Wooohooo!!!!!  I am reading about this after the fact but SO PROUD OF YOU!!!!  What an absolute angel you are to put yourself out there like this 'under the microscope' as you say...you will never know how many people you touch with efforts like this. 

Like Natalie, I usually scoff at sensitivity training because you can't legislate feelings but it's ABOUT TIME we do something about obesity being the last acceptable form of hatred.  It just needs to end and education, education, education will be the only way.

HUGS!!!

  

glad to be touched by my very own angel,

scrape on my ankle from my joggin "accident" the other day...looks like i've been mauled by a pack of hungry lions or something.

i just out this morning, after an hour-long telephone interview i'm among the few final candidates for this really cool position i found and will need to come in for an in-person interview next Wed. That's great news--they had like 500 resumes and i think i'm among the final 3 candidates.

the position would be perfect for me at this stage would fit my personality/skills (you still have to be an attorney to do it but it also involves pretty high-level management responsibilities)--i think because i graduate law school when i was pretty young they may be expecting someone older (i'm 33 but ever since i lost the weight everyone tells me i look more like i'm in my late 20s than early 30s and i keep getting carded in bars and restaurants. on top of that i now have this huge booboo on my ankle and it will show even through pantyhose.

I though of wearing a pantsuit but for this position a knee-length skirt suite is really more appropriate at an interview. i even have a perfect Tahari one i recently bought (just tried it on---it fits but it's size 2p and if i gain even an pound before wed. , the skirt might look a little too snug...

of well, wish me luck...it's a long shot but would be perfect for me right now

Thanks RO.. love you!

Thanks girlie.. I get this too, ppl don't know that I was heavy b4 and start making remarks.. I set em right also, infuriates me!!!!!

So glad you think what I did was honorbale - like I said it puts me under the microscope that much more but I gotta do it, its for the bariatric community and well for obesity awareness and teaching.. I have to do it.  I could never say no.

Thanks for supporting me!
