To start out, I will be 2 years out in June. So, at this point in my journey I thought everyone I know has seen the new me.... I guess not..... Last  we went out to dinner to CHili's (not very healthy eating friendly) but anyway.... My husband saw his best friends mom.  She was warm and happy to see my husband and children and then looked at me and didn't say much to me... she was kinda stand-offish.  I thought it was strange because she was always very pleasant to me.   I mentioned to my husband that I thought she was acting strange and it was only to me... so we finished our dinner and didn't think about it again.    This morning his friend called and asked what we did last night and did we see his mom. Well of course my husband said yes and told him by the way your mom was acting weird. Well his friend went on to say that his mom had called him and asked if my husband has a sister...(he doesn't)  and if not then he is cheating on Jessica( me) because he was out to dinner with a strange woman I didn't recognize.  Apparently, she didn't know I had my surgery (I tell people if they ask)  and the change is so drastic she didn't even know who I was.   What a huge wow for me... I have been having a hard time the past couple months with body image.  I still feel like a mo woman some days and my brain hasn't  caught up with my body.   Even 2 years out there are still moments that help me realize that My life has done a 360 for the better.
