Well, I've lost just almost 10 lbs so far, in almost 3 months But, I'm fitting clothes better and feeling more confident...hubby has noticed too! But a real boost came last night!

I walked to the breakroom to find 2 coworkers and my manager scarfing down cordials...offered me some, I said 'no thanks, I'm trying to lose weight'...manager stopped, said 'did you just say you're trying to lose weight?' I said yes, she said 'you do NOT need to lose weight'. I couldn't believe it...I almost wanted to hug her...lol. No one has ever told me that before!

I'm sure it's because she sees me in a vest all night that covers up my behind and back fat, but still!

My jeans are fitting loser and I just bought them tight so that I'd have awhile to wear them!

Compliments go such a long way when you are trying to diet.
Congrats!

I sort of had the same thing happen to me last night. I stopped by a friend's house and they asked how I did. I told them I had 23 more pounds to get rid of yet. They both looked at me like I was nuts. She said, "you're going to look sick if you lose any more weight." Well, I've NEVER had that problem before!

Congratulations, that is great. I had a similar incident last night. I saw my sister and I told her that I only had 2 more lbs. that I'm trying to lose. She said "I don't see anywhere you could lose any more weight". Well, she hasn't seen me without clothes, but it felt nice to hear anyway.

It's good to hear that y'all are getting the same responses! It feels great, and it seems to always come at a time we need it most, huh?

I started to say 'well I have 30lbs to lose, what you gonna think then?'...lol.
