Work Colleague NSV

Hi All,

I thought I'd share this, I must admit when it first happened I thought not a lot of it, but now I realise that my weight loss is not only affecting me, but the people around me.

I was talking to a colleague about the 'motivators' that have kept me going through the past year (weddings, birthday parties, holidays etc) and this year I don't have anything to 'lose weight' for. I understand that my health is a big reason, but I'll be honest, my health has improved significantly since starting this journey so I'm not too fussed about losing slowly.

Anyway, I digress.

I think my exact words were, 'I no longer have anything to lose weight for.'

She looked rather upset with me and replied, 'That's a shame.'

About an hour later when we were in the office on our own she came over to me and said, 'Oi missy, you can't stop losing weight, you are doing so well and you have got your goals to hit and you've inspired me to stick to it because I see you going to the gym and saying no when they come round with the chocolate and biscuits; you can really see the difference, I promise you. Because you are doing so well, it makes me want to keep at it too.'

At the time I thought to myself 'Aww, that's nice.' But then when I do go to the gym or say no to cakes etc or literally just have one instead of a pile (excluding this weekend where it went horrendously wrong for me) I think about the example I'm setting; and it makes me feel quite proud.

Have you inspired anyone to join ou on the journey? And isn't it an amazing feeling?
