Already getting WOW moments...

Apr 14, 2009

Last night I already started getting my WOW moments.  I went to Karate last night and when I had my Gi on, I looked in the mirror in the dojo and actually could see for myself a difference in my size.  And my belt straps hang down to my knees now!   When we were doing our exercises, we were jogging in place.  When the teacher says "hit it" we go down for 10 push ups ( i do the girly kind ), I noticed that I got down on the floor and up again alot faster than I used to.  Before I was like an old lady working my way back up.  Not anymore!  Of course I thought this was just a personal observation.  Until on the way home my 14 year old son who takes the class with me said " I'm glad you had the surgery.  You get down on the floor and up again alot better.  Not like before where you were soooo slow.  I really like it"   I almost started to cry.  But I held it together.  Then my 13 year old daughter when I was saying good night to her later.  Told me that her friend Andrew said he saw me walking the other day.  He told her he didn't realize it was me, then he said when he saw it was Maile's mom, he told her "you mom looks gooooooooood!"  Wow, a compliment like that from a 13 year old boy!  I didn't think they noticed anything!  I am feeling pretty good right now.   I have lost 37 lbs so far and keep losing!   I really am glad I had this surgery.  I haven't felt so healthy in a long time!   I see my diabetes doctor on Friday.  Let's see what he has to say, hmmmmm.
