Talking My first wow moment

I was complimenting BOOTS (Edie) on her WOW moment because she looks awesome and doesn't/didn't realize it, and I shared something with her that she thought I should post.
I haven't had surgery yet, but as you all know I've been on this medifast shake for a month now and I have lost at least 30 lbs. I wear hospital scrubs at work and always wore the biggest size. The other day the pants I grabbed were on the wrong shelf and were a smaller size. When I went to put them on I realized my mistake and figured they would NEVER fit - but they DID!!! I now wear the smaller size tops and bottoms!
Also - my boobs now stick out farther than my stomach. FINALLY!!!

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 a great wow moment for you. That had to be exciting for you to get into the smaller size. You are doing a wonderful job losing before surgery. This will really help you once you have the surgery. Your surgery will be alot safer to when you lose weight before surgery. I lost 36 pounds before surgery and that made my surgery much safer the doctor told me.
Keep up the great work.
