Hi and TGIF fellow Medifasters!!

Sorry I'm whining again , but I have been so frustrated with the stall, yet I plug along sticking to the plan because I know it's working. I feel great and you ALL inspire me.

But....today....a lady I haven't seen in 2 weeks that knows I'm doing MF saw me and said....OMG, you ARE shrinking!! Let me tell you, I needed that really bad!! I feel so much better about the stall. We all need those encouraging words at times and it was just what the doctor ordered for me today. Thank you Medifast!!!

I wish you all a wonderful and healthy weekend!

NOthing like a compliment like that to really make your day huh? You really are shrinking and many more will be telling you that soon!

Sue, isn't that the best feeling? I got one of the same type compliments this week. Even though I know I'm sticking to plan and that my clothes are falling off, somehow hearing it from others serves as some sort of validation.

I'm so happy that you are doing well. I keep watching your ticker and I've noticed you're counting down until the wedding! I can't wait to see a photo of you in that red dress!

Have a great day!

It is always great when someone notices the work you're doing!

I know MF is easy, but it is tough mental work!

Way to go!

That's the best feeling, isn't it? I saw some relatives I hadn't seen in a while after I lost about 20 pounds, and they didn't notice at all. I was crushed!!! But now people's jaws drop. I swear, I don't think you ever get tired of that.

Way to go!!

Sue -

Congrats on the notice -- it will become its very own addiction and it so much better than food!

You dress is going to look HUGE on you! WOO HOO!!!

Thanks you guys!!

I appreciate the feedback. I am on the shy side in person and not one to fish for compliments in any way, shape or form. We all love compliments, no doubt about it, but that's not why I was so happy today.

Maybe it's because I have always been so self concious of being overweight. Also, my ex husband whom I have been divorced from for 10 years had no problem telling me how unattractive I was because I was overweight. No sympathy needed, I'm over it and his negativity. I know I'm a good person and deserve to be treated kindly if I am fat, thin, etc. My sweet Mom who passed away 4 months ago also made negative comments about my weight. I know she loved me and meant well, but they hurt.

The comment today felt good because it was a validation for the dedication I have following with my MF program. AND I am doing the MF for ME, no one else. My fiance' loves me just as I am, but I want to be healthier and more attractive for myself and him.

I hope I'm making sense. Sorry to ramble on.
Thanks again, you guys rock!!

Hugs,
Sue

Ah hem.....I think a little of that happiness may stem from the fact that if my calculations are correct you will be a blushing bride just 3 weeks from tomorrow!!!! WTG girlfriend you are the bomb!!!!!

Well get used to it! .. This is only the begining of many more comments!

[Nancy]

That's awesome! Sure makes ya feel gladsome - sortta like a cat rolling in catnip, eh?

It's neat that your friend told you that she noticed your fantastic weight loss and didn't keep it to herself like Robin's relatives...I know how THAT feels -

Sue's gonna sizzle in that red dress!

[SueInSLO]

Thank you all for the encouraging words!!
Countdown to the big day!!!!!

I really do appreciate it! Keep those good thoughts coming! The red dress is still a little bit snug!! Panic time!!!


Time to increase the abs workout this next couple of weeks and some upper arm light weights!! Gotta try and tighten up the jiggle a little.

Thanks again and keep shakin'!!!!!!!!!!!

Feels good, huh? It's funny how we can be compliant, see the scale go down, fit into smaller clothes, feel better and healthier, and yet when others notice- - it really feels great.

Your pics in the studio look great, since you can tell there, I bet it's even more noticeable now.

Keep it up Sue, 'cause the compliments have only just begun.
