Recently a former coworker got hired back on at my job after about a year of being gone. The very first thing they did was ask if I'd lost weight (I have, about 55 pounds and counting in the last two years) and said I was doing an amazing job. My boss, who was hired on last year, apparently knows me as "health conscious and fit". One of my team members even said that it was obvious I go to the gym at a glance.
This is such a radical change for me. I've literally never been known as a fit person; as a kid I was very underweight and as an adult I've been overweight for a long time.
I know I've been making progress but it feels so different and incredibly validating to see a shift like that in how I'm perceived by other people.
I truly hope that everyone else here finds sources of validation like that, wherever it might come from 💖
