Compliments Can Go A Long Way
The other day I went shopping with my mother at a local dress shop. Like many stores, it was divided by Regular sizes and plus sizes. Me, being the frugal shopper that I am naturally gravitated towards the clearance rack, even though it was on the “Plus Size Side” of the store and I knew that most of the clothes would be too big.
Sales clerks who naturally like to talk to you and help you find stuff are always coming up to talk to you. As I told the sales clerk I was just browsing, she said,
“Honey, you know you’re on the wrong side of the store, don’t you?”
I told her that was one of the best compliments I’ve recieved so far and thanked her, explaining I had recently lost a good bit of weight and only a few months ago this would have been the right side of the store!
Even my in-laws noticed how much weight I had lost while at my daughter’s birthday party yesterday. If you can squeeze a compliment out of your in-laws, you must look good!
It’s so nice to hear these things so if you have been trying to lose weight, it’s worth it to continue eating healthy and exercising. And if you know someone who has been trying to lose weight or working out, be sure you tell them “You Look Fantastic!”
Those few little words can go a long way!
