even a total stranger said something

Hey everyone,
So I was at the GNC tonight picking up some of that Isopure and a sub-lingulal B12 (although my blood work doesn't look like I really need one).  And the sales guy, a total stranger - asked me "Sir, have you lost weight recently?".  I said,"Yes I have".  He replied "that's great - I can really tell".

Now I suppose it was because I was wearing a size 20" business shirt and I am now down to an 18".  I was wearing my "new" size 48" pants however I really should be wearing a 46".  And I guess the belt I was wearing had 4 new hole*****ed in so it had extra slack after the buckle.  Either way - I  either looked like a kid wearing their parents clothing or this guy in incredibly perceptive.

Either way - I took it as a complement. 

I gotta stop wearing the fluffy clothes.....

Smileycons!

You should take it as a complement and should feel really good about yourself! 

I too need to stop wearing the so called fluffy clothes but I'm so used to it.  I picked up a cute shirt for myself the other day and I bought it in a size too big.  Now when I wear it..It looks like I'm swimming in it.  It's really hard to break those old comfort clothes habits.

Keep up the good work!

Instead of complaining that the rosebush has thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses.

Compliments are a big ego booster to all of us on our journey and I'm so glad you got one from a stranger - wow!! And I doubt it was the big clothing - bet he saw you in there before and noticed. Enjoy every moment of it - I savor those compliments and store them for when I'm not feeling so great about my weight loss or myself - they can really brighten your day then!!

Yeah, gotta get rid of the fluffy clothes - so you can see it in yourself, too - its amazing what a difference it can make in your mirror.

Greg,
Maybe the GNC guy saw you in the store before and noticed that you are thinner.
Either way - take the compliment and revel in it.
