Confused..

Second time in a row that somebody stops me and ask me about my weight loss.. I end telling them about my surgery . Im proud of myself but sometimes I fell like I need to keep my story just form me. Am I wrong? This is happening in my daughters school.

Until you are more comfortable just thank them and say you are working on being healthier. Smile wide and go on your way...Maybe in the future you will yell it from the roof top..who knows but it will be up to you what you want to do and how comfortable you are to do it....

Congrats by the way on being noticed because of a loss!
