Real People In My Life

The people in my life are so great!

I am so fortunate to have very supportive family, friends and co-workers. They all have lifted my spirits during this journey.

Last week a Dr. (who I have worked with for over 10 years and consider family) told me I was looking like a stick woman. He struggles with weight himself and said it as a compliment. Of course I don't look like a stick woman, as I am still a couple pounds into the obese category, but his compliment made me feel good.

Today one of my co-workers told me how great I was looking and that she could tell I was feeling better. She said "you look like a different person." She has been so supportive from day one and has considered LAP-BAND® in the past. Now, after seeing my results, she is going for it!

She has a consult next week.

My spirits are lifted :tongue_smilie:

Aw...that is great! Love the NSVs. :tongue_smilie:

Isn't it amazing how a simple compliment can make or break your entire day?

Howsabout posting some pics so the rest of the world can see your progress?

I'm still a little shy about posting pics and don't have good recent ones. Maybe I'll take my camera to work tomorrow and have one of the girls take a pic. We'll see how it turns out.
