So for the first time in years last night someone told me i'm looking slim, hurray! My friend's boyfriend came up to me and quietly said "please don't take this the wrong way, but you look like you've lost a LOT of weight! Not that I thought you were fat before though!" (haha trust men to quickly cover themselves!). No one's said that for so long, and for a boy to say it is quite a major thing! The weird thing is I haven't lost a lot of weight, i've only lost about 7lbs, but i'm only 5'3 so I suppose that makes a lot of difference. I'm doing a lot more physical stuff at work now too.

The other thing he said was that his gf (my best friend) told him how annoyed she was that I wouldn't take off my towel at the pool the other day because i'm slimmer than her! I'm totally not, i'm now at 141.75 lbs and she's like 120lbs at 5 foot, but it was a nice thing to hear :) Funny how girls can't tell you things like that to your face.

My BMI is now only 0.1 off the 'healthy' range, and another male friend told me i'm fine as I am, but whilst it's nice for people to say that, you've got to feel comfortable in your own skin. A bit more off, please! Still not bikini confident, must get off my butt and start that 30DS before my holiday.

    I love getting compliments! I went back home after starting my diet and people would come up to me and approach each other to ask if I'm "losing weight" LOL.... Uh yes DUH! HAHA and YEAH! I want to hear if you think I look like I lost weight dangit!!! :)

    Keep it up!
