I don't post here very often, but I had to share what has probably been the biggest WOW moment I have had in the 18 months since my surgery.  The girl I was best friends with in high school moved to Colorado almost 3 years ago.  I hadn't seen her since way before she moved.  Her mom is having surgery in Cleveland tomorrow, so she is home visiting.  She came into my job when she got home from the airport.  I was giving her a hug, and when I pulled away, she was crying!!!!!  When I asked her what was wrong, and why she was crying, she just put her hand over her mouth, and said, "you're so tiny"  She was crying because she was so happy for me!!!  I have just not had that kind of reaction from anyone!!!  She made me cry!!  I just had to share.  I am so glad I made this decision to have this surgery, I feel so much better, and so much more complete now that I can be more active, and have the energy to do the things I want to do.

What a wonderful reaction!  It's SO nice to have people we care about be GENUINELY happy for our success... not just the weight loss, but the increased energy, better health, etc!  Thanks for sharing that. Lora
