Shopping with mommy....

At age 25, I'm not ashamed to admit I still shop for clothes with my mother.

And by "still shop for clothes", I mean I still let her pay for them for me.

Before you label me a cheapskate, I'll point out the fact that my mother offered to buy me some new threads for my birthday, thank you very much. Which is good, because I AM a cheapskate when it comes to spending money on clothing.

It's been a while since I went shopping with my mother. In fact, I believe the last time we went shopping was Christmas of 2006. Now I recall at that time buying a few shirts in XL and XXL and buying jeans in a 44-inch waist.

Yesterday we bought a couple new shirts - size MEDIUM! - and a couple pairs of jeans - 36-inch waist! They look awesome and it's far and away the smallest size clothing I've ever worn...probably since I was like 10 years old!

I don't think anyone is prouder of the success I've had on the Herbal One program than my mom. She was always there when I was growing up struggling with obesity. She knew I had a tough time going through school and life being the size I was. She always tried to help but I never stuck to any plan so I simply just stayed obese.

Fat or thin, my mom always supported me, no matter what. That's pretty cool, considering my brother and I were such brats as kids! Mom keeps reminding me that someday I'll have brats of my own to return the favour....if that's the case we'll just drop them off at her house!

*** HERBAL ONE UPDATE***

Me weight has become a pendulum these last couple days...it's up and down all the time. Hopefully by Monday I'll be a little closer to the 200 mark. Still at 205, or 65lbs down.

Herbal One has a great summer/cottage package...you can get details at 748-9999.
