Do Women Enjoy Flattery?
Really I am not one to be moved by flattery BUT here lately it has put a smile on my face. I think it is because for 35 years I have been ashamed of my appearance and I really didn't deserve to be flattered. To be honest I just didn't like myself.
This past weekend my nephew was in town for the first time in several months. All our family was at a baseball game. There were over 25 of us at the game so there was a lot of chattering going on. I heard this voice say well hello skinny. At first I was looking around for the skinny one but my sister laughed and said "I am talking to you". I said ohhhh thank you and we both laughed. Then not long after that my nephew made his way over and said " I almost didn't recognize you or I would have been over sooner to give you hug". He went on to say "You have wasted way to nothing".
NOW that was an exaggeration but it sure made me feel good.
I encourage you if you are suffering from being overweight and struggling with low self esteem or depression it is not to late to do something about it. I still have 100 pounds to lose. But with the 70 pounds I have lost, I feel like a new person even though I am still overweight.
If you have a lot of weight to lose don't focus on how much you have to lose, set your goal to lose
10 pounds at a time.
Until Next Time ..... Keep Smil'n and Stay Healthy!!!
