NSV: "Where did you go?!"

After a long hiatus (not on my terms), from working causally at the hospital as a porter, I returned this morning. As I was walking in to start my shift I heard, "Hey Crystal, where did you go?!" Thinking that my co-worker was just asking where I have been since she hadn't seen me for so long, I told her that I haven't been working much since the hospital started hiring nurses to do porter shifts. She shook her head and said: "No! I mean where have you gone?! Where's the other half of you!? I told her about MFP and how it is helping me get down to my goal weight.

Her comment was just what I needed to hear today.
