Well, my higher boss hasn't really seen me in about a month. He saw me today and told me I need to stop losing weight because he has to squint now to see me. He said he was looking for me the other day and said he must have missed me because who he was looking for was someone that didn't even resemble who I am now. He said it's a good thing I talk a lot or he'd never know I was around. Ha! Because I know him so well, I took it as a compliment that he intended it to be.

Great Job and I love his comments. I think sometimes people aren't sure what to say and have it be a compliment.

people aren't sure what to say

@@Pillar2butterfly

many times people misunderstand what a person might say to them

a compliment is not always received in the good way it was intended

ie "you look so much better than before"

what does that mean, i used to look horrible?? :angry:

peoples words are usually not said/meant in a bad way

just clumsy

your boss is aces!!

we live for NSV's

keep them coming

kathy

congrats

Sounds like he has a sense of humor and was trying to find a way to tell you that all of your efforts to get healthy appear to be paying off. I would take it as a compliment.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
