Hello all you lovely people, I am a very happy bunny right now. Although I shouldn't be as our washing machine has decided that it doesn't like it's job so much and wants to do something different with it's life at the moment, maybe being a door stop or something in the city..
So Hubby and I went to the local Currys (UK electrical superstore) to take a look at washing machines, when we were there my husband noticed that one of the salesmen is an ex boyfriend of our oldest Daughter, a nice chap who we got on well with when they dated about 4 years ago. So being a friendly guy, he walks over and says hello, I then go over and say hello too and he says 'oh my god! I didn't know that was you! I didn't even recognise you! You have lost so much weight, you look great!'
tada
Happy me!!!
Don't care about the washing machine being a diva, or that it is going to cost us money we really don't have, I feel fabulous!!!

That is awesome! I love the quote about being as beautiful as your husband thinks you are!0

Yes I'd be smiling as well, what a lovely feeling. By the way I love your quote about your husband.
Very well done on what you have acheived :flowerforyou:0 -
You are FUNNY! And inspirational! Good for you! You should be smiling!! YOU ROCK!0

awesome - that is great - I am looking forward to the day when someone comments like that to me - it will come and come soon !0

thank you!!
The 'quote' is not a quote really, it's my own feelings about this journey. I actually am doing this for me alone, because my Husband adores me whatever I look like, although he is hugely proud of what I have done, and I am of him (he is doing MFP too, in fact right now he is on his exercise bike) and we support each other and I think that is why we are able to do this.
Aren't we ALL as gorgeous as someone who loves us thinks we are? My children used to think I was the worlds best Mummy, so I was, to them. Life is about the people who we share it with I think, and what they think of who we are. It's not about what people we don't know think, I don't care what they think really, but it is nice to get checked out, a boost for the ego, But I was happy when I wasn't getting that too.0 -
Happy for you,,

Your washing machine description was so funny! Thanks for a good laugh this morning and for a great story. Isn't it amazing how just one comment outside your circle of friends can really make your day? You worked hard and deserved that compliment. I hope it affirmed all you have done to get to your weight loss goals, that comment alone is worth more than all the chocolate at Hersheys.0

thank you all for your nice comments and the postive things you said.
I am very happy, I feel that it gave me the boost I needed, having been suffering with an 'almost goal' hiatus and a post Christmas - post flu slump and lack of motivation, I suddenly feel that I should get back on the horse so to speak.
Right, back off to the river to bash the dirty laundry on some rocks.0 -
Wow....amazing!! (except for the washing machine part...LOL)0
