Losing too much weight
Having too much money
My car being too fast
All problems I think I could live with.

I weigh everyday and log it in a monthly calendar. I try not to let the daily weights bother me, I look for a pattern of loss and calculate my loss monthly. I measure myself monthly and I haven't been good about taking taking pictures. Good Luck with your plan.

I would tell her:

I THANK GOD everyday that I live in a world where I can have lasix surgery to improve my eyesight. (Permanent re-formation of cornea, can't be reversed)
I have had a few teeth removed, several moles and a growth removed from my nether regions which was causing me issues. Don't want anything back.
I have had friends have their tonsils, appendix, spleens, ovaries (and associated parts) removed when they aren't working for them anymore, and they are better for it. (Permanent removal of organs, don't want them back)
I have also had 85% of my stomach removed so I can have a tool to restrict my intake and help me lead a healthier life and be there for my family and friends.
I know God intended babies to come out the way they went in, but it is good to know these smart men and women are there to help with surgeries.
I also know these same smart men and women do surgeries for vanity purposes, and I am glad God put them here to help those who feel they need it.
What class of people do you think God would look down on more, those getting surgeries for vanity or those trying to improve the quality of their lives? My 2 cents

Easy. I say "I am dieting".
If they want specifics, I just tell them I am under strict doctor's supervision. If they want even more detail, I say it boils down to calorie restriction.
Most people quickly catch on that I am not on a fad diet I got from a recent best seller and they stop asking questions.
Most people seem to expect you to name a recent fad (ie: 'I'm on the cabbage Soup diet' or I'm on the sauteed sawdust diet') and when you don't mention a specific diet by name, they quickly lose interest. Nobody wants to hear about restricting calories and following doctor's orders.

Awesome!!

Wow, you are doing fabulous! Keep up the good work. Your pictures are good motivation for the rest of us.

Great job! You look fabulous.

Being WAY smaller than my husband's ex-wife (saw her at a family party). :-) (evil smile)
