Flattery Will Get You Everywhere

There is nothing more motivating for your weight loss than compliments.

I mean there are other factors that should motivate me. There's the benefit to my health. There's the little sticker I get from Weight Watchers. There's the ability to fit, without gasping, into pre-pregnancy clothes.

But those all pale in comparison to one or two sincere compliments.

Chris Rock said it best: "Women need three things: food, water, and compliments."

I got two this week. It just felt really good for someone to acknowledge my hard work.
