    I just read your post and it tugged on my heart strings. I thought I love how brutely honest and sweet your son was. I thought I would go and check out your page and read up on you and look at your photos. Can I just say that you are super impressive. I am about to hit the half way mark on my journey I have lost 69 lbd although my tiker does not say that cause I lost some of the weight before starting MFP and just to see the end result of such a journey was nice. Thanks for sharing your story and giving us all something to strive for.

    I assume it was tongue in cheek and he was being cheekily insulting!

    That's both sad and sweet at the same time. Sad that he'd feel that when you were overweight, and sweet that he's clearly proud of the changes. You are a hot mom! =)
    I don't think it's sad - I was 18 when I had him but for the first several years of his life, I was walking around in a body that was not only obese, it was incredibly out of shape and unable to do things that most women in their early 20's wouldn't think twice about. I was like a fat old lady even though I was young.

    Now he gets to have a mom that - regardless of how he might feel about my appearance - has the energy to jump on the trampoline with him, wrestle with him, toss him over my shoulder (even though he's about 120# and 5' tall), and do other "fun" stuff that I could never do before.

    That is so awesome that he (and his friends) recognize your weight loss. When my son was in kindergarten I went in for mommy and me tea time. One of the girls at his table says to me "Alec's mom, Alec says you are fat but I don't think so." I was horrified. Hopefully one day though his friends will think I am hot!

    What a great story, kids are brutally honest, It sounds like while you have been raising your son, you have done some raising of yourself too. Great story and you have done so well!! Take that Hot and revel in it you have worked hard to get there,

    That's awesome! It always freaks me out a little when my daughter uses the word hot, but in this case, I totally dig it!

    I know. Actually, he used the word "sexy" first but I told him that was NOT appropriate, so he changed it to "hot" instead. lol

    As the mom of two little boys, that got me teary, in a good way. You know he had to really mean it if he said it out loud. Kudos to you, hot mama!
