This is a POSITIVE POST! What is the best compliment that you have received thus far?

- I was in the gym preparing for a 4 mile run on the treadmill. A gentlemen can to begin his workout next to me. He looked at me and "smiled and said hello". I smiled back, and stated my hello. Then he said something to me, and I could not hear him. So, I removed my earphones and said "excuse me?". He repeated himself and staid "IT'S GOOD LOOKING AT YOU TOO". And I was like, uhhhh ok....thanks...lol

I'm taking it that he meant, I looked good! Though I had never seen this man before, it was a nice compliment that he gave me in a quick 5mins before his workout....heheehe

What is the best compliment that you have received so far since getting your VSG?

"Nik, those pants are way too big for you now. You should retire them."

"You run around here like the Energizer Bunny!" from one of the gals where I work.

"I'm tired of you walking around here looking like a bum! I'm buying you some new clothes that fit!"

hahahahah Keep them jealous ladies! Good comments.

Sleeve2B that is so fun! I love all the funny comments about clothes being too big. i was shopping when my friend who i didn't know was they ran up behind me and yelled PULL UP THOSE PANTS YOUNG LADY, YOU HAVE A CASE OF DIAPER BUTT!!! (where your pants sag like a diaper)

as far as compliments, a guy at work told me "i like the way your curves are coming out lately" its nice to not be a big fat blob

Only 5 days out...my mom comes in to visit me today and says, "Well, obviously you have lost weight!" I think that was her first compliment......EVER!!!

loving this thread I'm only seven days out...

My favorite so far was "WOAH! Lisa you are looking so amazing how much weight have you lost??"

I went to the gym and the front desk asked to take another membership pic. I asked her why she said " You are melting away"

I'm lucky to have such a supporting work crew. Not one day goes by that someone doesn't comment.

I was at my desk and our general manager walks in and goes right past me. He asks my boss if I'm in today. I said I'm right here and he reply sorry I didn't see you. I laughed and said wait 6 months and I'll be non existent. He took it as a joke but I'm hoping I get an offer with better pay when I'm smaller! Lol

Omg I didn't even recognize you, you look like a totally different person before you were cute but now you are gorgeous ...you look like you are 20 yrs old,

My therapist, who I have seen every week for almost 2 years,looked at me and walked right past me in the waiting room. I was looking at him and he finally recognized me! He said I looked so different that he didn't realize it was me. I see him EVERY week!! I guess I must have done some big changing over that one week.....

Living the dream!!,

• When the office told me I had to take a new ID picture.
  
• Being called tiny (which I'm not, but it made me feel good)
  
• One guy at the office called me "the incredible shrinking woman"
  
• And when my husband calls me his "skinny wife".
  

It was before my youngest daughter's soccer game and I was talking to the coach when he stopped mid-sentence and said, "You know, you look REALLY young today!" I think I smiled all evening!! :biggrin5:

I have two

yesterday, a friend from high school called ME skinny--I busted out crying and freaked her out a little bit--but no one has called me skinny in thirty years

NEXT

my dad (bless his heart) doesn't see real good anymore--I walked into his living room the other day---and he didn't recognize me--when I said hi--he started laughing and told me he didn't know who I was--AWESOME!!!!
