An UH DUH Moment

Had a compliment today about my hair?

No I hadn’t done anything new to it. Maybe it was just curlier with the humidity.

Then a couple of hours later it was an UH DUH moment

when I realized that my face is thinner and that was probably the difference!!! Never even thought of my weight loss!!!

Maybe the person was trying to see what was different about you and seized on your hair. Still, like the above-enjoy a compliment in any form.

Isn't it amazing what these little compliments can do for us? My hairdresser only sees me twice a year for a trim and she just stared and stared and stared the finally asked if I'd had a face lift!!! My jowls and double chin are gone and she'd never seen my face before I put on so much weight so it was a big surprise to her to actually see my cheekbones and jaw line.
