Wink My size 8 Wow moment!

I was shopping in TJMaxx for some jeans and found some in the size I wanted to BE, not the size I was wearing. Well, I found a pair of Calvin Klein jeans in a size 8, so I kind of chuckled as I took them to the dressing room. Well.......... they fit!! I wanted to bawl I was so happy! I don't care if they have some spandex in them. At 43 years old, being in a size 8 with a little spandex is a WOW! moment for me!

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.

Default Good For You Sandra!

The way I look at it is a WOW is a WOW, if you think it is. What you had is for sure though, a real WOWZER!!!!!!! I am very very happy for you Sandra. That feeling is almost overwhelming. I remember with me, the 1st WOW! As far as pant sizes go, my son, myself, and the little boy's pant sizes have become good friends. My boy's size 16 fit perfectly. Gosh, who would have ever thought I would be talking little boy's section? lol Keep up the good work there, Sandra. Doing very very very well. I am so very proud of you. mike

I'm very happy for you! wow isn't that great feeling?!

Cheers,
Hanadi
