Running into a old friend

Today I ran into a old friend I have not seen in 6 mos she had no clue I had WlS ,, she said oh my Lisa u look have lost alot of weight .. u look so good.. . she said what r u doing and I had to confess I had WLS.. she said your face stomach I can see a big difference Really made me feel good because I was not sure my family and close friends were just being nice and saying they can tell.. This weekend I have my family reunion and no one knows I had weight loss surgery .. so i am kinda bracing for the weekend to see if anyone notices .. aswell Time will tell.. Hugs to all and check out my new pics Lisa

I love your new pictures Lisa...you look great! (and no, im not just saying that to be nice!) I completely understand how you feel, as my family and colleagues have been making comments to my weight loss and for some strange reason i feel like they are just saying it to keep me motivated. Why is it that we cant seem to take a compliment ?? Well Im telling you ...you look Great Girl! Accept it You'll see when you see everyone at the reunion. They most definitely will notice. Be proud!! You're beautiful!!

What a nice feeling. I wish I could run into a friend that hasn't seen me in a while and see if they notice anything. I guess I will find out one of these days! Allie

Good for you, Lisa! That means that you now have to face the fact that you DO look great and you HAVE lost weight. It'll only get better!
