NSV: Mom noticed!

So I've only been at this for about a month, which is why my mom's comment made me pretty excited. She has been trying to lose weight for some time now and I've been encouraging her to get on this website. We were talking about it today and she said "Maybe I should just do what you do. Then I'll be a skinny mini like you. I really can see a huge difference now compared to a few weeks ago in how you look."
I was surprised at the comment, but excited as well. It's nice when someone notices the hard work, even if it was just my mom. Haha. It kind of gave me an extra boost of motivation that I needed (:

  • Mom noticing is the best! Because they are honest and don't just tell you what you want to hear. GREAT JOB!!

    My mom is the greatest, she asks me to text her a progress photo every Monday night and then compliments me like "your face is getting thinner" or something like that. Even if I'm wearing a tshirt and shorts in the picture and you can't really see anything, she finds something nice to say and it's always what I need to hear! I think that a compliment coming from someone like your mom (or another person you're really close with) is the ultimate because they will be totally honest with you!
