Hi everyone, Today has had it's ups and downs but I have some wow moments to share. First......I have been wearing size 16 stretch capri's and the day of surgery I was wearing size 26 zip up with buckle. Well in March a friend who had surgery the same day gave me size 18 buckle and zip jeans. I tried them on then and could not get them past my thighs......But today, I got them buttoned and zipped and boy I thought my ass looked GOOD! So that was my first wow.... My second wow came when my daughter was on the phone with a friend who she hasn't spoken to for about 4 months and I over heard her say, "have you seen my Mom...she has lost almost 80 pounds and she is getting so small. You wouldn't beleive how tiny she is" I was beaming because in NO way am I small but since my daughter is 16 she hasn't seen me this size before! Now for my final wow---it really has nothing to do with me but made my day (in a way) My daughter Brittany who is 16 and beautiful (if I do say so myself) has been dating this guy who treats her really bad.(she doesn't see it!) He hangs out with other chicks....He doesn't show up when he says and He drinks and skips school and is just nothing but a really good looking liar. Well he broke up with her today through a text message on her phone. She was heart broken and I felt so bad for her pain (But not for the reason of her pain) ssshhhh ---she will be upset if she knows I am :jumping: I took her shopping and we both got new outfits! Please pray they do not go back out again as he really is no good. Anyway thank you for letting me vent and to share my joy! I hope you all have a good night! ~~hugs and well wishes~~ Chris

Not at all I have been thinking the same thing! This kids Mother told me he changes stories so he never looks to be at fault! He is really good looking and thinks he is the best! What an ass! Please keep your daughter away from all boys! My daughter has changed so much over the past few months because she fell in love and began making all the wrong choices! She seems to be headed the right way now though! ~~hugs and well wishes~` Chris

Congratulations on all of your wow moments! Second give your daughter a hug from me. I was in an abusive relationship with a boy in highschool... and my parents knew nothing about it until my junior year when he started hurting me in places I couldn't cover up. Fortunately I had great friends who intervened and put a hault to our relationship for me. They kept me strong and never let me look back. Almost a year later, I responded to an article about abuse in YM magazine. To my surprise, I received a phone call from one of their editor's. YM was invited to talk about teen abuse on the talk show "Attitudes" (Lifetime TV). Apparently my letter and another girl's letter were ranked as letter 1 & 2, and we were also invited to go on the talkshow. I really wanted to do this. I feel it helped me find closure and get past what I'd been through. The hard part came when I had to tell my parents "after the fact" about the abuse. My mom cried, and my dad was baffled that he didn't see it. My dad knew how important it was for me to tell "my" story, so he said he'd go with me on the talk show. So I did it, and I sware I came home a different person. Sorry to ramble... I just wanted to share my story. Thanks, Susan

Susan you gave me the goose bumps. My daughter has not been physically abused but I am sure the signs were there for it to happen. If he said jump she would ask how high? He told her how to wear her hair and who she can talk to. I am so glad he is gone now I just hope she can move forward with her life. She really is beautiful and has so much going for her! Thanks! ~~hugs and well wishes~~ Chris
