WOW... I think ???

  I was overwhelmed by my little girl yesterday. They see me everyday so I hardly hear any comments about my weight loss from them. As my little one and I were walking into The Ymca she says " Mom, are you still trying to lose weight?" Yes I said. She then says " Mom you are changing too much, I am tired of you changing, you look skinny enough you don't need to lose more weight." Well needless to say that brought a wave of mixed emotions. One pride that she noticed my loss, two that she thinks I am ok the way I am then the part of her being tired of me changing. I wasn't sure how to take that.  I guess you have to take the good with the bad but for me I am not done losing. The fact that she called me "skinny" yes I am still beaming about that one ! 

What a gift, she was sharing!! And holding a big girl conversation how sweet is that, so caring..... MySpace Comments Hugs Barb

Thanks Barb. Yea I have two special little girls.

What a wonderful thing she said to you, I would for sure take that as a WONDERFUL WOW moment. Shows even if we don't think people (family) haven't noticed our changes/weight loss they are paying attention. Keep up the good work! You've earned bragging rights!!!!

Thank you Donna !

My advice...Take it as a compliment!  RJ tells me everyday I am getting too skinny.  And when you think about, he has never seen me as small as I am now!  So thats a good thing! Speaking of...I now weigh less than I did in 6th grade.  Thats 32 years ago !  I weighed in this morning at 249!!!!!!  I have not seen you since my surgery.  Please tell me you will be there on Saturday!!!!!!!

Awesome Scott ! You had a great WOW as well.  Yes I will be there Saturday. I have missed seeing everyone. I signed up for my coupon you told us about but have not received mine yet but I will still be there. Can't wait to see your amazing transformation !

That is totally a great compliment!  I am happy for you, Juanita...  its kind of like when your children grow tall but you don't notice cause you see them every day...  others notice and say "Wow they are getting big!"  Then one day you look , and wonder, "How did I miss that?" Only you're not getting bigger.  You're getting tiny! lol Congrats!

Thanks Melinda. I don't know if I will ever reach the tiny category but I am feeling good !! : )

What a WOW moment. She probably asked the question because she's is relating exercise only with weight loss, because thats the history she draws from. C' Ya Bob
