So I was at church this afternoon and my Brother in law was there and saw me and noticed I had lost some weight. Although I have only lost 8 pounds since I started MFP, I have lost a total of 13 pounds since I started. It was a good feeling. Been feeling really down about myself (not really regarding weight but who I am in general) so it was a nice comment that is much needed!

    Yay, that's wonderful. If feels great that folks notice. I'm so happy for you!
  • God will send people to assure you of your worth when you're feelin' a little unsure, at times. I'm glad that you were able to see that others do notice you and find some sense of worth in that. When you're not feeling as though you amount to much, or however you'd describe it, please remember who you are in Christ. Any of the negative thoughts [about yourself] must go, b/c they're just not true.

    That's awesome! Kudos to you for losing the 8 pounds... but what's an NSV?

    Ok Thanks SKmellyg! I figured it was something like that, I was going with No Small Victory. LOL
