Hello to all my new friends out there! (have I mentioned that I love this forum?) I thought I would come chill in the lounge and tell a kinda funny story about my lap band seminar on Thursday. I am fine with it, so it is all told lightheartedly..

Well, when you walk into the seminar, which most of you probably know, they take your height and weight, calculate your BMI, get you set up with a packet and show you what to fill out...yada yada yada...

Well, out of all the people in the world, my husband's (of almost 9 years) ex girfriend from like '92 or '93 or something, who is blonde, tan and beatiful - took my heigh and weight. She was actually VERY nice and so was I. We laughed and talked, she complimented my hair and I complimented her too. It was all just fine. She asked me how my husband and I were and I said we were great!

I even joked at the very beginning and said "okay out of all the people in the world you are going to take my height and weight?" She laughed though, and said "Don't be embarrassed we are here to help!" She was very professional and very kind. I really like her! We small talked a little as she was writing things down, and it was all good...

Just thought it was kindof a funny coincidence that I walk in and there she was! During my husband and my's dating times, I had heard about her and she's basically, with looks, everything I'm not...I'm redheaded and big and chubby..people say I remind them of the campbell's Soup girl...and she is small and skinny and blonde and looks like a model:rolleyes:...anyway I don't worry about her anymore, but it was juts kinda funny that she was there....

It was still a great day..and I feel nothing but kindness toward the girl. Just thought it was quite ironic...

God Bless!!!:rolleyes2:

That is funny. I probably would have walked out or demanded someone else weigh me, cause I am just that way, lol.

I would have been pissed that she was weighing me. LOL I would have asked for someone else. I am stubborn though.

Glad things went so well though.

hehe I would have busted up laughing to be honest. I am just that way. I am the type that I find humor in almost all situations. To me that would have been a good laugh for at least, AT LEAST 2 weeks.

I would have done my best to laugh, while likely crying on the inside!

Years ago, I had just divorced my DD's dad, because he was cheating---and fathered another child. We were in KMart to get my DD's picture taken, and I signed up, since there was a wait----and not too long later here comes the b#*ch and her baby, and signs up. She had not seen me (she was scared of me!!), so when he called out the last name, we both went up. He looks at us and ask "Who was first?" I told him "I was both times" she skittered off and left!!!

Through the years, he cheated on her too, and they too divorced, and our kids remain close----but at the time I got great pleasure in doing that!!!

You have a great sense of self, and I bet you if nothing spurs you on to make this a success---she will!
