NSV - made my day!

Grocery shopping with my kids is never a pleasant experience. After picking my 13 year old son up from an event yesterday I was forced to take him with me to pick some things up for a party we were having last night.

Rather than making deserts, I decided last minute to pick up a variety of things from the bakery section of the grocery store. Everything looked wonderful and I jokingly said to my son "it's never a good idea to let me run loose in the bakery while I'm on a diet". My son replied "Uh, mom, you don't need to be on a diet anymore and should be able to eat this if you want to. Just saying..."

I have always felt bad that I was overweight when all the friends moms looked like supermodels. Hearing my son say I shouldn't be on a "diet" anymore was priceless!

You've got a great boy there. That had to feel so awesome to hear him say that.

Thanks everyone for your comments and well-wishes! It's great to be able to share successes (and failures) with others who understand. For those of you still undecided or waiting for surgery, this is without a doubt, the best thing I've done for myself.
