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

Good for you! Doesn't it make it so much easier when you know that other people know just how hard you are working at it!!!!

Congratulations! It's nice to hear it from someone else, isn't it?

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!

Wow, that's a victory for you and your mom! Way to go!

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!

You are awesome! It must feel incredible to have inspired your mom to make some changes. You just keep amazing me-cant wait to see what you do next!!

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

yay! congratulations and good job on your success!

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!

Congratulations! Its always nice to have someone notice and talking about how wonderful it is on top of it!

Woohoo!

Yay Lydia! How wonderful ! I am thrilled for you! Congratulations!!!

I am so happy for you, Lydia. How wonderful that your mother is also following your example... Good for you.
