Unexpected WOW

I haven't ever posted a WOW before but I'm just so excited about this one and I never would have thought my weight would change my shoes!

First I came across a NICE pair of dress heels that I could never fit into before.....never worn. Not only do they fit now, but they're a little too big.

AND

right now I'm wearing calf-high black boots with heels that have been sitting in a box in my closet so long, I forgot they were even there. They never fit my foot or around my calf. Now they fit perfectly. There's even some room around the calf!

I wonder what other treasures I'll find.

Hi Janeene and YAY for YOU,

I remember the boots thing too. But another wow happened just a few months ago, something I never even considered. I am tall and was always told I was big-boned. I could never slip bracelets over my hands. I always thought I had HUGE hands. But I was wasting time in the hair salon last month, and they have lots of bracelets. I picked one up and tried to put it on...and it went on easily. I thought it must be a fluke, so I tried on others and they all fit. So now, I have something new to start collecting...bracelets.

I hope there are many more unexpected wows that come your way. Congratulations on all your successes!

Didn't you notice all the shoes people were giving away at the coffee?? Exactly why, I went from a 9-91/2 wide to a 8 or 7 1/2 regular. Same with my ring size, every ring is too big, but I won't be giving any of those away at the coffee!!! Buying boots is a pleasure, I even have a pair of Uggs now, and what MoMo said about them is so true, they are comfortable.

Congrats on your wow moments and I for one am going to miss you and Harley. I hope everything goes great for the both of you.

Hugs and love, Diane
