What is the best compliment you have heard lately?

Hey guys! I got THE BEST compliment ever over the weekend!

My best friend in high school saw me for the first time in about 13 years at a family wedding. Before she even said hello she screamed at me (with lots of exploitatives) "OH my God, you B*tch. I can not belive you look exactly the same as you did in high school. I hate you!" I cried then and there! Then I had to explain why...lol...

Some of the guys that my husband worked with about 5 years ago asked when he divorced his first wife, and how he managed to hook such a cute little thing (they thought I was no more than 20 years old)

That was pretty cool.

I have 5 punds to go until goal weight and I constantly look in the mirror and think what a fat a@@ then, I remember...I'm not fat anymore!!! I was doing that just this morning and my boyfriend said baby you are not big....just look at yourself! I think I must have some type of - what's it called - body dismorphic disorder, anyway, my point here being - he told me i was "AVERAGE" size. That was the best feeling ever!!! lol.

Hmm....I think what means the most to me is when I have other bandsters tell me that I'm their inspiration. It's a lot to live up to, so maybe it'll help keep me in line a little bit!

But, I also had a special "compliment" while I was driving down the highway. I was slowly passing a car, and I hear a loud whistle. I glanced over, and there are 3 young men in the car, one hanging out the back window, yelled, "Hey mama, you lookin' hot!" LOL I got past them, and out of sight before I pulled down the mirror to take a glance and say to myself, "I do??!!....yeah. I do."

:faint: I just got the most unexpected compliment of my life last night. On my way out for dinner last night I saw a neighbor I hadn't seen for a few months putting his Christmas lights out with his children. When I went over to say hi he looked confused at first then said "OMG is that you? I was starting to think your husband had traded you in for a new wife. If you hadn't come over to talk I would have never recognized you." He even made one of his kids run in to get his wife to come out and take a closer look at the "new" me.

The only thing that ruined the moment for me was realizing after I got in the car that I had stepped in his dogs fresh poo and was now both late and stinky for my dinner appointment. But it was all good for a compliment like that.

I had the best week ever! I went to Cali on a business trip. People who haven't seen me in a year, did not recognize me. Most people, I mean 90% had no idea who I was. Of course that felt great, but there was one compliment that stood out...

"She looks great now, but of course we loved her before" my friend Chris told his friend who couldn't stop talking about how much I had lost.
