298.1 | on feeling great... | JJM::ASBURY | | Tue Jun 07 1988 09:01 | 11 |
| Like probably most (if not all) dieters, I feel great when someone
notices the results of my hard work! It's great when I see people
I haven't seen since about 20 pounds ago...They say such nice things
and I become re-motivated to "keep up the good work"!
I also feel great when I go clothes shopping and have to go back
out to get a *smaller* size than the one I first took into the dressing
room!

| Having my Dr. say "Wow! You dropped your cholesteral by 70 points
in six weeks. What did you do?" Add to this the ease with which
I can now climb hills on by bike. Feels great.

298.4 | compliments always help :-) | ARGUS::CORWIN | I don't care if I AM a lemming | Tue Jun 07 1988 15:07 | 11 |
| It's been such a "long time" since I've lost (most) of my weight that it is
pretty rare that I receive comments these days. I had lunch with a couple of
people I hadn't seen in a "longer time", and one of them was suitably
impressed. :-) I was amused at the way he was trying to say that I was a bit
heavier last time he saw me without insulting me, you know? :-)
OK, I'll admit that I was really looking forward to seeing these people
and hearing what they had to say :-) :-).

I feel good when I have friends that take me as I am.
I feel good when someone says Hey you are looking good
and Keep up that good work... It shows ..
I feel good when a person from this Note file gives
me the Support when I fail and he always helps me on
my feet again..
I feel Great just getting up and I'am Alive..

| I too feel great when (lately) I can reach faaaarrr in my closet
and get those old skirts out that I used to wear 2 years ago and
even better because they aren't out of style!
What I don't like is when someone say "have you lost weight?" and
you didn't. If anything you have gained 10 pounds! What are they
saying, that you were even heavier 8 months ago!

298.7 | Feelin' FINE! | RAVEN1::D_PAINE | | Wed Jun 08 1988 12:04 | 10 |
| I feel GREAT when I can sit down and look down at my legs, and they
aren't as widely SPREAD out as they used to be!! (You know how fat
they look when your legs are squished FLAT as you're sitting down?)
What also makes me feel good is that my mother has gotten to the
point where she notices my results...and she has started following
my methods (discretely!!!:-))!!

298.8 | It feels good! | THOTH::MCNEIL | | Wed Jul 20 1988 14:59 | 21 |
| I just had a pretty good experience last week.
I went downstairs and pulled out some old clothes that have been
packed away for 2 years to see how much more weight I needed to
lose before I could get back into them,(I lost 12 lbs recently).
Well.....its turns out I got back into EVERYTHING!!! 7 pairs of
jeans that I have not been able to wear in 2 years! My wardrobe
just grew without spending a cent. I love it! And now, I still
have boxes down there with clothes from 4 years ago (I keep
everything) that I hope to start looking though in another month
or 2.....(they are a couple MORE sizes smaller)
And as everyone says....the comments are wonderful!
There is no stopping now!!!
(Just wish I had done it in February to be ready for the bathing
suit weather....but hey....better late than never right?) Theres
always NEXT summer.
