A few weeks ago when I was picking my 7 year old daughter up from school, she pointed to one of the other moms and said, "see her mom, you look exactly like her and she's not fat"!
Then yesterday, we were shopping, I had my back to her and when I looked up to find her she had a scared look on her face. She said, "oh mom, you're getting so skinny I didnt recognize you"! I think she was looking for me for a few seconds and didn't know it was me right beside her. Poor girl. I scared her. Makes me feel good though!
I've been a little down since the new year because the scale has been moving very slow. But I did start using my new Pilates machine, so I guess the inches are still coming off.
I have to say, this is a far cry from the child, who a year ago, while looking in the mirror asked, "mom, am I gonna look like you when I grow up? I said, "I don't know why? She said, "because mom, I just can't be fat! Broke my heart.
I had this sergury for many reasons, my kids being the main one. Glad to say, i made the right choice.
