My poor brother!

First of all,Hi guys! I have not been around for awhile. I was reading posts and am slaying the same dragons as everyone else. Doc says I am at a standstill and have done wonderful. I would like to lose another 15-20 pounds, but everyone else says I don't need to and with skin removal I would be at or below goal. The funny thing that happened was I went to a big wedding this weekend. It was my 23 year old brother's best friend's wedding. I had not seen anyone there for a long while. My brother's old football coach came up and hugged him and then smiled and asked who his "friend" was. Everyone there thought I was his date! He laughed and told them I was his sister. The coach's mouth fell open and he just stared at me for awhile, then he just said he thought I looked so different. A few minutes later, one of my old school teachers(whom I had a mutual hate relationship with) came over and said,"Crystal, is that you?" When I said yes she told me that she came over to confirm what the coach had told her and that noone believed him and thought he was drunk! "You are the talk of the room. I didn't know it was you and still have trouble believing it. You really look good now. I told everyone that you never looked this good in your life and that Shawn was just playing a trick on them. How old are you now?" What a witch! Anyway my poor little brother! I guess they thought he was into really OLDER women! I didn't mention that I always thought she was a horrible harpie, I just said thank you.

Isn't it a blast to get those compliments after not ever getting them before. I think your brother will survive. He was probably very proud that they thought his sister looked good. Thanks for the story. & again Welcome Back! Marilyn, the Bearlady
