A little note from a co-worker encouraging me to count my blessings, another stopping by my desk to offer more encouraging words and a visit to my orthodontist resulting in praise and excitement about the progress of my bite and teeth. I love it! Hahaha, I could get used to this! It got my mind and attitude going in the right direction. It prepared me for the incredibly ignorant comment another employee came and made later in the day. She asked me where I'd been, pointed out that I'd lost weight and then asked...so is that why you did it? Yes. Yes moron, I had a double jaw surgery so that I could lose weight, because I was SO huge before that I needed to take drastic measures. Sheesh. Undeterred by my "no!" she then asked what I'm eating to stay so thin....all I could do was take a deep breath people. Later in the day I got about 4 "you look weird"s from my husband's nieces when I went to pick up my son. That was fun. Honestly though, it didn't get my attitude down since I had received so many positive vibes this morning. Thank God!
It was a little gloomy and cold today so I enjoyed staying at my desk as much as possible, reading my ebooks every chance I get. Coziness! I also had some decaf with cookies dropped into it (to soften them) and it filled me up for so long! I'll be looking forward to doing that everyday now! Yummy and filling.
I may finally post a photo of my slightly swollen face. Now that I know it's not forever, it doesn't feel as scary. Lame, but true. Maybe I'll post a timeline of my swelling so you can all enjoy the "beauty" of progress! Haha. g'night!
