    I went to lunch with two of my co-workers recently. When we were leaving, we saw a retired supervisior from an associate department and stopped to visit for a short minute. She complimented me on my weight loss at that time. When I returned to the office, she had left a long message on my machine. She said she was so proud of me and that I was looking fabulous. She said whatever I was doing, to keep it up. I have never heard her ramble on so much in all the years she was at my company. She was stunned.

    My boss told me last week I was the 'silent leader' of our team.

    My high school PE teacher said I had a 'real talent' for running and I should keep at it. I didn't, until recently, but those words never left me.

    Lots and lots of supportive people in my life through the years have offered generalities (you are smart, you are pretty, etc) but those specific praises really stick in my head the most.

    I dont if it is the nicest, but it is the most recent.

    I was as the store buying something for my Halloween costume, and the cashier looks at me and says. "You are so tall and slender, you are so lucky you can pull it off."

    I went to my car and sat in the front seat and cried a little, because she was talking about me....and it felt really really f@cking good.

    The nicest? Hmm, why is it all the shallow things come to mind first?


    Well on a love note : hubby told me he would never remarry. He also said he thinks I gave him a thang for one arm girls, and crushes on any celeb that reminds him of me.

    My sisters have said many things that were quite flattering. But I think I have trouble saying too many positives out loud. I have a pet peeve as much against whiners as I do braggers.

    Thanks for this thread though. Its nice to think of positive things.

    I've had a total stranger tell me that I'm gorgeous recently. That was a HUGE ego boost because even when I was thin I've never felt gorgeous. It's probably not the nicest thing anyone has ever said, but it did have a major impact.

    A friend from high school posted as his Facebook status that if anyone knew a better person than me to say so. While I don't think I'm "better" than anyone else, aside from pedo's and rapists..., it was an awfully nice thing for him to say.

    A gay dude tried to get my number. I didn't think I was in that kinda shape yet. I was flattered and throwing up a little bit at the same time.

    "You are half the size you were"

    "Give me a hug- you've lost a whole person"

    "That shirt is inappropriate-it's too big"

    "Mom you should post before and after pictures because you have changed so much."

    My daughter and son-in-law completed the couch to 5K program and told me that they were inspired to do it because of me! I was stunned.

    At a Walgreens the attractive cashier asked if I wanted to buy a candy bar to benefit some cause. I said, "I really try to avoid sugar" and she said; "That's why you're so georgous" I was so shocked I think I almost passed out.

    That is awesome! That reminds me of something that happened about 5 years ago.
    I came back to my desk after lunch and a fortune from a fortune cookie was sitting on my keyboard.
    It said, "Your smile will brighten someone's day."
    No one confessed to putting it there and to this day I have NO idea who it was. However, that fortune to this day is still taped to the front of one of my monitors at my desk.

    When I tell people I've lost over 120lbs I get "Where did you stick an extra 120 lbs?"

    Last night I had a guy ask me why I wasn't smiling at work, he said he comes in every night because he enjoys seeing my smiling face. I thought that was sweet.

    This one is a little morbid but I've been told that when I die I should have my eyes removed and put in a jar for the world to see because I have gorgeous eyes.

    OH My son this is the best!!! He told me that I am the most gorgeous girl he has ever seen before. I know he is only 9 and things will change but that was so sweet! I jokingly told him once that I was sick of trying and was just gonna get fat again, and he told me that he hopes I'm joking because I am to pretty to do that.
