BEFORE
AFTERAbout 10 weeks ago, Miah and I joined Weight Watchers. I was so nervous about taking her. My ultimate fear was that she would have to say that I have been on diets since I was 10 years old. I also didn't want her to ever think that my love for her was conditional. Charles and I were however, concerned about her health. When I told her about the WW program she seemed eager to try it. She has consistently lost weight each and every week. The Friday morning class that we attend treats her like a super star! They are all so proud of her, and actually have said that she is their inspiration. She has learned what she can eat, and how to work the program for herself. She plans for special occasions, and puts me to shame with her willpower. She has lost 23.6 pounds and counting. It's been great to see her confidence soar. Miah keeps me going. Usually by now I have quit WW. But I know that my little girls health is dependent on me. That can feel heavy sometimes, but what about being a mom isn't? She has about 15 more lbs. to get to her goal weight. I have about ____ more lbs. to get to mine! LOL!

Miah, your mom can tell you...been there done that with the diet thing...you got more willpower and drive than me. You looked so awesome the other day when you came over and the most attractive part was the glow and confidence you seem to be putting off. You should be so proud of yourself. You are doing what many many many grown women have never been able to accomplish. Wear all your cute new clothes with a big cheesy grin!!!

You looked at the calories and said "Hmmm, that's a little high, Laurie." I said "mind your own buisness Miah"! You said "I'm just saying". Hee Hee, you go girl!
