Slightly embarrassing NSV: One of the first people to notice

julies90

The other day i was leaving church with my fiancé, and as we were walking to his car, one of the men from church was sitting in his truck talking to a few other guys, and he leaned over as i walked by, and said "Hey Julie! How much weight HAVE you lost! You look amazing!"
I was so embarrassed and went beat red, and proceeded to mutter something about 20 pounds and hide my face.
It was embarrassing but I was still thrilled that somebody noticed. Even if it was the dairy farmer...the last person I ever would have thought to notice something like that :laugh:

Just FYI....he's probably not the first person to actually NOTICE..he's just the first to step up and say something! A lot of people (especially men) are hesitant to comment on your body because they're worried about offending you.

Congrats on your success..great job!

That's completely true.... nearly no one told me that I lost weight until the conversation somehow got to it....

BTW just a little tip. Show a little more confidence... you wrote that you were embarrassed when the man asked you, that's not the right attitude... You lost 20 pounds it obviously shows, you worked hard on it so you should be proud and give a little credit to yourself.

Keep up the good work!
