Default "She's lost 18 pounds so far... yeah, she's really working hard!"

This is what I overheard my mom say to my oldest sister on the phone last night. I'm really, really happy about that!

It is really great to hear... especially from my mom! She's even decided to start eating better. She went through the cabinets a couple days ago and threw away a bunch of cookies, crackers, chips and sugary drinks. Go Mom!

First of all, congratulations on 19 pounds lost! (I saw your ticker said 19...)

But how amazing it must have been to overhear someone talking about you in such a positive way!

YAY!!! While she's at it, she should yell at your brother for saying things he shouldn't say!

It feels wonderful to get that pat on the back from time to time, especially when it's from someone who is important to us. Good for you!
