Someone didn't recognize me!!!

It's been over two years and 110 lbs ago but sometimes you run into someone who hasn't seen you since surgery and it reminds you how far you've come. i've been down on myself lately because I still have 60-70 lbs to lose and have been trying to get outta that negative mindset. I was unfortunately recently at a viewing for my aunt's husband's mother's funeral. yea i know. anyway, one of the relatives that I rarely see was there and didn't realize who I was. It was pretty cool! Also while in NYC i walked a couple miles and it was nothing to do. I wasn't exhausted at all. If the weather had not sucked I would have walked around for hours and hours. so I have come a long way. My cousin is moving in this weekend and also has more weight to lose so hopefully we can help each other out. I would love one day to be at goal but I know only positive energy will get me there.

That's great, Nicole.  Feels good, doesn't it?

Terri

it sure does. hope you are well!

a very nice NSV Nicole!

it was. reminded me of how far i've come. makes me extremely greatful!

Awesome!!!!  I so cannot wait for this little treat! Positive reinforcement is a hell of a motivator!

you will be there soon enough i promise!

That's wonderful, Nicole! Sometimes we forget how far we've come b/c we forget, or don't want to even think, about how we used to be. It was a good little reminder for you for how far you really did come. The best success to you and your cousin!! :-)

That's awesome! I'm so jealous.

I went back to my office to drop something off yesterday and I haven't been in for 2 weeks. The front desk lady didn't even blink. I was hoping she wouldn't recognize me...I mean I even had sunglasses on.

LOL it will happen. people will be making comments constantly soon!
