My dad is legally blind but can make out figures. Yesterday, while visiting, he asked me if I was losing weight. How stinking awesome is that??

    That's great! At first I thought you were going to be talking about someone like my husband who can see perfectly but is not observant at all. LOL

    And the coolest part was he had just had some skin cancer removed from his ear & wasn't wearing his glasses. He REALLY couldn't see much. :) I hugged that man, I adore him.

    I would say that is pretty freakin awesome! Not only did he pick up on your shape but maybe he also noticed you breathing easier? Or even if you walk a little taller now? No matter, still pretty awesome. Feels good to be noticed for your efforts, don't it? :bigsmile:
