If at your pre-op exercise class the woman behind you grabs your waist in her hands while you are both doing jumping jacks and says "God i can't wait to be there".

When doing your pre-op labs, the lady checking you in says, "but your not heavy enough for surgery," you might be a lightweight.

You're told by others they can get the weight off you without surgery.... 

You are the small one in the waiting room of the surgeons and was asked BEFORE surgery how long ago you had surgery.. then the person said "but you're too small!"...

 If your surgeon says you don't need a pre op diet and you stuff your face until the day before surgery " you might be a lightweight"
 If you shell out 17K for weight loss surgery which saves your life even though the insurance companies wouldn't think of saving your life unless you are half way dead...you might be a lightweight

You might be a lightweight if you get told all the time you would never know what having a weight problem is like cause you've never had one.~ The first time a NURSE told me that I thought I would knock her out. This has happened to me several times in stores as well. People just assume if you are little now you have always been that way. One of the lucky ones so to speak. NOT don't judge a book by it's cover for you don't know the steps it took to get there!~
Nothing tastes as good as this feels!

I LOVE THIS POST!

If you've ever run into someone and had them exclaim out loud "God someone get this girl a donut!", you might be a lightweight.

If you walk down the street and a stranger asks who you model for, you might be a lightweight.

When 00 just ain't small enough, you might be a lightweight.

When you discover a shopping addiction after years of hiding in the house, you might be a lightweight.

When you have gone and bought a ton of clothes...repeatedly because you thought you could not possibly get smaller, you might be a lightweight.

When you eat whatever you want, and still lose, you might be a lightweight.

When you make women cry with hope because they find out you are a product of weight loss surgery, you might be a lightweight.

When every man tells your husband don't screw that up, oh yeah, you might be a lightweight.

When folks constantly try to hand you food and "sabotage your diet" (if only they knew HAHA), you might be a lightweight.

When you find yourself staring at all of the size 0 and 2 women in town and wondering how many of them are like yourself, (I would have never guessed this was possible I always thought they were genetically blessed), you might be a lightweight.

When you start thinking, maybe I should get some headshots done, you might be a lightweight.

When you can fit into your children's old jeackets and sweaters, maybe even borrow some of your teenage daughters clothes, you might be a lightweight.

God bless us all in our journeys :-)
