An NSV I may never top!

So I took my kids to the y to swim. For yrs I have worn a shirt while swimming. I stood in the locker room deciding if I would go sans shirt. Back an forth back and forth my mind argued with itself. Finally i decided why not! So with slightly trembling hands I tossed the shirt in the locker grabbed my 4 yr olds hand and heade to the pool. My other 3 were already out there. So as I come out of the locker room my 13 yr old son is walking back in. He stops, and gets this funny look on his face and says "ok dad, 1st (at this point my heart is running to hide as I soo have carry guilt about my weight embarrassing my kids) ... 1st you have lost ALOT of weight!!!! 2nd you look Great!!" an then he smiled this goofy 13 yr old my Dad rocks smile. I almost cried! Very manly tears of course. :-)

how cool is that DAD!!!! That must of been the best compliment ever! And from a 13 year old at that! Wow you must of been really proud! Good for you! Keep it up and keep up with sans Tshirt!

That's great! I take my grandkids to Water Country & I am looking forward to next year not needing a T-shirt.

Once I lose my weight I already told everyone to call before they come over because I will be naked...
