First of all, my mum-in-law is a lovely lady, we're friends and we do not follow the stereotypical relationship in which we are required to hate each other because we both happen to love the same guy a lot.
I haven't seen her in about 2 months we invited her for lunch -a massive 2000 kcal Sunday Roast- and gardening/knitting help (Yes... I share hobbies with a woman 25 years older than me, okay?).
The moment she saw me, her jaw dropped, but she's a classy lady and kept herself composed. After a while, she pulled me aside and asked me if I was okay and all that jazz, explaining that she was worried. I didn't know it at the time, but apparently a whole bunch of women in her family have a history of anorexia/bulimia and she panicked a little when she saw her favourite (and only) daughter-in-law 50lbs lighter.
When I explained that I am counting calories, running and lifting, she laughed, gave me a bone-crushing hug, told me I looked fabulous and asked me to explain the magic behind the fact that I somehow manage to lose weight and eat cake. She said she wants to try it.
She's the first person to really really notice my weight loss. And it feels amazing!
