I started with MFP in Jan 2012. About 8lb down, another 4 to go, went from size 10 to 6-8 (i'm 5'4"). Today in church, I was siting with my family including my 3 boys, oldest is 21. My husband was in the other side of the boys. It was dark but we introduced ourselves to the young man in front of us, late 20's or so. He asked me after church which college I went to. I was completely nonplussed until I realized that he actually thought I was in college! I told him that he would see when the lights turned on that these were my sons and husband, but he was now my new best friend :). We all had a good laugh over it as I told my sons to learn from this young man.

    Anyone who said that to me would be my best friend too! Funny story and I could see why it made you feel good. Congrats on your loss so far.

    Wow, that there is an impressive NSV. And it was probably a pick-up line, too! Happy Sunday to you.:drinker:

    Incredible... This past weekend, when I was on a college visit with my son, the cafeteria cashier thought I was a student! Must be due to all the exercising I've done over the last few months. My 18 yo always asks me to work out with him and finally i can keep up. These 50 year old abs are almost flat for the first time since first childbearing 21 years ago. It's never too late ladies!
