Topic: RE: Family, you just gotta love 'em...
You know I get a LOT of reaction to my weight loss. People say, "You look FABULOUS!!" It makes me feel great, however there are some people who don't say anything. One of my best friends didn't say anything when I saw her recently over THanksgiving. She said she didn't want to make me feel uncomfortable or totally focus on that. I know her well enough to know that she wasn't trying to be rude and wasn't focused on herself, she truly didn't want to make me feel uncomfortable and she thought it would. SOme people think if they say something that it'll make us feel bad about the way we looked before. Well, it NEVER does that to me. I LOVE hearing it! But not everyone knows that.
I'm sorry you had that experience but 80 lbs is HUGE!!! I think you're doing great and keep it up!!!!

That's so awesome! I remember how awesome it felt to be halfway there. Doesn't it feel so much more manageable now? It does for me!! I have about 40 or 45 lbs. to go I think and it feels like, "whew, I can do this!" I agree that this is the best Christmas present ever!!!
