Does anyone else get this?
It's a term I made up so I don't know if it's accurate, but I think it describes how I feel
I'm about halfway through my weight-loss journey, and it's taken about 5 months so far. After about 3/4 months, people at work not only started to notice a difference, but openly started to comment, which I'll admit I quite liked
I also liked the attention and questions I was getting.
Now there are three other people in my office 'dieting', two of them following Slimming World, and the comments in the kitchen are all about how they've 'lost 7lbs', and 'can you see a difference?'. Another two people have told me they now want to lose weight as well!
I know I should feel proud of the influence I've had, and it should be inspiring, but a small, nasty part of me still wants all the attention and praise
On a serious note, it's incredible how much of an impact that a close-up and personal weight loss can have on those around you, and really it's a fantastic feeling to know that I have had a part to play in several people changing their eating habits
