Ahem.

For those of us on this weight loss journey I have discovered the sure fire way to kick start compliments on your new healthier body!

1. Join MFP
2. Watch your calories (stay within your desired deficit)
3. Exercise
4. While doing all this DO NOT BUY NEW CLOTHES to fit your new body. This is important!
5. When you've lost so much weight you can remove your pants without unbuttoning/zipping them just by taking a deep breath... buy pants that fit properly.
6. ????
7. COMPLIMENTS!

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
I seriously need to cut out the caffeine don't I?

    I agree! I never have worn tight fitting clothes (well since I was a skinny teenager anyways) and have lost almost 20 lbs so far and no one but my husband & co-worker (that knows I'm trying to lose weight) has noticed. I completely think this is the reason and have already purchased an outfit (it fits but SUPER tight) as motivation! I can't wait till it fits nicely and I can show off my hard work!

    I know what you mean, I have lost just over 20lbs now and the only people that have noticed or said anything are those that know that I have been trying to loose. I think I am loosing it all over at once so no dramatic inches lost yet, but my pants are looser and my tops aren't so clingy.

    OMG!!! I thought I was crazy!! I've lost 20 lbs (since Jan 5th) and the same goes for me. Only the people who know I have lost it have noticed. A woman at work has been on medical leave since that day. She just got back on Monday and when I told her that I have lost 20 lbs she says "I guess I didn't pay that much attention to you to begin with. Yeah, I guess I can see it in your face." Gee, thanks!! :grumble:

    Hey guys, this method seriously works. Haha.

    I've been wearing my big pants at work since I started trying to lose weight. Just a few days ago I bought pants that fit and sauntered into work and the compliments have been rolling in like crazy! I was startled, I honestly didn't think anyone would notice.

    ;)

    Hey Eriny, amen to that dress code!!!!
