Compliments from strangers and friends...

I went to a local event that is touted for its food portion. I prepared and brought celery sticks and 100 grams of cooked shrimp in the case I was tempted to go off protocol.

Well, as I was leaving, a booth was set up, and these girls were eating Sonic food which I thought was weird with all the food inside. I showed them my secret weapon: celery. We all laughed, and I told them I was dieting. One girl asked what my goal weight was; I told her it is 125 to which she replied, "well, you're getting close, aren't you? Look at you all trim." Either she was full of compliments, or I look thinner than I ever have at 155 pounds. I tend to lean towards the latter, that HCG weight loss is so FAT specific that the inches lost are amazing.

Another friend dropped by today with some goodies she picked up for me at Whole Foods, and she had not seen me in a couple of weeks, and I was telling her about my compliment form a stranger to which she said, "I can see how you've lost...you look like a shadow of your former self..."

Keep the compliments coming, folks. Maybe in the next week, I'll post some progess photos!
