Shrunk'ded...NSV

bjclaywell · August 2011

I live a fairly boring life - same faithful folks around me all the time, etc., and I like it that way. I don't really have many friends that I see once or twice a year. Most everyone I know sees me all the time - so noticing a drastic difference in me has really only been with regards to having to purchase new clothes.

But yesterday I came back from a meeting, and a former employee of mine was at our reception desk chatting with our receptionist as I walked in. This former employee has not seen me for more than 3 months, although we've kept in touch electronically. As I walked in, she stopped mid-sentence, and said - "holy #$(*$# - look at you - you've, you've, you've - well, you've shrunk'ded." :laugh:

I have not any any single person be so impressed by my weight loss - except my mom who is just excited that we get to buy me new clothes.

I almost wanted to cry I was so happy - she told me that I looked like an entirely different person from three months ago, and wanted to know how much weight I'd lost, what all was I doing to keep it off (I think she thought I was done...and she was amazed when I told her I still had more to go).

Such a great feeling to have someone so overwhelmed by my appearance.
