Default I love my co-workers . .

casual friday so it's the one day a week lately that I wear clothes that properly fit. All my work app clothes are in that phase of not too big to wear, but not quite fitted anymore, so it distorts my shape I suppose.

Jeans and fitted t-shirt today, besides being hugely comfrotable (and presentable) who doesnt love working in jeans

Anyway, I went to ask advice from one of our senior associates and a group of 3 of them were chit chatting, I was about to say I need an opnion/advice when one of them busts out with
"Can I just say you are looking fantastic, you've lost so much weight and it really shows. Just great" I was taken aback when another sr adds
"Lost more is more like it, shes determined - you go to the gym everyday at lunch pretty much dont you?"
"Uhh, well yeah I try to" I reply
"Well it shows, you look great. I think I should follow your lead, I need that motivation to go to the gym" says the 3rd sr.

I was a little dumbfounded to be honest . . . I love my co-workers

I hope everyone else is having a great start to your day too

Ahh, your co-workers are great! What wonderful praise they set upon you. It's nice when others notice what you've accomplished.

But you are the one who gave them cause to notice. You and your hard work. And boy oh boy is it paying off! Keep on going.

I really feel so lucky to have been hired on here, i read some of the issues others have to deal with regarding co-workers, I've really lucked out and found a good environment.

I'm almost more pleased that some one thought of me as a person to set an example (if that makes sense)
Really did make a great start to the day

Yay! Your co-workers sound amazing. It's always great to know people are noticing your hard work and results. It feels good no matter what, but when people say things like that it has to being even more encouraging! Way to go!
