Toddles are the worst sometimes. They always target the thing you-re insecure about. I had a kid point out that I had a hairy belly because I have some light hair trailing down below my belly button. Or they-ll call out my hairy legs. My nephew once made it sound like it hadn-t brushed my teeth in forever just because I-d just finished eating and there was some food in my teeth. The embarrassment I felt that day. The little girl might have embarrassed you but it was a good wake up call. Happy to see you-re doing well.

It's funny what ends up motivating you. I put on almost 100 lbs with our 3rd baby. Its caused plenty of health issues and all that and I thought that's enough, I'm gonna get fit again. But I never stuck to it. Then one day I had to grab something that fell behind the couch. It was hard but I did it. My middle child then congratulated me because he assumed I was -way too fat- to fit behind the couch. His thumbs up cruuuuuushed me. I've lost about 60 lbs since then.

My wake up call started from going clothes shopping and I could only find one top that looked flattering enough - size 18. I bought it home, tried it on, and realised how ugly the top looked and how it couldn't hide the rolls at all! And then, I started to feel frustrated about my feet being so painful - it was because my weight upon my 5ft 2 frame was too much on the tendons in my feet.
Four years later, I'm now size 8

Great job! How tall are you? In the picture where you were your heaviest, you don't look like you weighed as much as you said you did. That's why I'm asking your height. If you were 407 pounds and lost 217 pounds, that would mean that you now weigh 190 pounds. On a short woman that wouldn't look good but on you, you look normal. I myself am 5'9- and 190 pounds does not look on me. So, I'm curious as to your height.

Kudos to you gurl! Deciding to be healthy and it-s powerful (and true) that the game plan to change your life starts in your mindset. Motivation will come and go, but making that commitment for yourself by changing your mindset- that-s the game changer! Blessings to you and keep being inspirational -

My kids already know. you don't call ANYONE fat, or comment on someone's appearance. I raise them to consider the feelings of others. I'm sitting here thinking the comment was a parenting fail, not her fail for being obese. Glad it was the catalyst, and let to her new healthy lifestyle.

Kids say the truth.
My 5yr nephew grabbed my arm fat and said -why-s your arm broked. It should not be like that-
Mannn, now my hearts broked too - my arm arm fat hang so much, this kid thought my arm was broken.

I don't care what anyone says, if a child call me fat, am telling her who's FAT. If its a child think it's ok to embarrase an adult or anyoneso to speak, then I will surely throw it back.

Everybody are doing the same thing. Lots of fun getting fat, blaming somebody died, being poor, nobody admits that they just eat everything available and being lazy.

My heart condition is what kicked off my weight loss journey too but I don-t want kids not looking up to me like either. They just say things though, don-t they!

So inspiring! I hope she manages to keep it off because unfortunately, more than 90% of people put the weight back on when following a low fat, low calorie diet -

Loved the story but why so much repetition? U could have used that time for something else, like More information about how she lost weight.

Am I the only one who is shocked that the heart attack at 26 wasn't the wake up call to lose weight instead of a toddler calling her fat?

This will give bullies more ammunition. Kids making comments are one thing, grown people making comments are another thing

Children have no filter. I swear this lady doesn't even look that bad at 407 as I did at 275. How tall is she really!

it sounds like fat shaming is sometimes more efficient than health problems to motivate people to help themselves.

Well, this just goes to show that when some people get body shamed for being fat, then they become stronger.
