I only ever had one person say something like that to me. Believe it or not it was my mother N law. She has passed on now but she was well know for having diarrhea of the mouth. Once she gave my husband a shirt she bought on clearance as a gift for christmas. She bought him a medium and he wears an extra large. When he opened it, and said Mom I have not been in a medium since grade school. She said well lose some weight and it will fit you fine. LOL. That was just the way she was. I collect Wee Forest Folk mice, mostly the Halloween series. Once my mother N law gave me one as a gift for Christmas. It was a chubby mouse standing on a scale. I got the hint. She was just a very rude person who said whatever she wanted. I can laugh about it now but she hurt my feelings regularly. Unfortunately she passed away last April and I did not have my surgery until September. She will never see me at a normal weight. I hope she is looking down from heaven and is proud of the progress i have made.

I do however love going back to my job that I was layed off from and watching peoples faces when they see me. I am down 82lbs and it is very noticeable.

It is the best feeling when someone goes "oh my goodness, you look absolutely fabulous"

It gives me the motivation I need to continue on my journey.
