Unexpected NSV

This is less about me and more about my family. My teenage son is active and at a healthy weight, but my bad food choices still affected him, and I felt like I was setting him up for adult failures by eating take-out, soda, etc, all the time.

Well, after 4 months of healthy home-cooked dinners, my son cracked open a can of chef boyardee for a snack yesterday and immediately said "eugh, I really don't like these any more."

Even more so than the scale, that let me know that I'm doing the right thing.

    great job! that's a wonderful, long-lasting NSV (until he starts calling you from college - well, not you, your husband - and convinces your husband to promise to get home-made dinners mailed to him)...

    thank god my oldest is coming home this weekend - the postage charges are killing me ;)
