I went to my kid's Christmas concert a few days ago, and the mom of another kid came up to me and raved about how good I looked, that I lost weight, what have I been doing? How did I do it? I look so young...she was embarassing to her daughter.
I remember thinking of how I always thought she was far more beautiful and exotic than me, and now with her standing there...I thought..."you know, I am happy and that is what she is seeing. I am okay with myself and my choices and getting stronger. That is what she is perceiving, but thinks it's about my looks".
I felt a bit bad for her, she has a terrific job which probably makes 2-3x more than me, but her daughter & mine have been friends since grade 1...now both 16yrs old...has become a snotty b--ch to my kid. I also heard about how this woman treated her daughter and she is NOT happy in herself.
I said thank you and walked away....really happy with myself and confident for the first time in my life! Really ok!
