"Hey Skinny!"

Posted on November 20, 2009 by Leah@MyNewEnding

Yesterday at school a teacher’s aid asked me if I was losing weight. I told her, “Yes, I am and thank you for noticing!”

She said it was “really noticeable” when she walked in the room and saw me. I explained that it’s been a slow process, but changes are being made and I do feel better.
Of course, you know that made my day. 🙂
Well, today I was at the school for about an hour as Mom, instead of substitute and the same teacher’s aid sees me and says, “Hey Skinny!!”
I just laughed! I know at 209.5 lbs I am NOT skinny.
She gushed again about how it’s so noticeable and I look great. I giggled and thanked her again for her kind words.
Silly lady. She’s definitely a friend I’ll have to keep around! 🙂
