    If you see them looking at you, you're looking at them, and maybe they feel the same. I tend not to make eye contact unless it's with someone I deliberately want to.

    Sometimes you just feel the eyeballs on you and when you glance up, its like they just saw their long lost daughter.

    Well, I went to your profile and you just stared at me without blinking for at least a minute. I am not sure what to think. Maybe I should put some clothes on.

    LOL

    I've found that a lot of different people (men and women) keep staring at me when I walk by. Don't know if it's good or a bad thing and sometimes I just want to turn around and tell them what the hell are they staring at.
    So what do YOU do?

    If it's making me uncomfortable, like they look like a panting dog after a steak.... I tend to belch, Make a weird face, pretend like I'm picking my nose, or some other oft putting behavior. If nothing else it gives ME a giggle. Otherwise, if it's just them watching as I walk past, I smile and nod and keep on truckin'

    I look back, give a little smile and put an extra swing in my hips.

    They're looking for a reason so I give them a little something extra.

    You take it with honor and be thankful you are easy on the eyes!:love:

    I don't have before pics that show what I started at, I was around 195 pushing 200 and certainly didn't want anyone to be looking my way. Now I am breezy, slowly into the 150 mark and yes, I get the looking...not that I noticed it first off, it was my husband who brought it to my attention.

    We were walking after dinner one night and he started saying, "you are gonna have to stop this or some guys are gonna die." I was like, "wth are you talking about? Stop what?" He said, "this working out and looking in shape thing (with a laugh)." Then I started to see what he meant and I just smiled. I told him, "Well you can look at this way, at least you are with someone that looks good enough for others to look at and should be proud that you have a wife that wants to look good for you." So with anything, you can always find a positive way to handle it. I then told him, "just so we have this straight, if I have to pick between not working out and working out, well working out is gonna win, so you might want to get used to that and maybe carry a bigger stick!" lol

    People are all gonna look when you start a transformation that changes your body...I say embrace it and love every minute of it. You know they are looking because you are doing something that makes a difference in the perceived views of our society :flowerforyou:
