Ok, so I know I'm here having another yay me moment, and as its the 3rd this week I apologise if its getting boring.
I just wondered if anyone else found that you suddenly hit a point where everyone around you suddenly realised your weightloss and starts commenting?
I felt better and kind of hoped for the odd complement every pound I lost over the first stone, nothing was said, and I just gave up on the observation skills of others.
This week, and 48lb down the penny dropped, and TWELVE of my friends have noticed and commented, including one person telling me not t lose much more (the same person begged me to lose weight when I got married at just 2lb heavier than I am now!!!), and a friend not recognising me at all from behind!!
I'm delighted, but it fascinates me that there seems to be this optimum point of change in people's collective conscious!!
