NSV - they don't happen often at 3.5 years out

Yesterday I met a friend from online for lunch.  She had RNY about seven months ago.  We had a great lunch and talked for a long time, until I had to run off because I had to be somewhere else (I would have liked to have stayed and talked longer).  Of course we talked a lot about RNY but we talked about other stuff too.  She told me she knows a couple people (in "real life") that have regained after surgery so she was glad to see a "functional post op" eat lunch like a "normal person."  Which totally cracked me up.  Me, functional?  A normal person?

But I'm calling it a NSV, and those don't happen that often at 3.5 years out.  It was fun.

Then I had dinner with my mother and sister, who told me I am "stick skinny."  I am not.  They also congratulated me for not having a lot of excess skin following my weight loss and then discussed the benefits of tummy tucks.  Um, why would I want a tummy tuck if I don't have much excess skin?  Sigh.
