Please don't be disappointed

My mom is coming on Friday. I haven't seen her since surgery. She has been a big supporter through these last 3 months. I'm very lucky to have had her. But, I'm afraid she will be disappointed when she sees my body. She always calls and asks "what is your number" and I tell her. She is very petite and thin person-- always has been. I think in her eyes 75lbs is a HUGE amount, and it is a big amount. But to her, will she be disappointed when she sees I'm still fat? About a month or more ago, I sent her a video to show her my baggy clothes and my newly slimmer face. She called me hysterically crying. She was so proud of me. I think I was only down 50lbs at this point. I had this weird reaction to it, because I thought maybe it was a fake reaction. I couldn't see this big difference in myself. Needless to say, I'm going to squeeze into my new SPANX and hope she's not disappointed!

I went before work this morning to try and find some clothes that fit better for my mom's visit. I figured that I could show off my newly slimmer figure! I found a couple options. Thanks again all of you!

Saw my mom last night and no tears but she did keep calling me “tiny”. She said I look happier. It was very reassuring to see her! Thank you for all the support! IMG_2449.JPG
