Red in the face

[NoMoreJunk]

Hi All,

I had a rather embarrassing and lovely moment at work today. One of my colleagues has been off for a week and a half and when she saw me she said how great I looked and how much weight I had lost pretty loudly! Cue the whole office floor (I work in an open plan office) agreeing and saying you can definitely tell from my face etc. It was lovely as apart from my boyfriend no one had noticed but I did go red in the face, I'm not a centre-of-attention kind of person! It did help that I wore a slightly tighter dress today as I can now fit in to it!

Off to the gym now!

Thanks Ruth! I feel more confident now! I did the HIIT workout I saw on another post and I was nearly physically sick but I so am impressed at myself for managing it! I thought I was doing HIIT before but I don't think I was pushing myself enough!

I've got a long way to go but posting and being part of this forum is definitely keeping me going in the right direction. Good experiences such as yours is like the solar lights in the garden, just lovely

This forum is amazing - I don't think I would have got so far if it wasn't for you guys (cue gushy music!). You will get there and make the garden sparkle!

Well done you, take a bow. All your hard work is paying off, enjoy the praise and use it to springboard into the next few weeks. Keep up the good work.

Thanks Jenever! I walked with a spring in my step after that, although now I feel I need a lie down after that gym session!

Fab! When others start commenting you know that the scales haven't been lying to you !

Enjoy the compliments and be proud!

Thank you It is only now that I have really physically seen and felt the results of healthy eating. Hope you are having a good week!

Enjoy the attention, if you had got larger and then said something it wouldn't be so good

Thank you Nsky24!

Well done, isn't it great when others notice. That must such a motivation to keep going!

I think going down a dress size and other people noticing is better than what the scales tell you 👍

Can't wait to have that moment 😉

[NoMoreJunk Maintainer 2st 7lbs Healthy BMI in reply to Elissy]

I completely agree - a whole new wardrobe is opening up you will have many moments over your journey - just you wait and see!

Well done you. So lovely when people notice the changes. A fluffy moment - you must have felt chuffed.

How wonderful was that ? I would go red faced too LOL. It's great when people notice and when they say something to you, there is something very rewarding about that.

Big smiles all round, well done on your achievements
