Your BIGGEST WOW?

What's the one you remember as the biggest and the best? Mine is one I have never posted about before.  It was Winter(as usual here).  We had a down comforter on the bed.  I work nights and Dan works days.  Usually, it is his job to wake me up at 6pm.  One day he came in to wake me up and saw Spot(dog) in the bed.  He called Spot and left the room.  Then I hear him walking around the house calling my name.  I answered and he walked back into the bedroom, sat down and started laughing.  He explained I was so thin he didn't know I was in the bed!  He thought I was just the covers!

Patty- This is just too funny as just this week my DH told me he had looked over to my side of the bed and thought I had gotten up.  He didn't see me. Red

The first thing that came to my mind as being my biggest WoW moment, has to be the day I reached the Centruy Club.  To this day, I still think about how happy I was and how I danced with my dog and kept repeating over and over......."One Hundred Pounds"!!!

Oh boy that's a tough question, I have had so many wonderful wows that I don't know where to begin!   I had a really nice wow yesterday.  DF and I went for a lovely four-mile hike through a forested dune area here.  Up and down huge downs, trudging through sand and such, all the way to Lake Michigan.  As I was walking, I tried to make a comparison to DF how it felt to be walking these dunes with 120 less pounds.  I told him, "You know all those times you go to Lowes to pick up building supplies, and you have to push one of those giant carts filled with drywall and bags of cement and stuff, up and down all the aisles?  That's how it feels to be 120 pounds overweight."   I can't believe how much less effort it takes to move through space now!  I feel almost like I previously had this giant fence around me that is no longer there.   I feel almost floaty and weightless.   Make any sense?   Buying a pair of jeans in a size four was a pretty darn good wow too.

Patty...I hadn't seen this when I replied to Red. That is one of the coolest things. When we were kids, my friends were like that. Who knew that something would come along to give us the chance to experience it as well?

Ok I'll bite big WOW'****ting the century club and normal BMI. My biggest emotional wow was walking into a Tommy Hilfiger store and buying jeans in a normal size (12).  I was obsessed for the last 3 or so years with getting some Tommy jeans and the plus ones never fit right.  I am ready to go back for some 10's may even be 8's now! Geez, I feel shallow now! LOL Kym

You soooo have to go shopping with me!!  I picked my Tommy's up at my swanky Goodwill for $2 --size 8.  I'd promise them to you, but I'm not sure I'll shrink anymore.

My biggest wow was posing for a group photo.  I was standing in the back to hide myself as usual.  One of the group said "Put the little ones in the front".  I just stayed where I was until one of them nudged me forward and said "Val, they're talking about YOU".....OOOps.  That group photo is in my profile.  The smile on my face says it all.
