Default Being Noticed

WELL i just had a HUGE NSV a day ago
my DH came home, hes been gone about 3 weeks. He is working away from home and came to visit me and he gave me a huge hug and kiss and said "WOW OMG HONEY YOU LOOK AND FEEL GREAT!! I can FEEL a HUGE difference!" i asked "REALLY~!!!?" "YES! dont think your hard work isnt paying off! I thought i'd feel a slight difference, but i feel a HUGE difference! I'm kind of surprised!"


Now coming from a man who would see me EVERY single day and for him to notice that big of a change in 3 weeks :O WOOHOO!!!!


I wanted to share because that was the best thing i could have heard even though my scale isnt moving as much as i'd like.. the inches are coming off!

Wow! Good for you (and your husband)!!! It's soo great when people notice the weight loss, but when people you're so close to notice, I think it's extra special. :-)

Yay! It's really awesome to notice things yourself, but it's almost better when your man notices. It always gives me a little extra thrill when my sweetie notices my efforts.

Glad to hear that you have the support from your husband as well as validation for your efforts. Personally, I can say that without my hubby's support, I wouldn't had made it to this point in my weight loss journey.
Congrats and keep up the good work!!!

Awww it feels so good when someone else notices a weight loss but when it is your spouse I know it's makes you all giddy inside. Last year I did drop 20 some pounds and when my husband noticed I jumped for joy..To bad I have put it back on now.
For the most part my husband is very supportive with my wanting to lose weight but when he tells me I look fine and loves me no matter what... I just have to tell him I want to do this for ME, I want to feel good about myself for ME.
