[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 596799, member: 3419"] CalifBlonde, sometimes it takes that type of rudeness to wake us up. Aside from hurting your feelings, she may have done you a favor down the line in regard to your heart, thyroid, and joints, to say the least. She could have used the word "skin." There are lots of people in my area who work in doctors offices, who wear very low-cut tops, and when I am standing at the sign-in desk, I can see everything! It is so unprofessional and in some instances, gross. Somebody's got to say something, so I resort to waiting for the email surveys that offices send out now. I used to be best friends with-someone who had a serious issue about time. I tend to run late. Apparently she had been brooding for some time, and never told me. We mixed signals one day and I didn't even show up at all when we were supposed to meet somewhere. That was the straw that broke the camel's back. (Yes, I called to say I was coming and she never answered her phone. She was partially at fault. Long story.) She wrote me a scathing letter, telling me I was a liar and user and numerous other things. We're casual acquaintances now. But you know what? I'm not late as much any more. :) It hurt. I will never forget it. But in many ways, she was right. She just went about it the wrong way. I feel for you. I bet you'll make a lot of friends in this group. I have lots of friends who have joined Weight Watchers. You'll be amazed at how many people are there, and in the same boat. I have no idea what you look like but I'm guessing you're blonde, lol! And to go from a 4 to a plus size in a year is scary. Your mom sounds like a keeper. :) Best of luck. [/QUOTE]
