Showing Off... Anyone?

Does anyone have any cool or funny stories of where you were able to show off to that ex or old roommate, coworker etc after dropping weight? Or maybe you have plans of "bumping" into that particular person once you reach that perfect "look at me now" weight?

WYSIWYG with me at any size. I won't show off or plan to bump into anyone, all of my exes and friends have embraced me at all the sizes I've been, but if they see me and compliment me on my weight loss that will make me smile. :)

I think it's funny how people react when they haven't seen you for awhile. I cut my hair really short when it started to fall out, so now I'm rockin a short pixie hair do, and my hair used to be down to the middle of my back. I have run into more than one person that I haven't seen for a long time and when they recognize me they say 'WOW! You cut your hair! It makes you look SO much thinner!' LOL The first time it happened I was shocked, now I just laugh it off ;) The last time, I said 'Yeah, who would have thought cutting my hair would make me look like 70 pounds lighter!' The person looked at me funny then it was like a light bulb went off, and they asked if I had lost weight too. I don't really tell anyone about my surgery, or tell anyone the numbers of my loss unless they ask, but people are funny. I hope you enjoy everyones reactions. You'll get tons of them :)
