I am smiling right now! The reason? My 19 year old son just walked in my office. He says "Hey mom! So, since you started losing weight and changing things around here, I've lost 12 pounds!" I said "Really?", he said that the first day I started(In February) and bought my new digital scales, he had weighed at 236 and forgotten about it. He just weighed again and was 224! I think that is cool as Hell!

    That is so awesome! It's amazing how are kids follow what we do even when we don't realize it. It just shows how much of an insipration your are to not only us but your family and probably more people than you know. It takes alot for someone to make a change in their life, especially when it requires alot of work. So kudos to you and your son for having the dedication.

    It just amazes me because yes, I have definitely changed how I cook. But, other than that, he has really done nothing different. Just eating healthier food really can make a difference, with little effort. His jeans are riding a bit lower on his butt! lol

    Thanks. But, I'm not sure that setting an example had anything to do with it. He has no choice if he wants to eat! LOL
