NSV - can't get used to them!!!! October 26 Shirt Size 3xxl Pants - very tight! Today - Put on a XL shirt and pants 12 sizes smaller and very loose! I am a strutting around work today like a peacock!

Good morning everyone! I hope and pray your journey is going well. My surgery was Oct 26 and I have lost almost 100 # since my heaviest weight and almost 75 since surgery. I am looking and FEELING great! Now, enough of the bragging... To my question: I have noticed at work, in the past, when I made proposals, no matter the situation, certain people would immediately put them down, degrade my knowledge, and more often than not, they would resurface 3-4 months later as their own proposals and the celebrations would begin. Since my weight loss, my proposals are getting serious consideration and implementation. Even ones 6 months ago that were summarily dismissed and I am reintroducing are being seriously considered. The only change I can think of is my weight loss. Am I crazy? Has this happened to anyone else? I have been told my personality hasn't changed and my professionalism is the same. I know, ride the wave and enjoy but this is nagging at me. I wonder what if I would have lost the weight years ago. Where would I be? Anyone have work horror/success similar stories?
