I only started on MFP when I was 11 stone (154lb), but that was after I had come down from 11 stone 7 (161). Since joining MFP I have lost another 4 lb, but due to bad behaviour I have not moved for a long time and was feeling pretty discouraged. BUT THEN....
On Saturday I went to a barbecue (the torture!!! Why is summer nothing but barbecues???) and saw a friend I haven't seen in a long time. He double-took when he saw me and said "you're looking very slim, are you on some kind of diet?" Why, YES, friend, yes I am.
Made it SO much easier to resist wading into the French bread at the barbecue, and gave me a little spring to my step for the rest of the weekend. Did my full 40 minutes at the gym this morning, and have a whole new enthusiasm for this losing weight millarkey. A little compliment can make all the difference! Compliment your friends today! :P
