Default Momorial of 100 lbs

In my mind, I experienced the coolest thing yesterday and I just had to share with you all.

Thursday my boss sends me a meeting planner for 7:30 in the morning. I could not help but wonder what I was in trouble for. So I stopped by and asked what I needed to bring in order to be prepared. She responded with nothing, I just want to pick your brain about some stuff. Okay so during the meeting I am feeling rather honored that she finds my input valuable. Then we walk to our department meeting...leaders running late and the team sounds out of control. I walk in and all I hear was "SUPRISE" and horns blowing. My meeting with my boss was simply a diversion tactic. For a breif moment I was bummed that my input was not as valuable as I originally thought.

What they were celebrating is the coolest thing of all. The party was to a WAKE if you will. They were celebrating the loss of 100 lbs for me. They made a big deal about something that was only really important to me - my goal, not theirs! They made me wear a shirt that said "Tiff 100 lbs later..." and they got balloons, plates, napkins, buttons, and a customized sign with "100" on them.

I mean these are people I work with and at times I am hard on. It is not like my family who knows that I love them through the good and bad. Obviously I have made an impact though. I just felt so honored.

My daughter was there and took some pictures. When I get them, I will post them.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

How awesome for you! That's the best! Feel honored. My boss hasn't said the first thing, but I think he's scared to say something.
