Talking I love this!!!

Two people have approached me today and asked me if I'm losing weight. I love it when others notice!! Especially when I start getting the feeling that I haven't lost enough, or that I'm not losing fast enough. Compliments keep me motivated!!

I'm especially surprised since I've only lost 10lbs. I didn't think that it would be noticable so soon.

I'm on cloud 9.......

Wtg Angie,

Any compliments are good because they make you realise it's all worthwhile and keep you motivated.

LOL

Default Congrats!!!

That's great angie. You are probably losing inches faster than the lbs on the scale. Keep up the good work. Sabrina

That is so COOL!!!

Picture 10 pounds of butter in a bag. Picture yourself picking it up. Carry it in your mind for about a mile - tired yet??

OF COURSE people have noticed - my goodness 10 pounds is a huge LOAD!

Your mission for tomorrow - go to a fitness shop and pick up a 10 pound weight - think about it for awhile....

That is great - and it won't stop either - they will be noticing for ages. Wait till you go somewhere, and run into people you haven't seen in a few months. They will keel over. You think you're on cloud 9 now... !! HA just wait

Talking Thank you

I guess I should be more proud of the weight I've lost so far.

And I've thought of running into people I haven't seen in a long time and seeing their reactions to my new body!! Especially old boyfriends!! When I was thin before I used to be so proud of my body and I loved to show it off (modestly, of course ), but I haven't been able to do that for so long now. I can't wait to recapture those oh so good feelings!!

130lbs here I come!!!!
