I am about 10 weeks out of surgery, down 34 lbs and 25 inches. On Sunday I saw a friend that I just saw on December 29th, and he did not recognize me! I also saw a friend at the gym tonight, and she sees me every day, and I walked in, and she said that my transformation was staggering.

SMILE :)

Ha, I thought this thread was going to be about you posting an NSV here and the OH folks not recognizing it!  Hee hee.

Congrats, that's a great feeling!  I haven't had anyone not recognize me yet, but that could happen, I suppose!  Everyone I know, knows that I had the surgery, so I think when they see me, they're expecting big changes - so everyone still recognizes me. :)

Congrats.  It can be fun especially when you think it is better people forget who you are.  Like ex's.

I've also cut my hair dramatically although the biggest cut was before surgery. My hair is super short now, in preparation for the hair loss, an subsequent re-growth. I should take a new photo and post it!
