"Remember when I used to be Fat?"

Today I went into the Subway I worked at when I was 16 and ordered a Party Sub for my Son's First Birthday party. I saw my old Boss, and a skinny version of a Lady I used to work with.
I will call her "T" to protect her privacy. Anyway, T was making a Sandwich and I just stared at her for a few moments. I mean, she looked awesome! She has had 5 kids, and the last time I saw her she was pushing 300lbs.
She is down to 145lbs! She looked at me and smiled. I was like, "Wow T! You look skinny!" She smiled even bigger and said Thank you. I knew it was a big compliment. I can't wait for people to tell me I look skinny.
She continued to help a customer and when she came to take my party sub order she said, "Remember when I used to be Fat?" I asked her what she was doing to lose the weight. She said.."Hard work."
How true is that? I am so super proud of her. She was so excited it gave me a little boost.
