BuffyBear's Journal, 22 Sep 12

We went out last night and ran into a couple I hadn't seen all summer. They were raving about the amount of weight I had lost.

I was puzzled because I've only lost 10 pounds since I've seen them last. Must be I'm starting to lose weight in the right places? Or maybe they just had too much beer!

Whatever the reason, I am thankful for the encouragement. I'll take it wherever I can get it.

I bet the weight is shifting around, too! LOL ? It is interesting when people start to notice, isn't it?I lost 45 pounds and no one said much - then I lost five or six more, and suddenly everyone was commenting! Weird, I say.

HCB - that is the same experience I had. Last week my hairdresser (same one I've had for years) noticed that I had lost weight. Of course, what really matters is that we notice.

it is great whn someone notices the change we have been working for.even if it is thru beer goggles.

Yeah - that we notice is great...but the encouragement from others is helpful to me, too! Not essential or necessary because I am losing for me and my health - but nice to hear.

I have to tell you my most interesting *you've lost weight* story -- the tech who did my mammogram asked me if I had lost weight - when I told her YES, she said, you're going to have to see the difference - it was amazing - simply amazing.

WOO HOO! Happy dancing around the room! The closer you get to your goal, more and more people are going to notice! I can tell from here you lost and my vision is pretty good. :) WTG kiddo! Hugs!

It's just great when people FINALLY start noticing! Weight is such a personal, touchy subject that it probably took the beer for them to feel comfortable enough saying what they'd been thinking for awhile now. Soak it all in and enjoy!

Rockytu - wonder what else those beer goggles are good for?

HCB - How true. Maybe we have a little bit of a vanity issue as well - LOL.

Gigi - so that is why I have to buy smaller bras!

GG- Thanks! But I did not know one could cook and dance at the same time?

Mom - you are the one we should be Happy Dancing for! Go get that Birthday goal!

Sandy - I remember your story about people finally noticing. But your weight loss was so much more significant than mine it was hard to believe - those people surely had vision problems! Anyway, I bet they are all noticing you now!

Buffy, when I am in the kitchen, doing what I love to do, the music is always on so it is easy to kind of move to the groove so to speak!

GG - I can picture you now!

Bren - you are right - it could have been the jeans.
