We attended a wedding for one of my husband's friends on Saturday. He is one of those people that always seems serious and you can't really tell when he's joking (even though it's almost always, haha). Being that I am fairly quiet, we had only had a few conversations.

When we were getting ready to leave and saying our goodbyes, he gave me a hug (completely unexpected) and told me I looked great. I uttered a quiet "thanks" and grinned from ear to ear. I felt wonderful about how I looked before that (my profile photo), but that just made my day.

Just thought I'd share =)

    Everything positive about changes you have made or what physically people notice are indeed great victories! We forget that others notice. Congratulations!

    The scale can move, clothes can shrink, but a compliment can make it all worth it!

    It is always nice to hear a compliment from someone, especially when you have been working very hard to improve yourself. Congrats and keep up the good work!

    That's huge! I love it that people notice and say something. I know it won't last forever, because all the new people I meet will only know me this way, but it sure feels good to get noticed for the right reasons!!!

    Cute outfit.. BTW.... and you look amazing!!!
