Last evening I was doing my usual Friday grocery run. I had spotted a frozen meal I had never seen before. The calories were right and I like to keep one in the freezer for those days.
I was checked out by a new cashier and the lady bagging my groceries was newish too. The cashier spotted the dinner and they were looking at it. I remarked on the calories (270)) and that led to more conversation. Turned out, the cashier had lost 278 lbs since 2013!! I asked how and she said just broiling, baking etc her foods. The lady bagging was amazed too as she didn't know. The cashier had once weighed close to 500.
I wonder if there was more to her story, but I thought it was pretty darn impressive either way.
