I went to St. Cloud the other day for a conference.  I ran into at least 2 dozen people who know me, but they didn't recognize me because of my weight loss. They made comment like "oh you look so good"  Oh I am so proud of you" and "I would have never recognized you if you didn't say anything"  All I could say back was thank you and give them a hug.  There were lots of happy tears shed that day.  It made me realize what an accomplishment this is.
