that happens! Good for you...enjoy every smaller size you make....

Good work Jolie! You will be amazed at your clothes and how big they get. I'm having a hard time parting with some of my way too big stuff, but I'm loving fitting into the stuff I couldn't wear anymore. Today my husband got out my rain coat (it was too small for me when I bought it and I never even wore it and now IT FITS! Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the support. Maybe one day when I am brave enough I will post the pics, but I will forwarn you that they aren't pretty at all!!!

have yoy ever noticed that we are our own worst critic? it would be great to see before and after pics, helps keep us pr-ops inspired. I bet even though you don't like your before pics you are still beautiful in them.
keep us updated

I love those wow moments and I'm still having them after almost a year.

They excite me just as much now if not more than before.
