  • Yeah, what she said......

    I really like my self esteem now that I have begun losing after the baby. I am sure many of you are extremely "walking on air" when someone mentions something positive about you (wether it be emotionally, physcially, mentally, or just your attitude) now that you have been on the atkins wagon. Well here is mine:

    I have been getting this A LOT in the past week...

    "There is NO way you had a baby 3 months ago"

    Okay that makes me feel soooooo good. I cannot believe my attitude now. I feel like a different person. I feel as though I have confidence.

    Okay, so what about you. NAme something postive ANYONE has said about you that made you feel "lighter than air!"

    Yesterday, I was very happy because I looked good in these white pants I bought a while back as a "mini-goal" to strive for (size 16) and one of my coworkers (bless her heart) said OMG Joy, look at you, what, are you in a size 12 now??????

    I was walking on air all day!

        The one thing that sticks in my mind was one of the guys at a fence company that I deal with hadn't seen me in about a year, he said
        HOLY SH*T!!

            My bf grabbed me around the waist and said, "look you're getting a little waist". And he told me i look smaller than when we met. That's the best, especially because i know I weighed less then.

              A coworker told me yesterday I was her inspiration to take better care of herself. That did more for me than any of the skinny or looks so good these days comments ever did. It's all about our health.
              What is it, a RACE? It's coming off, right????

                How about the comments I'm NOT getting? When I was in the 180's I had a grocery store clerk say something about my GRANDdaughter. DD was about 8 yrs old. Okay, I may have been old enough to have a Granddaughter that age, but she wasn't, and I didn't appreciate it.


                Now I get, "WHAT? You have GROWN children? Get OUTTA here!" I even had the librarian tell me I looked like DD's SISTER!

                Or, "I can't picture you in size 1X." I like that one. Cuz I still can.
