Talking my first NSV! yay!

So I was talking to my top boss today and she suddenly stopped talking and said "Wait, have you lost like a ton of weight?? You look great!"
At which point I almost fell over.

Yeah it's kind of exciting as silly as it seems
I'm used to people looking at me in the "oh my how you've gained weight since I last saw you" kind of way, so it was a confidence booster to hear someone say otherwise.

In my own experience, I have realized how much nicer people are to me when I weigh less. When I was at 130 at the end of high school, many guys my age were nice and respectful. Now a lot of them are exactly the opposite. I don't act any different, I just look different. It sucks how people judge you so much by how you look..but I guess its only natural. I am sure that I do that sometimes myself.

I totally agree. It really is awful how judgemental people can be.
