I work in a bank and a lady in her 20's was staring at me as she queued to get her money out.She then came over to me to apologise for staring but she couldn't believe how much weight I'd lost and that she had seen me last week and had gone straight home to tell her boyfriend about it.
This in turn inspired her (her words not mine) to go to the gym to start losing weight too!! I am by far not finished with this journey as I need to lose another 70lbs but I'd be happy with abother 40lbs, and I 've never stepped foot in a gym in my life but if it inspires others, so be it!!

    Love it! I work as a Customer Service Manager at our local Walmart. I have customers come up to me, almost on a daily basis, to tell me how good I look. Some of them, I really don't even remember seeing before. That's after 84lbs and reaching/surpassing my goal weight and averaging a weight of 127 now. :happy:
    Way to inspire!!!!

    It is so amazing that you can touch someone else like that and help her get motivated. That has to be the ultimate confidence booster and motivator!
