Littel_Urchin 24 Posted September 17, 2018 So this is kind of a non-scale victory for me. Nobody knows about my surgery except my SO. I've also been on self-imposed lock-down ever since I started my pre-op liquid diet and the only person who knows me who'd seen me after surgery before today was my landlady, who sweetly but carefully asked if I'd lost some weight because according to her, my clothes had been getting looser and that she could 'see' my face now. Today I went back to work after being gone for 1.5 months. I've lost approx. 22 pounds since my colleagues last saw me. I know I've definitely lost weight but I did not anticipate how my colleagues just FREAKED when they saw me. They echoed my landlady's sentiment, they said my face has slimmed down a lot and that my dress looked much looser now. They all came by my cubicle one by one to see me and compliment me on how 'skinny' I've become, joked that I was my own younger sister or an intern, all in all being very encouraging. I hit some kind of stall a week ago so this definitely boosts my motivation. So happy. 2 Spatulachick and diabladepaz reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
