How does someone respond to that? My reply was a nervous "haha...what?"
What occurs next is a very large bite of one's foot....
"Well, Ally and I were talking about how you have come so far from a couple years ago and how you dress so much better and look so much better now. Isn't that right Ally?" As Ally is punching Susan in the arm ferociously turning beet red saying, "SHUT UP!"
Whoa...I had no idea that my "frump" status had become a popular subject for my gal pals. Sure I knew I was a "little" (lot) chubby, but I thought I hid it better. I had been trying to change my ways and get leaner, which I had done quite successfully at that point. I often reflect on that statement in my continuing journey toward health and fitness. I'm still a work in progress with 30 pounds gone, but hey, "I've come a long way." :)
