Happiness is.....

NOT getting recognised by your own daughter!! :)
I went to our Autorama yesterday. (feb 25, 2011)  I called my daughter on her cell phone to meet me in the lobby area so we could hook up since both her and my son have entries in the car show.
As she was walking the long entrance area, I see her searching for me, and I was standing just about 20 feet from her!! so I wave and say hello.. she looks shocked, and says..."OMG! I didnt recognise you!  I guess I am finally starting to look so different with my weight loss, that people are looking for the old me, and not finding her!   PLUS, last year, I was in a wheel chair due to my size not being able to walk around that giant display area/center.  Wow, what a difference a year makes and 100lbs gone! I walked, and I enjoyed myself. 

Then, ANOTHER person didn't recognise me! I was standing next to my son's auto club president and he was talking to my son, then suddenly, he did a double take to me...he went..."OMG!! oh....HI!!"   he didnt know it was me standing there until he looked closely a second time!  so awesome!!
Then his wife came up to me and said..." I just want to say, you look fantastic.  I hear you lost alot of weight.."  when I told her yes, 100lbs...she congratulated me and said..."well, it sure shows and you look wonderful." 
Most of the people here have not seen me in one year...so they can really see the difference.  Finally!!  I love it!

Besides not having to rent a wheel chair, which is a huge NSV, having people be shocked when they saw me, has to be the best feeling in the world.  This surgery just gets better every day..
:)  happy dancing again!!
