So about 5 years ago I was in my senior year in high school and working at a local grocery store.. At this place I got the biggest crush on one of the other workers.. And although we talked and were very close, nothing ever happened because he told me he liked me, but did not want to "hurt" me.. Quite honestly I always thought it was because of my weight, which was somewhere in the 230 or so range.. Although he never really told me that was the reason, somehow I figured when he started talking to someone else....
And so time went by and I got bigger, and Bigger.. And BIGGER!!
Then I started this journey and started getting smaller, and smaller and smaller still, even smaller than I was in high school!!
And here is when that "guy" comes back into the play..

Yesterday when we went to visit my mom we stopped at this grocery store, that I hardly ever go to. I am sitting in the car trying to explain to my husband that I want a bottle of water, but that I want Zephyrhills and not Dasani. When my husband gave me the "WTF are you talking about" look I decided to get off and get my own freaking water.. LOL!
As I reach for the bottle of water who else should appear, but my "special friend." And he had the most priceless look on his face!! He took a double take and said "Hey, I didn't recognize you for a bit." He starts chatting and making conversation and gives me the up and down look and says "I can tell life has been good to you." I smile at him and start to walk away. Yet he decides to chase me and continue conversation. Then I look at him and with a sarcasm-filled voice I tell him.. "Life has been good to you too." He slaps his chubby cheeks and says, "Can you tell I gained some weight." LMBO!! That punk got so chubby!! It was like a Karma-filled room!!! One of the best moments of my life.. & that's that I am not even at goal yet.. I plan to make a return visit when I do. But until then I just wanted to share the awesome NSV that I have not been able to stop smiling about since yesterday!!

BTW: I looked a little like this:

    Thanks everyone. I never imagine I'd be the one telling a story like this!! I really felt amazing.. Cloud 9 was like 10 clouds below me at that point!! I almost felt like giving him a link to this site.. Being that the people here are so supportive!!! LOL! But he can figure it out by himself!!

    That was not only my moment, but a moment for all the people who have been rejected based solely on what's on the outside and not the inside!! A victory for us*** YAY!!!
