Maggie May Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 These were the words spoken to me by my mother last night. And today, a coworker just asked me, "so how much weight have you lost now?"I haven't really lost any (not much) weight. I've been lifting lots of weights though. It's the little things... woot!

weirdquark Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 Woot!I finally traded in the concert dress that I got two and a half years ago to sing with the local chorus for one in a smaller size -- the woman in charge of the dresses could not believe I had been wearing the size I had (when I got the first dress she was the one who picked out the size) and wanted to know if I had been starving myself to lose that much weight. I said, no, I've been lifting weights. Quote I lift heavy things. Current Challenge Between Challenges Workout Log Sassafrass: a capella folk fantasy mythology Link to comment
Gar Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 Wow...the little things is right. Congrats -This sounds like a whole other thread..."What was the first compliment or indication that someone noticed your improvement that you received, and how did you react?" Quote Link to comment

spatzcat Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 my butt keeps getting rounder and i think bigger. the consensus is that is a good thing, but whatever. some people prefer the "badonkadonk". ahahahahahhaa. Quote Never let your fear decide your fate. Link to comment
Shortkaik Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 Woot! Such a motivator to know that people are seeing changes, even if you can't see them so much yourself.See, now I recently had a friend tell me the opposite - your butt looks bigger! Which was totally a compliment for me, because I've always had a total flat-butt and I'm proud to now be reaping the benefits of all that squatting. Just more proof that we've all want to lose/gain in different ways and places! Quote Mmm... kaik.Twitter - flickr Link to comment
