What Has Been The Funniest Response To Your Weight Loss?

  • Popular Post

so, let's hear the funniest response to your weight loss.

For me, it was my 11 year old nephew. I hadn't seen him in a long time, and, when he found out that I had lost 100 pounds, his response was 'he's lost 100 POUNDS!?!?!? I wonder if he's still funny?'

When I finally got to see him the next week, I told him that I was sorry, but all of my funny melted off.

So, what's yours?

That's a funny story! So far, I can't think of anything funny that has been said to me, but I have not been at this for more than two months. But I do get amused sometimes when someone notices my weight loss and then gets all awkward about complimenting me because they think I might have been insulted by the compliment so they say..."not that you weren't beautiful before..."

I am glad all your funny didn't really melt off!

My daughter (she will be 4 in a few months) was looking at an OLD work ID picture. OLD from pre-lapband, even. I was around 400 lbs. I had a major, major round/pie face. She was like, "Mommy? Is that you?" I told her it was. And she said, "You kind of look like you. But kind of not. Did you got a new head?"

I recently straightened my hair, and cut it into a completely new style. I'd been wanting to for a while, but wanted to wait until my face had slimmed down a bit. So I've had the new style for a bit over a week. And I keep hearing, "Oh, I love your hair! It makes you look so much thinner!" And as I posted on MFP - Oh, or maybe it has something to do with the 85 lbs I've lost in the last 4.5 months, you jackhole! :)

Just an hour ago, one of the secretaries in my office asked if I had had my eyes done. She knew there was something different about me but she couldn't figure out what. I just said, "Yep!" and kept walking.

Funniest- maybe not. Coolest... yes!!!

I got out of a speeding ticket cause my drivers lic pic was insanely different than what I look like now.

After I convinced him that yes.... it IS me- he asked what happened. I told him about the surgery and he was pretty curious about the process and in the end let me go with a warning (warning to keep away from carbs and keep up the cardio!)

Yay for awesome life changes and the perks that go with them!

Hey have anyone ever traveled to Star Medica from El Paso
