    edited January 2 in Success Stories
    I just had a lovely experience, walking out of the supermarket with my husband just now, we met an old friend that I haven't seen for a couple of years. He was so surprised by how I looked that he blurted out, 'What have you done? You look fantastic.' When I said I had lost a stone and a half and that was it really he got all embarrased and started to apologise for mentioning it, but he didn't really need to because it made my day.

      I love it when that happens, especially when they have to look twice before they actually recognise you. Congratulations on a great NSV.

      Good for you! I saw my chiropractor after 10 months and 3 stone lighter, and he said "I'm not being rude, but man have you lost a lot of weight!" It's a great feeling isn't it?

      It makes you wonder how many people notice and don't say anything at all out of worry for offending. I think for every one comment I get there are three that went unsaid. It's a great feeling :-)

      Thanks everyone for replying and crumbs well done all of us for all the pounds we have sent packing! I agree, I think lots of people don't like to mention it when they think you have lost weight, they only do so when they are genuinely surprised into it.
