today I did this consignment event that happens every so often, and to get more % of your sales you volunteer. Anyway, the owner who I have not seen since about August (right before my surgery) commented on how much weight I have lost. This is the FIRST person besides family that has mentioned it, so it made me feel great!!

Yay!

It is awesome when people start noticing. Once they start noticing, they don't shut up about it. I can't walk down the halls at work without being stopped several times. I know how celebrities feel about the paparazzi, now. People compliment and ask me about the craziest things -- the most frequent being how my boobs are holding up. I never knew this would be a topic of conversation between co-workers and their supervisor. LOL

I had almost no comments until I got below 200 (maybe lower). Now everyone comments.

My theory is that normal sized people see all fat people as fat - not varying amounts of fat. So when you're in plus sizes you're fat, then you become closer to normal size and people notice. Just a theory ...

Congratulations to you!

I hate the extra attention. My co workers are driving me crazy! It is non stop. I hate when they say, what are you doing? I simply reply everything. It gets very annoying.

I met my initial goal of 160!

Color me dumb, but could someone please tell me what NSV means? :)
