Default My daughter thinks I'm an alien....?!?!?

So, my daughter came home last night after spending Christmas with her dad...she met me in the hall and told me I looked like an alien!!! I asked her why...and she said, "mom...you're getting really skinny and it's weird!!!"

I wasn't sure if that was a compliment or what?

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Im sure she meant well honey. If your kid is like mine they have only know you as being overweight. Its (alien) strange to them to see you like you are now. Keep going honey. Im sure shes so proud of you.

Im sure it was a compliment Kath. I think our kids love us no matter what and my kids had never said anything about me being heavy and fat. They just know us as mom and I think now that we are making changes they see it.

Keep up the great work Kath. Your doing a super job.

Kathy, I'm sure she meant it as a compliment. You are doing great. How could it not have been a compliment?

My daughter went to get clothes out the dryer the other day and asked my DH if these were really mama's jeans? She said they looked so little and that I was getting skinny.

Like Sherry said in her post, she has always known me as being very big, but she sees the new changes in me and she likes it. She came to me and told me what she had told my DH about the jeans and she said that she just wanted to tell me that she was very proud of me. That makes it all worth it! She is my angel!

Kids are a hoot! No telling what they'll say next. I'd probably buy a "Proud to be an Alien" tee shirt just to raz her

How olds' your daughter? Mine is 20 and she tells me that I look "funny" all the time....in fact she doesnt' like it,(jokingly),she tells me I was heavy all her life and now I changed on her. She is not being nasty or careless,she just cant really believe it....my oldest son also says "your are fading away", that is a compliment too. Yesterday at my moms' my sister just out and said "look how skinny u are", I could only say thank-you,I havent really figures out how to respond yet.......Take it all with a smile. Happy New Year. Kathy

LOL Kath, sounds like she has your sense of humor. I am sure she meant it as a compliment. It has been a drastic change and like everyone else has said, those around have to adjust to the change in us also.
